Advanced Customization: James R. Barker (Tregurtha-class Laker)

[topaz mesa]

hello
MV James R. Barker is an American bulk carrier that operates on the upper four North American Great Lakes. Built in 1976 by the American Ship Building Company at Lorain, Ohio, the ship is 1,004 feet (306 m, 9 feet shorter than the Tregurtha) long, 50 feet (15 m) high and 105 feet (32 m) wide. Like the MV Mesabi Miner, a ship of the same design, it is owned and operated by the Interlake Steamship Company and was named for Interlake’s Chairman of the Board, James R. Barker.

The default option would be the Paul R. Tregurtha, with the other option being the James R. Barker, giving 1 less capacity and a different horn.

There’s already a lake freighter in the game?

[flint heart]

i feel like this is kinda unnecessary tbh just for a slight capacity change and a different horn sound

the horn sound i contributed to be given to the tregurtha class was taken from the james r barker so

if it gets any horn sound it will be that one

i think this is pretty cool, they should add this

[steep flame]

Any significant visual differences compared to the Tregurtha?

If not then it's not worth it

[topaz mesa]

no, not really (the Mesabi Miner is the same size as the Barker, 9 feet shorter than the Tregurtha)

At most the horn will just be an advanced customization

[flint heart]

idk if it warrants an advanced customization just to change the horn though

that seems like more effort than it's worth

[swift current]

doesnt seem that bad

it could also change the horn model or something
