Usage

Although rope bridges can be only one tile wide, they function as any other bridge and can be passed over by large carts and wagons.

Unlike other bridges, rope bridges sag down in the middle, sagging less when the planner has more Body Strength. This can make them impractical over shallow areas, or between areas with significant difference in height. See Bridges for the sag percentage chart.

Parts of the Bridge

  • Rope bridge crown-the center parts of a rope bridge.
  • Rope abutment-the section of the bridge that connects to the ground.
  • Rope double abutment-only used for one tile rope bridges.
