Wind

well that's stupid, it should be within 24 hours of claiming the island where the new island owner can go around and evict people they don't want around or people who have already moved on. Now we gotta either destroy their stuff or wait out the timers which are upto 30 days for some items.

There are things i could not Demo Period some things when i took the island did not even give me the option let alone a 24 hour period to do it in.

Cords please?

could simply require animals be kept in crates causing them not to count as crew while in the crate. When outside the crate make them count as crew.

Please remove this post my crew member is posting a better version of what i said.
