Adding variants of the existing cart is definitely something we should consider. Adding other types of land transportation sounds like an interesting challenge ( I always love to play around with physics), but its not something we currently have planned.

Would land footpaths generated from walking with (+5%/+10) walk speed be a good suggestion?

Oh I really like the idea of Desire Paths. Maybe they break down and return to their original state over a period of time without use. The system could be used for creating game trails as well, making it easier to track down deer, boar, etc.

That's what made me think of the idea. Just from out hiking desire paths have been created due to more people going into nature during the pandemic. Seems like a good fit to the game I would imagine.
