At the risk of sounding stupid

My crew are starving! I'm in the shop at Redmond and I can buy rum, but no food. Why? Thanks. (Everything says I have no free space on my ship for it, even though I have nothing)

Wheat is food. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/doff.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="doff.gif" />

It is no stupid question, BTW. You wouldn't really know wheat is food until you read it somewhere. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />

He's right : I had to buy wheat,chocholate and fruits because I didn't knew which kind food
my mates would prefere. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

If possible making the 'info" for wheat something like "...Don't let your crew starve!" should solve this
foreverer ( for 90% of cases I think - those who read the nfo ).

Thanks a lot, it should improve my crew's mortality rates no end!

<!--coloro:#006600--><span style="color:#006600"><!--/coloro-->Yeah...funny how food does that to a person! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="icon_wink.gif" /> It is tough to realize exactly what food your crew needs. I'd be like redCorsair and buy my crew fruits, chocolate etc just to make them happy (or so I<i> thought</i>!) Heck how about ale for those who don't like rum ... err umm... rather have some ale along with their rum! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/buds.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="buds.gif" /> Yeah that's right ale along with the rum <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/jackrum.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":j3" border="0" alt="jackrum.gif" /> <!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc-->

Pity ye can't buy any animals like chickens. The poor jack tar whose job it was to look after the poultry was apparently referred to as the 'Duck F******' in the British Navy.
If I were a virtual sailor I'd be mutineering over the lack of variety in me diet. 'What, bread again? Dam the cook and the purser...'

At the moment only Wheat and Rum are used. A future mod could include more foods being able to be used. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
