A thought occurred rummaging one's mind through some encounters which happen in the server: When a ship gets boarded, it is not considered "hostile" enough to allow for PvP, although most of the times this scenario goes like this:
-Ships connect
-Four+ fully warded people (sometimes with clearly evil summons) disembark into the ship, cluttering it greatly
-"Surrender for X or die"
-"No"
-PvP ensues
And while thinking how to instead change it so that there wouldn't be these awkward situations (especially in cramped spaces that ships are), what about adding a way to shout while the ships still haven't fully connected, say, through a rudimentary loudcone or just with the sheer power of lungs? This would help to have the meaningful RP before actual contact happens, to avoid the awkward situations, as well as give some time to prepare for those who are getting boarded, in case it does go awry.
Considering both:
a) Speedies and other messaging ways exist
b) Telescopes exist already in other places
Would it be possible to add similar functionality to ships?

Re: Shouting across the ships before boarding them
I think we could add a 'shout' point that spawns on the side of the vessel while two ships are connected.
Approved.
Approved.
