==Description==
*The wagoner provides a way of sending bulk items (e.g. bricks, etcanything that can fit in a large or small crate) to a particular person in a semi-automated way.
*Wagoners operate a special wagon for their deliveries.
*When making a delivery, the wagoner will drive to the collection point, load their wagon, and drive to the destination, unload the goods and then return to home camp.
*Wagoners will not start another delivery until they have gone back to their home camp.
* The wagoner will then begin the delivery process again.
* You may need to use multiple wagoners to efficiently move your freight
==Wagoner camp==
* Upon placing a wagoner, they will spawn a camp; this consists of some furniture, a campfire and a place to park the wagoner’s wagon when the wagoner is not on deliveries. While idle, the wagoner may be found sitting at his campfire or asleep on a straw bed in their tent.
* While idle, the wagoner may be found sitting at his campfire or asleep on a straw bed in their tent. * The [[waystone ]] becomes the wagoner’s ‘home’ [[waystone]], and the wagoner becomes a citizen of the deed (similar to [[traders]]). * The camp layout can not be changed and its rotation is determined by the link it has.

==Sending items==
To set up a delivery, crates need to be placed into a [[wagoner container]] (which holds a maximum of 20 [[large crate|large crates]], 34 [[small crate|small crates]], or a combination).
* Ensure that the wagoner container is planted next to the waystone. Any [[waystone]] connected to the highway system works, it does not have to be close to a wagoner.* This can be done by activating the container and right clicking on the [[waystone ]] and clicking plant.
* Select a receiving player for the delivery; that player will receive a notification that they have a delivery pending (similar to mail notifications).
* The recipient needs to then accept the delivery by going to any [[waystone ]] and right-clicking it and selecting "Accept Delivery."
* Once the recipient has accepted the delivery, the job will be added to the wagoner's queue, and they will start working if they are not busy.
* The sender will then immediately get an event message confirming the shipment's acceptance by the recipient.
*Resizing a deed so their camp falls outside the deed boundaries will return the contract to the owner's inventory.
*Wagoners may be set to public or private availability, via their permissions (set by the owner), with options for deed and alliance members.
*You can obtain a wagoner contract from a trader the [[silver store]] for 10 [[Bank of Wurm|silver]] coins, allowing you to place your wagoner on your deed.
*This gives your deed (or alliance) their own wagoner to use for pickups and deliveries, which speeds up the time it takes for a delivery.
*Wagoners use the new highway system to navigate, so the origin and destination need to be connected via a network of [[waystone]]s and [[catseye]]s
* The camp site is created by using a wagoner contract on a (dedicated) waystone, on deed.
* Wagoner's [[waystone ]] must be placed around a cul-de-sac waypoint (only 1 catseye link, no waystones on the border of the camp). * Wagoner's [[waystone ]] and its camp must be on a flat 2×2 tile deeded area (all four tile borders that touch the tile corner the [[waystone ]] is planted on has to be deeded).
* Above the water level.
* Any containers that were sealed for the deliveries will stay sealed, but can be unsealed by the sender.
* Queued deliveries can be reassigned via the manage-deliveries menu if a wagoner is dismissed. Deliveries reassigned this way will not be refunded and will be carried out normally.
* Payment for delivery is taken from the recipient once they accept the delivery. From there, it is securely held at the [[waystone ]] until the delivery is successfully physically made. At that time, it is then released to the sender.
