Summary
SUMMARY: Balance "Allow makeshift ropes for reins and yokes, don't use 60 feet of rope for yokes"
Purpose of change
Per discussion on the BN discord, it was pointed out by PoshOctavia that animal-powered wagons can be clunky to get set up in wilderness gameplay due to needing god-tier strings to make reins and yoke.
Describe the solution
cordage
instead ofcordage_superior
.rope_natural_short
instead of 2 instances ofrope_superior
. Not only is it odd to restrict it to only allowing good-quality strings for something so basic, the recipe was demanding 60 feet of rope for something that realistically will likely top out about 24 feet total (see additional information below).STEERABLE
flag withTRACKED
for yokes, allowing them to be installed in vertically without penalty, not just installed in infinitely-wide horizontal fronts like this abomination I made during testing:Describe alternatives you've considered
One other thing that came up was the perpetual running gag of a problem that nails are always needed instead of wooden pegs. As usual, while we could maybe add alternative vehicle parts that use makeshift wooden frames, that in turn use drilling 1 plus some extra wood, in practice this continues to be a problem to write JSON for because the smoothest option would be to allow a recipe or construction to swap in drilling quality depending on component needed.
Testing
Checked affected file for syntax and lint errors.
