South Gate is placed in a posision that is far away from a gate/pad. Positioned between Selen, harro, Last Stand & Feladan it might even be the player town furtest away from anygate!?The lastStand port is fairly close, about 5 with 49speed for me on roads with CD.
But with the accesability toLS by having to port from where you are to first bristugo then toone of the Guild plots and then to LS. In the end it takes its toll on anyevery systemand takes way to long for my taste. So that leaves the option to run from selen as the best one, 3,20 mins with full speed(no disc).
An answer to this without adding a port/pad in SG is to make every townwith gate/pad more accesable from allmost any port, or use places like bristugo or NR(like the old days) as point of access to everywhere. Brisugo isnt atm like some might think. Still some Townscan only be reached by first porting to a guild plot, which is imho absolutly silly.
A sharing of gate with "Forest Guard" or whats its name would also be an option, currently forest Guard is a ghost town on unity, with only 1 plot with buildings, wonder why...
With the enourmous Vault sizes on Unity it was doable to build in SGuntill a week ago when the vault was locked to anyone but the owner. The building there is now a pain in the a.. Butthe vault issueis another disscution.
Yes I know I choose to buy a plot there knowing SG was a romote location, but still like the addition of gate/pad there, giving the town big boost.
Since I play on Unity I dont know if anything has happened with this on NA shards, as we get no communication atm, we know nothing but rumours people haveheard onIRC and things posted here by AE staff.
