A '''large cart''' is a mobile [[container]] used to transport cargo or [[player]]s dragged by a player or led by up to 2 [[animalanimals]]s. A large cart needs to be at least 10 [[QL]] for the owner to be able to [[embark]] onto it as "commander".
== Subcomponents ==
== Hitching ==
To [[hitch]] an animal to a cart, [[Lead (action)|lead]] it with [[rope]], right-click the cart, and select "Hitch". Up to two animals can be hitched but some animals may be too young, weak (underfed), and/or old to drag a cart.
=== Unhitching ===
To [[unhitch]] an animal from a cart, embark the cart, right-click the animal, and select "Unhitch".
=== Hitching notes ===
== Notes ==
* The first plank is lost if the initial attachment is [[fail]]edfailed.
* The [[quality]] of the cart affects its [[decay]] rate.
* The volume of items will affect how many can fit into a cart (see next section).
* Although carts cannot be dragged in [[water tile]]s, they can be pushed.
* 47.23 kg of [[dye]] is needed to paint a large cart.
* The maximum weight a player can [[drag]] in a large cart is determined by the formula: ([[strength|Body Strength]] * 7 - carried weight) * 10 - 240.* Large carts have a "[[Manage]] vehicle" option to set who (friends, village, or everyone) can drive (embark as "commander"), mount (embark/ride as passenger), access [[inventory]] hold, manage the settings, and transfer ownership. However, when opened, that [[name]] can't be changed, unfortunately.
* A [[keel section]] cannot fit in large carts.
* Can not be locked anymore.
== Building items inside carts ==
This is a precarious thing to do as sometimes an item must be on the ground in order to be continued or [[finish]]edfinished. Other times, the item may be too heavy to remove from the cart once finished or too heavy to remove to add the last piece, leaving the player with a 99% complete item that can never be used. A patch was applied in October, 2008 making it impossible to finish most items inside carts, including, but not restricted to, fountains.
A few amusing things that used to be able to be finished inside carts: [[altar]]s, [[fountain]]s, [[guard tower]]s, [[forge]]s (could not light), and [[mailbox]]es.
