I agree, there are a lot of potential downsides and the player base would tear it apart. Beyond severely reducing the usability of shops, it would also remove a lot of incentive for people to purchase Captain. Personally, i buy captain primarily for the teleport perks, which would be eliminated under that kind of system thereby reducing the servers income. Still a fun concept.

That is indeed correct, it would make teleporting like that awful, However, with slight changes (I.E no teleporting with weapons, explosives, armour items in bulk etc etc) it could work if given some thought and work into it

For example making a big port for traders at the shops
Making certain help for non official stores like better claims, or something that makes pvp disabled in a region.
basically helping the community be a little bit less reliant on the filthy rich and actually having some kind of goal with ships and stuff other than-

“hey I heard you can buy rly cheap wood at /shop 7”

“Really? Lemme go there real quick and sell it at the opposite end of the world in like 3 minutes because i have a tp there”

See, if any mods, admins, helpers, etc etc are reading this then I just want to say that this would give quite a big meaning to the word “pirate” Cause, well…. unless you really put lots of interest in it theres not much to do that fits the point and meaning of piratecraft, sure, you can raid ships and do stuff like that but that is rare, FORCING people to go on ships would result in a lot more of the cool and unique features of PC to be used.

This is for staff, I dont know if it will still remain in the new update but pmc has a bug with cauldrons that stepping inside makes you glitch and hard to get out, leading to be kicked and having to wait 10 secs to rejoin again. Annoying for brewing for me

Or we just keep it as it is since being able to teleport everywhere and at anytime or distance makes you safe a TON of time. Also it’s very annoying in my opinion.. I tested it on other servers.

A new thread on TP restrictions or a lack thereof might be good so we don’t clog up this thread, though without buy in from the higher powers this is all purely hypothetical. I never expected to get this much thoughtful conversation out of it to be honest, I expected all captains to try and shut it down entirely since teleport perks are one of the main benefits of cap
