Ok, for these changes (merchant ship and "divide the plunder" mode)@Bartolomeu o Portugues, do you want the Santiago to be a pure merchant ship?
And would you want the player to use "divide the plunder" mode or not?
Basically the idea is to NOT make any changes. So the Santiago remains a full merchant ship and the crew therefore will not get grumpy if you don't switch to divide the plunder when you have a lot of money.Ok, for these changes (merchant ship and "divide the plunder" mode)
Yes, there is. If I recall, you can switch to Salary Mode right after you have Divided the Plunder.Is there any way to unsign articles after they have been signed?
When you Divide the Plunder, you keep 10% of the total amount to prepare for your next expedition. You also keep a captain's share in your personal wealth, of course.Is there any way to set some money aside so that it stays with the ship and the crew will not get it? I need a rainy day fund.
After reaching the rank of Commodore, you start receiving land for each promotion.How do you accumulate personal wealth, and therefore fame, as a commissioned officer who never divides plunder? (Several of Hornblower's dialogs refer to people knowing all about his dashing exploits but his actual fame is still somewhere near the bottom of the scale by the time the story ends.)
There is already code in place to do that. I remember seeing it.If you pay by salary, you should get a salary too.
I wouldn't mind something like that either. Would be a lot of work, though.I'd actually like to see more use made of personal money. If you sell a prize ship, some of the money ought to go into your personal money. (In reality prize money was shared between captain, officers and crew, providing a very nice bonus to the regular salary.) Equipment purchases should be paid out of personal money, as should tavern bills.
