38 gun Manila Galleon

[L0M3N]

Anyone know what time period this ship can be found in?
I have never seen one.


Also is there a modifier for how much money
I can sell a ship for?
I just sold a trade brig for 8000...
and it had full hp.
I want a better price for
my prizes.

The Light Manila Galleon is an early ship most common in the 1500's. Look there.

The Spanish Galleons in general are a little rare which is strange considering the large Spanish presence in the Caribbean.

Prize money from captured ships was often quiet poor, Sir Francis Drake complained about it(mainly due to them often being heavily damaged after battle, a share going to 'the crown' etc), but on a few occasions it did make people very rich:

The current system in place in the game has reduced the amount of cash the player recieves to counter the exploit that was here in the game to make 'easy money' - if anything this will trend downwards rather than upwards in coming patches etc(especially if a proper 'share-out-the-loot' system can be implimented at some time).

actually, the justification was that you're trying to sell a stolen ship. people don't want those.

Well I repair my ships before I sell them, and I don't work for
any Crown.
Anyways I just want to edit a variable in my own game.
Can someone tell me where to find it?
