    I cant believe I'm saying the 2 words I hate the most "immersion breaking".

    Our POT Forlorn Peak (Mountain Template) is connected to Rifts end (Island Template). The connection is via boat from Rifts end to a land locked wagon in the middle of the Mountain biome. :confused:

    Also I cannot find the connection from NorthWood to Forlon Peak:(

    Is this some sort of Quantum POTting?
    You're freaking me out man.

    Are you using one of these wagons to get to your POT?

    And how would you expect to get to a mountain from an island? :p Clearly in the process of changing scenes, we moved past showing you the mundane details of reaching the shore of the mainland, trading in your boat for a wagon, and then taking the wagon the rest of the way to Forlorn Peak.

    Your immersion needs a healthy dose of imagination. :p

    Regarding Northwood: After investigating your town's integration, it seems Northwood was considered too far away for interconnection to be accepted.

    When I get back from work, I will set up a private conversation to review with the Dev's. I believe the pot application show how our imaginations made it feasible to have a landlocked mountain biome connected to a grassland island template.

    Not a bug. A landlocked mountain scene has no internal access for a boat teleporter placement. Same as an island template does not allow wagons. Working as intended.

    Attenwood speaks the true.

    For scenes that have water which extends beyond the playable space, travel to islands is accomplished from the docks by boat. If a scene is landlocked, then a wagon is used. A switch from wagon to boat presumably occurs during the transition between scenes.
