Fixed Naval Ketch interior is bugged

[Homo eructus]

I was playing Free Play as a Spanish naval officer. I got my first promotion to Alférez de fragata and was given a naval ketch. I wanted to check if the stuff I left in the weaponslocker and chest in my last ship were transfered to the new one, but when I try to enter the captain's cabin or crew's quarters from the deck, I can't interact with the doors. I can got to the captain's cabin with fast travel but I appear under the floor of the cabin, knee-deep in water. My earlier ship, a hoy, worked fine.

Confirmed. The reloads on your ship deck don't work either, which is quite odd.

Checking ships_init.c, I see that this is the ONLY ship in the game without a cargo hold that DOES have a cabin.
Other ships without a cargo hold are the tartanes, but they don't have a cabin at all.

To fix, open PROGRAM\Ships\ships_init.c and find:

//-------------------------------------------------------------------------
// HMS Nonsuch 1654 by pgargon - Naval Ketch
//-------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Armada -->
   makeref(refShip,ShipsTypes[n]);
   n++;
   refShip.Name       = "KetchNavy";
   refShip.sname       = "Nonsuch";
   refShip.Walk       = "Nonsuch";
   refShip.id        = refShip.Name;
   refShip.Class       = 8;
   refShip.Cannon       = CANNON_TYPE_CARRONADE_LBS12;
   refShip.MaxCaliber     = 6;
   refShip.Weight       = Tonnes2CWT(190);//BB was 100, increased based on normal Ketch + some 'hardening'
   refShip.Capacity     = 250;
   refShip.CannonsQuantity = 8;
   refShip.Cannons.Borts.cannonf.qty = 0;
   refShip.Cannons.Borts.cannonb.qty = 0;
   refShip.MaxCrew       = 38;//BB was 24, increased vs normal Ketch
   refShip.MinCrew       = 8;//BB was 5
   refShip.Price       = 28600;//BB was 15600, increased vs normal Ketch
   refShip.HP         = 1000;
   refShip.SP         = 100;

   refShip.WaterLine = 0.0;
   refShip.SpeedDependWeight = 0.2;
   refShip.SubSeaDependWeight = 0.6;
   
   refShip.GeraldSails.rey_a2   = 1;
   refShip.GeraldSails.rey_b2   = 1;   

   refShip.BigPicTexName   = "SHIPS2"; // Armada
   refShip.BI.Tex = 10;
   refShip.BI.Pic = 8;
   refShip.QDeck = "ShipDeck4";
   refShip.CannonsDeck = 0;
   refShip.CargoHold = 0;

Change that 0 on the last line there to a 1.

Edit PROGRAM\console.c to look like this:

void ExecuteConsole()
{
   ref pchar = GetMainCharacter();
   ref ch;
   int i;
   int limit;
                       // Case 0 = Enable reload (useful when you get stuck on boarding) + Set player type (if you cannot move anymore)
   switch(1)                 // Case 1 = Various test and cheat codes
   {                     // Case 2 = Location coordinate information
     case 1:                 // Case 3 = Automatic instant cheats in port
                       // Case 4 = Instant teleport to Hendrick Vanderdecken

     // Give ship
     // ------------------
       for (i = 0; i <= GetCompanionQuantity(PChar); i++) {
         limit = GetCompanionIndex(PChar, i);
         if (limit < 0) continue;
         ch = GetCharacter(limit);
         GiveShip2Character(ch,ch.ship.type,ch.ship.name,-1,ch.ship.stats.nation,true,true);
       }

Load your savegame and do the following:
1. Press F11 to apply your change in ships_init.c in your savegame
2. Press F12 to update your own ship

I just did that in my own game version and it behaves much better now.

That's what I call fast response. Thanks, I'll try the fix tomorrow.

It happened to be a simple solution.
