xrowboat is a Vintage Story mod by xeth. xrowboat adds a two-seat rowboat with keyboard steering, optional oars, and faster travel when both passengers row together.
Why this mod is worth installing
Choose it if you want a simple water vehicle for two players and prefer direct WASD control over more elaborate boating mechanics.
What xrowboat adds
The mod introduces a basic rowboat with two seats. Right-click places it on the water, while sneaking and right-clicking lets you pick it up again.
Movement follows a straightforward keyboard scheme: W accelerates forward, S moves in reverse, and A or D turns the boat. Either the front or rear passenger can steer when the relevant options are enabled.
By default, controlling the boat requires a Rowboat oar held in both hands. This requirement can be disabled for a more immediate, game-like control style.
A second player can row at the same time, giving the boat more speed than a lone passenger. The boat also follows the game's normal water height movement, including travel up and down water surfaces.
