    Need Help You want to help but can't code?

    I believe @Mirsaneli almost finished that one? Anyway, first and foremost I'd like to get my hands bloodied with the code (flowing through the veins of the game!), so to speak. :duel: Thus, if possible, I'd rather do something with a more heavy focus on actual coding than playtesting - so...

    Included in Build Modify "False Flag" Behaviour While Ashore

    Well, short of us finding proper speakers of four other main languages, and translating half of the game into those (a task as monumentous as it is of little practical use), I agree that we could skip the actual translation of dialogs and go on to the more important and interesting part...

    Included in Build Modify "False Flag" Behaviour While Ashore

    I've slept on this issue, and now I think I should chime in. I believe the issue is that there are really two "flags" in the game - the actual flag you fly on your ship, and the nationality "flag" you display to people. Both can and should be used to fool others, and thus should be changeable...

    Need Help You want to help but can't code?

    (A few other similar posts have been made here before, so with heavy heart I'll transgress the letter of the title of this thread, hoping to stay true to its spirit...) I'd like to help, and I think I could code. (I have the right mindset/training, and, as I've looked at the code in various...

    Solved Maximum Ship Speed

    Hmmm. So what is better, from that point of view, big and (almost) empy cargo hold, or small and full/half-full? (Assuming the same weight of goods loaded in both cases.) And does ship HP in any way factor in directly correlate with ship's own weight (further reducing the speed)? E.g., ship...

    Solved Maximum Ship Speed

    @Pieter Boelen Thank you! For some reason, I didn't expect that that code would be "out in the open". I'll have this method in mind. For the record (if anyone else would seek this solution): It's in PROGRAM\SEA_AI\AIShip.c, with ARCADE_MULT_SPEED parameter block. On the issue: I've tried...

    Solved Maximum Ship Speed

    Yeah, that's what I expected, except it seemed a little too slow even for realistic speeds. Oh well. As far as I could find, PROGRAM\InternalSettings.c has the various realism/arcade settings, but unfortunately it appears that only the arcade mode has a speed multiplier (tied directly to the...

    Solved Maximum Ship Speed

    Greetings! I'm an old fan of Akellas's Pirate games, having played probably all of them, and I was very excited to find this mod and try it out. Several questions arose during the gameplay and were subsequently answered through searching these forums and combing through the mod files, but one...
