    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    I play in the Colonial Powers atm and I find most boardings go rather smoothly. Again it just depends. I have 1 Officer and 2 Sergeants who accompany me everywhere including boardings along with the crew who are armed to the teeth with Swords and Muskets so generally speaking we put up a good...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    I rather enjoy the current way soldiers are armed. Should be a bit historical. So The British are armed with muskets and dirk/bayonets and such. The loot you gain should reflect what you saw on the person anyway. Captains seem to have random weapons as well as the ones you seen them using...

    WIP The Curse of the Aztec Gold - Ideas, Suggestions

    At the present moment you have to return all the 882 coins to the chest , yes. I think the way it works is, when a coin does randomly spawn on a ship as loot when you have boarded her and looked in a chest and it is there, it deducts a coin from the chest with the other coins. Therefore when you...

    WIP The Curse of the Aztec Gold - Ideas, Suggestions

    I agree with you there Pieter. That's exactly what I would like to see changed and even improved upon. Make it so the coins are not automatically added to your inventory but if you do take it then of course you should be cursed :) It would be nice to have encounters of cursed pirates to try...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    This is true, and i agree with both comments. I'd say go for price increase by Ship size and class. Makes perfect sense

    WIP The Curse of the Aztec Gold - Ideas, Suggestions

    Yea thanks Armada, That last sentence was what i was meaning. The system is fine as it is and i like it being tied to the movie. Just the coin forcibly being put in inventory after opening random ship loot chest even if you don't move it there i hope could be changed. Also the idea of cursed...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    I like the second idea there. You could also tie the upgrades to national standing perhaps? So if your like a Captain of a certain Nation you unlock certain upgrades as you advance? Or even simply the whole blueprint discovery idea, meeting people who have them or know of them would suffice. I...

    WIP The Curse of the Aztec Gold - Ideas, Suggestions

    Well by sink I meant if you boarded and looted a random chest and it had a coin in it, it should be left there if you don't take it instead of being forcibly put in your inventory and if you decide to sink that ship after the transfer screen and all then it should go down with the ship. The...

    WIP The Curse of the Aztec Gold - Ideas, Suggestions

    Hmmn. If there was a way to rid of it apart from the whole island thing it'd be pretty cool. But then at the same time wouldn't that mean that there would be one less coin to return to the Main Chest on the island. How would you track that bandit down if you ever had to get that coin to put...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    I would say that logically it would make sense for the ship to cost more than the upgrades but whatever fits the mod better I would say. The more historically accurate the better I say :p. I suppose percentage calculations would work. @Talisman that makes sense and thank you for letting me...

    WIP Officer System Modifications

    Was the Officer system ever completely finished? I noticed in the files that there were secondary/sub-Officer roles that were never implemented into the game. I think current system works fine just was curious if was ever going to be put in game :)

    WIP The Curse of the Aztec Gold - Ideas, Suggestions

    Hey everyone, Decided to make a topic to discuss potential changes or even suggestions to the Curse effects on the Aztec Gold. I think the Current system is perfectly reasonable except for a couple things: Current changes I think should be made: > If the cursed coins appear on a random...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    Well I do agree that the system could be changed possibly? I understand the whole returning thing but when it appears randomly on a ships deck chest and you do NOT touch it like I did, and yet it automatically appears in your inventory, isn't that just a bit not right. If I took it fair enough...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    Thanks for the comments :) I guess its not that bad, as long as the curse is removed if I take that wretched coin to this mysterious island and put it in that Chest which I assume would have 1 coin missing :O Hopefully I can find this island as I have no clue what bearings to set :p Guess this...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    Well I thought of this. 1. Basically if it IS kept as a loot item that has a chance of spawning then, if possible, make the curse effective only when you take it from that chest that it has appeared in. Instead of as it is now when you open a chest and it is in there you get the full curse...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    Sure, I am playing the Jack Aubrey one, modified to my liking/preferences. Basically changed to Colonial Powers and made in British Navy starting etc. Nothing major. Hopefully the change in period has nothing to do with it :/ Anyway here are log files. They are quite long, just search "Curse"...

    Mod Release Build 14 Beta 3 Progress

    Hello, Just been playing for days on Build Mod. 1 thing that I noticed, which I am not sure if intentional, is that the Cursed Aztec Gold can sometimes be found on ships and looking at the compile log it has a random chance of spawning as loot. Not to sure if I agree with this because as...

    Solved A few Questions

    Yea I am not sure why, but it's fine anyway. Main thing I would like to see progressed in next build maybe is fixed muskets and the graphic squares/flickering that I currently due to the flag masts it would seem.

    Solved A few Questions

    I do indeed get soldiers on deck, cargo hold, gun decks and ship deck. Boarding too. Just not the crew deck.
