Sam traveling in a Zip-line.
The Zip-line is a structure that allow for quick vertical and horizonal traversal between points once interacted with.
Overview[]
The Zip-line is a useful structure used for travel long distance safe and quickly. In order to function, two zip-line anchors must be placed within a certain range of one another and be free of obstructions. A connection to another anchor will be successful if a blue line is shown between them, with multiple zip-line anchors may be connected to one. The default maximum range between zip-line towers is 300 meters, but upgrading an anchor to Lv. 2 will increase this range to 350 meters while Lv. 3 will provide better durability against Timefall. The structure takes 500 chiral network points regardless of its level.
