Do you have Test Version 4 from the opening post? I recently changed that text, but it shouldn't say that anymore.it says pirate hunting quest.
If the fort sank the ship instead of you, you should still be able to collect the reward from the governor. Give that a try.i checked the island like 10 times now.. there is no ship.. there were some random natians aroudn there but i sunk them all so yeah where is the target ship? .. what would happen when i ignore the questship and the fort kills it, so that i dont do dmg to him maybe thats the problem? hmm-- Update?
Ohh noo what have i done???^^
Random crashes happen at times. Recommend to save often. If you find out anything consistent about those crashes, be sure to let us know.By the way: i recently sunk and boarded some ships and there was one ship [SURRENDERED] with an captain who dont gave me the only option to kill him. in the dialoge i had the option to make him an officer (cool feature ) so i did that and went back to map. it was the 22.08.1752 as i left sea mode and quicksaved. I cruised around a little bit and the game crashed always when the clock hit 23.08.1752
[...]
my workaround was: load the quicksaved game @ 22.08.1752, quickly go to sea mode - timex 30 and wait for 24.08.1752. sold the ships at the shipyard the new officer is not active and i have no problems anymore. whatever that was.. hm
