Expand description
The trader boat. See docs/TRADE.md, “The boat”.
The boat comes in along the map’s first river from off the map, takes a water path past its trading post’s “boat” point (where it docks), and leaves along the river’s tail.
One state step of the original measures the route point against itself: a length of 0 that is never below 0, so its jump ahead never happens and it always returns true. There is nothing to port for it.
Original: BoatComponent: FUN_140047160, FUN_140047200, FUN_1400ac590; the step that
does nothing is FUN_140045af0.
