+Travel time accumulates while you're logged off as one of the [[Offline Chores]].  You can see how much Travel Time you have available at the top of the '''Self > Navigation''' window.
 Accumulating travel time allows you to travel any time, instead of waiting for a chariot to become available.  (See [[Travel#Chariots|Chariots]] above for details.)

 Chariots may be used in two ways: At specific times for free, or at any other time at a cost in offline travel time. Most routes are available for free travel once every 10-20 minutes. The cost in offline travel time and time remaining until free travel is available may be checked at the chariot stop.

 == On foot ==
-The simplest (if not fastest) way to get around is on foot. Your base travel speed is approximately 16 feet per second off-road; travel on roads is slightly faster at 20 feet per second. Running speed may be increased by increasing certain attributes: Higher dexterity allows you to run faster off-road, and higher speed allows you to run faster on-road. At 7 points of dexterity, off-road travel speed is the same as on-road speed. Carrying more than your natural dexterity (i.e. without food) permits in bulk will negate the off-road speed bonus from dexterity.

 Steep slopes or deep water will block foot travel. Ferries can be constructed to cross narrow rivers.
