User blog:Paladin Aladin/That lonely Chest on the small island

south of the players workshop is something very special ... everytime when walking or riding the way nearby, it pokes in the eye ... "come, get me :)" ... the first thousand playthroughs I've waited fingersnipping until I got the Robopig Rider, to get that chest. Then I've read in a forum of a german computer game magazine about a trick with a jumping horse - but not really explained, so I failed with several attemps and considered it as a hoax. Then I've read that comment on the Wiki-page, and despite my understanding of english language is far away from being perfect, that gave me the crucial hint, how to manage it with a horse : "and dismount mid air". So I got a goal : to verify that method by myself. And after appr. 15 to 20 unsuccessful attempts in the evening of September 07. I got it ... starting on top of that narrow hill near that smallest gap towards the island, jumping a millisecond after speed-riding downhill towards the water and dismounting before falling in the water ... after that each time disturbing sequence when trying to dismount midair and awaking on the nearest bank (up to this moment always on mainland), I finally stood on the island. But since I've tried it appr. at 10:00 in the morning (ingame time) after fulfilling all my morning duties, I learned, that there is really no way back from the island to the mainland with a horse. So I canceled this day without saving, loaded it new to verify my success and did it another time ... with now only appr. 10 attempts. And therefor is the hint, I wrote on September 08. in the morning, to try it shortly before automaticly falling asleep at 03:00 in the morning ... so no time wasted and the chest finally opened without Robopig Rider :)
