1. Give everyone enough Riding to ride a moose or donkey or sheep or
whatever.
2. Add public stables where one can rent a moose or whatever. Make it be
pretty cheap.
3. Make sure that most areas can be reached without entering water(to get to
the area I mean) so that way people can ride their mooses to the areas
4. Sell mount food cheap

5. And, make sure mounts can enter the ferries This may already be the case...
I haven't tested yet.

Rather than sell mount food cheap, make those moose/donkeys/sheep/goats/whateve
r graze on grass or weed or other vegetables that grow nearby.

As for all backgrounds getting riding, I'm not responding to that.. Or to all
areas being land accessible.

You can rent a mule or a riding horse in squire/cavalier guild, check it out.
Also, get buy feed and a feed bag to make it easy to main. Check it out.

However! Right now I don't think you can take a mount on a ferry, which is
_bad_ for non beastmasters/knights. Please fix, or add rental locations on
the other continents. Also, no idea if mounts work with wanderer spells, but
if not please fix so they do, as mounts work with nav spells.

1) No. Nomads get enough riding to ride horses bareback, civilized gets enough
to ride horses with a saddle. Other backgrounds don't get riding because it
doesn't fit the theme of the background, or any of their guilds, or the fact
that they all have navs.
2) Public stables is a project I will get to. I promise.
3) If you mean "most areas within the same continent" I'll remind you that
wasn't even the case on our former rinky-dink little continent. It probably
won't be the case here, either. However, large/tall mounts can ride through
deeper water (swamps and R-rivers) more easily, and some can swim or fly.
4) Mount food can be bought from other players, however, I'll put it in the
public stables too.
5) Yeah, I haven't tested it either.

When I said that areas should be able to be reached by land, I just meant in
general areas should be accessible without crossing larger rivers etc. I did
not mean every single area ever. If a character with low Riding can't get to
their usual areas riding their baby pony, then they are not going to use their
baby pony and mounts will not be as useful for the average player. I just
think mounts should be more useful to the average player.
