Useless shipyards

Isn't somehow unfair for some castles having shipyards, while others have more useful stuff. There is not point to have them only in certain castles, all or nothing. If there is water around, there are external shipyards anyway. And usually towns are not near water, so you almost never have a chance to even build them.

I know this is an old thread, but anyway...this is about the shipyards that are on the map, not in towns:

I killed the guard and flagged the shipyard and bought the ship. I was ready to do some sailing with my ship! But then....
The ship spawned in an angle that makes it impossible to board the ship! The terrain blocks the path to it! And you can't buy another one because it says Cannot build another ship. So it's stuck
The only way is to have summon boat spell with expert water magic so you can move the ship, but that defeats the purpose of having that shipyard in the first place...

Anyone else had the same situation or am I the only one?

All towns should have access to shipyards, as it was in Heroes 2.

@Kaban0ssi Then the mapmaker snowed up, he placed the shipyard so ships are unaccessible. Perhaps you can edit the map and place the shipyard correctly or perhaps not?

Is this actually true? If so, that makes me wonder, what other buildings affect turret damage?

The wiki has a list. Which seems to be unbelievably terribly formatted .

It takes the fun out of trying a new map when you have to find every shipyard manually and check that they placed correctly, and then play it. You see the whole map before you can try it
Some sort of update that makes the ship placement smarter or the range larger on how far the ship can spawn from the shipyard.

Not all: Horde buildings, upgrades for, creature dwellings and mage guilds that are above level 1.

Those wont give bonuses to arrow towers
