Tweak to Traps

The MIB update is great and long over due. After you have fished up a few and get back to your Monger quests...LOOK OUT!

I have placed hundreds of traps since the latest patch. I have not lost a single trap to sinking. However 50 to 60% of them come back empty and all that do 'catch' are a single *bob*. One Critter per trap. This has drastically slowed down my trapping and I don't like it!

:yell:

I suspect this is due to water tiles getting depleted now.

They should have left traps out of this particular change.

They DID leave traps out of the change:
All fishing will now act like every other resource gathering in the game. If an area is fished out you will get a message stating so with an exception to Lobsters. Lobster and Crabs are considered as different resources and are taken from a different resource table
Personally I'm having a much happier time with traps, I have lost one, but I didn't always pull the whole lot out when the first ones started to bob. The ones I left in the water bobbed later.
