    Tweaking what happens, when the plunder is divided?

    Sorry for digging this one out. But it seems the code has changed slightly ever since. What bit of code would I have to cut out in order to get rid of the on the fly auto repair when dividing the plunder?

    Being a pirate

    @Pieter With trouble ashore you mean the civilians or guards recognizing you, I trust. Just always have in mind where the nearest exit is. Than you will be a-okay.^^ With “endgame” I mean more of a difficulty curve. But then again, I of course am not likely to be very representative of the...

    Being a pirate

    Generally I do like the emphasis of there being various playing styles. Maybe you guys could implement a smuggler playing style in the future. But onto the topic of this thread: Being a pirate is way too easy imho. Fun, but very easy. Especially as you go on. Why is it for example, that I...

    Melee Madness

    Thanks for the heads-up. Both seem like feasible solutions. Maybe I should combine the two. So that I reach 10 melee upon striking a bandits little finger with a shovel.^^

    Melee Madness

    Hey guys, have you nerfed the progression of how fast Melee is improving compared to older versions? Because it sure feels like it. Not really a fan of that. Because leveling up in general seems as swift as it always was. Which means that your opposition is scaling with your level, leaving...

    Unconfirmed Bug I am back! And so are some bugs.

    Nevermind, my flag related problem (and other occurences of minor weirdness) were probably down to me not installing the game properly.

    I can't reach to go from deck to sea.

    Lol, so that explains the weirdness in my game. Mind you, it's still perfectly playable. And new enough for me, since I didn't play in quite a while. Pardon the confusion. o_O:D

    Unconfirmed Bug I am back! And so are some bugs.

    Hi there! It's not as bad as it sounds. It doesn't happen often and it doesn't seem to get in the way of the functionality of the game. It's basically just a matter of inaccurate display. Irritating only for mere mortals like me. What is also weird is that after taking a ship, it is displayed...

    I can't reach to go from deck to sea.

    If I am not mistaken, after installation of the default game you run the BUILD installer, then you unpack the big archive into the root folder of your game. Then you do the same with the latest patch (extra fix). All three can be found here. What is important is that you don't install the game...

    I can't reach to go from deck to sea.

    Did you tell Malcolm that you remember all the stuff and that he is free to go? Because if you don't do that or sail into the storm right away (the three options that you are offered in the very first dialog) you basically have to follow him around. I think that was a new spin to the tutorial if...

    Unconfirmed Bug I am back! And so are some bugs.

    Hi mates! I got around to fire up my ol' lappy and play some much desired POTC Build. I ran the most current installer and unpacked the according archives and then the latest patch on top of it. And something is awry. The flags sometimes randomly change and are not consistent with the...

    Abandoned Order Specific Ship to be Built

    Hey guys, hello there. Signing in after quite a while. I had an idea, that I wanted to suggest. Wouldn't it be possible to introduce ship building into the Build mod? Not that I know jack shit about the ins and outs of programming. But all the required set pieces, that I could think of, are...

    Abandoned Order Specific Ship to be Built

    This is also something for B15 Shipyards will have some ships in stock cause they are captured by you or someone else. But most ships which are sold will take time to build. So when buying a ship you have to order it and depending on the size it will take up to several weeks to build the actual...

    Fixed Iron Man Mode: Tiger Statuette gives Acc. bonus

    Hey guys, I encountered another bug. Or probably more like something that slipped your attention when programming. In iron man mode all “unrealistic” ability enhancements by items other than navigational and other tools are meant to be absent. However, the tiger statuette still gives plus 2...

    Confirmed Bug Stuck At Sea When Assaulted During Mooring

    Speaking of Nevis: It never happened to me there. Even though I go to shore there a lot. Often directly after I went to sea, only to have a freaking frigate right in front ofe me, well in firing range. And yet it never ever happened there. The problem seems to be very rare and inconsistent.

    Confirmed Bug Stuck At Sea When Assaulted During Mooring

    That is weird. Because I am quite sure that I was well out of reach, for the enemy ship to inhibit anything about me being able to moor.

    Confirmed Bug Stuck At Sea When Assaulted During Mooring

    Happened again. This time on Hispanola. And yes, I was chased. However, I was well out of shooting range and I am not even sure, if it mattered all that much. However, when I reloaded the game, again I was chased (much more intense due to some miss-navigation on my part). But when I moored, it...

    Tweaking what happens, when the plunder is divided?

    It seems to work just fine. Thanks for that! Really enhances the gameplay as a pirate imo. Because now one has to weigh the options of possible benefit and expected damage to the own vessel. Maintaining a big crew, that is meant to be paid by signed articles, really needs a whole lotta more...

    Tweaking what happens, when the plunder is divided?

    Ah okay, thanks. I will let you know, how it worked out.

    Tweaking what happens, when the plunder is divided?

    Hey guys, is there an option in the internal settings (or anywhere else) to manage what happens, when the plunder is divided? One of the realities of being a pirate was that purchasing a ship or having it completely repaired was probably never all that viable (if at all). It was either “do it...
