Doesn't this trailer seem weak to rain?

Here I thought he was going to reinvent the train. All roads lead to trains, after all

For trains you really need a strong internal scalable power source. Horses aren't that scalable nor internal. Each time you add a horse you get less power than any previous horse as the linkage and keeping the horses synchronized becomes more difficult. That gives you an upper limit on the number of carriages you can connect in making a horse drawn train, and you don't really see much gain over having each carriage drawn by dedicated horses. There certainly is some gain there in getting rid of a driver and their seat, but there should be a crossover point where the gain from removing drivers is lost due to inefficiencies.

The leaves are unnecessary. The slime is already in there. It should do its job thoroughly and clean all the way to the source.

Slime and leaves are unnecessary since everyone but him uses magic to clean themselves.

MC created a military tent.
Anyway...feels like this arc was written when the original author had a camping or camper related video on TV, then adapted the content to the story to fill page and keep the daily releases on the web novel site, useless arc to fill time and nothing more.
Is like when a isekai suddenldy have a overly detailed cooking chapter, everyone that reads them knows how weird they feel as they don't match the general vibe of the story, is largely know that web novel authors just put a food channel on TV and then write something using that when they get a writer block.

Sir, i can't wait to see next chapter pls upload it soon

Although it's fully explained, the design looks fragile and can easily break, especially if its on full capacity and moves on rough ground.

Remember that they're using materials from the Forest of Death, where the trees are so strong that not even dragons can take them down easily. Material strengths are way overtuned for something like this.

Even if the wood is durable, how elastic it is? Remember the wooden swords are made of same wood and its been breaking.

Furthermore, how about an idea when it will gets back to be carriage mode? All the macho elves have to lift the bottom and someone must retract the wheels? Very troublesome for unnecessary gimmick.
One of the way that I can think of, is to not make the carriage comes down, instead put some 'LEGS'/support to reinforce the carriage bottom and make it stay in place, maybe add a foldable step ladder. Else, having a high ground in wild camping is a HIGH plus.

It's practically just a very BIG cabinet.

Yeah my thought exactly, especially during the 'landing' part where the wheels extend backward and forward. Thats like a couple tons all focus on the that single point between the wheels.

Not to mention that the support frame then has to bend significantly as it is lowered. Right there is a weakness just waiting to snap as those hinges have to support the entire weight of the carriage alone, and not flex or bend out of alignment too.

They didn't really show it either, but that carriage also has to be counterweighted for that swingout. Literally half its size (and the long way too) is on only a few hinges, and is holding up an entire kitchen's worth of weight. And that isn't even considering how the hell that entire half will remain supported and stablized when in transport mode, as it cannot be welded directly to the frame, since the frame itself has to also be able to slide forwards and backwards.

This also implies that the entire carriage is being pulled exclusively by locking pins too, as the frame cannot be directly attached to the carriage's body. I get its going to be pins forged by elves and dwarves in a magical setting, but even still, those pins better be made of diamonds coated in adamantium, because god forbid one of them breaks, gets a bend, or dents mid transit.

And since they are going to be moving on mainly unpaved roads that MC dug, that storage area is still a terrible idea. Sure, the design is slightly better than just an open bookshelf, but that still won't be enough to prevent every loose object or ingredient in those open, slanted bins from bouncing all over the place the moment they hit even a single pothole. They should have at least included a small cargo net to cover each bin with.

The material may be strong, but physics are still doubting the strength and longevity of those hinged sections.

dammit he made a food truck instead of limousine

 

[CharAznable]

Can tell the author had fun designing that stuff but clearly has no clue how to lay out an rv. Water would never be in a tank at the top, the carriage would roll over from a gentle curve like SUVs in the Simpsons.
