There 'could' be one timer, but it opens up the possibility of this situation:
A player is inactive for 15 days with his cart on tribe land. The tribe leader moves the cart off tribe land and drops it so that it becomes unsafe. The cart instantly becomes unsafe, thus abandoned.
I could allow a tribe leader to claim a cart entirely when it reaches the Deserted state, since at that point all the contents could be used. I would need to set up an additional command for this because the tribe leader could still choose at that point to just move the cart around without claiming it. Additional feedback on this situation is welcome.
