Megiddo

In the waiting room (forget what it's called)... sorting by Ship/Player (vs. Player). This would give us a quick way to see what is there.

Great find! However since this is a Alpha game and changes should be forthcoming, I'll wait. In the meantime I'll continue to mistakenly fire my B/S when I mean a ranging shot... dang it!!! But you know, I know where to go find a possible workaround (thanks again).

How do you expect to target those guns if you can't look through the hammock netting??? Really beautiful... BTW.

Beautiful stuff guys. I've wanted to get into this many times but just couldn't dedicate the time. And probably don't have the skills. I did build the large Revell USS Constitution plastic models. http://www.amazon.com/Revell-1-96-USS-Constitution/dp/B0006I8PP8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1421790332&sr=8-1&keywords=revell+uss+constitution Built it twice. First was destroyed in a move (I was about 14-15 when I built it... I'm 52 now, So it's been a while). Watching the Constitution sailing around (albeit sinking me) has be wonderful!!!

Now, how cool is that!!!

Looked like me the other day... (talking about your signature image)

Then after I watched that... this was suggested: A-W-E-S-O-M-E HMS SURPRISE - Tall Ship on the Open Sea! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfqzMgkTJzg Ok, last one, I promise.

Happened on a YouTube video... Lynx - America's Privateer Trailer HD Looks pretty cool! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LNWdRGAAjfM

I do think the SOL's sail way to fast. I'm thinking they should be about 1/3 to 1/2 slower. Right now they are as fast as a frigate. (at least IMO) Most SOL's had so much weed growing they barely moved.

Ships not sinking but surrendered become a sailing obstacle and defense (can't fire until he passes the hulk). Ships burning to the waterline... All good things.

How cool that must have been!!! Sailing on a true square rigged ship.

It's like when you get off a caravel ride (merry-go-round is a good example) and try to walk... you be a little wobbly. But with boats it's more subtle, but lasts much long (in my example, into the night). You can close your eyes and feel like your still on the water.

In my high school and college I did quite a lot of sailing, loved it! But I remember laying down at night going to sleep and feeling the motion of the boat. Well, the other night I'm laying there thinking... what? Sea motion! I had a laugh. Thanks developers for bringing back great memory's. At a fraction of the cost

I noticed when you move the keys from A/D to the arrow keys, double tapping the arrow keys doesn't work. You still do the double tap with the A/D to get he same affect. Not a terrible problem.

Yeah, that's the norm. I'm looking to do ranging shots (single) with the left mouse and broadsides with the spacebar.

Can we get a notification about the "Left mouse / Spacebar" issue fixed? I hate to try it and have to leave a game quickly just because I can't use my ranging shots. Early on I left games thinking I was playing against bots, now I know I was leaving teammates in a jam.

I agree with the idea about shading and not that we don't know it. It's just in a battle a quick glace is all we have time for. Sometimes I get the wind direction all wrong... even backwards. I'm in irons, doh!

I've had the problem twice where floated high over the ship (kinda like hitting the HOME key) unable to shoot or steer... it does give you the affect of being in chat mode. It was going in/out of chat mode a couple of times that fixed it. Pretty helpless feeling. (and the others are thinking you're a dope for sailing right past an obvious shot or colliding)

ESC... I know been there. I hope they make it auto close after hitting enter.

I'm voting for not having to use ESC after typing in chat. I've got stuck there so many times (and I know you all have) Also, is there a way to see chat that has disappeared? Sometimes I'm too busy to read the chat... you know pumping water and all.

Every game I've ever played I remapped the keys to the main arrow keys. I've never understood the A-D-W-S setup, except all keyboards have the letters and maybe not the arrows.

It must be somehow affected (not hardcoded) because you can cause it not to work. I agree... the devs need to weigh in.

Yeah... sure did. No idea why I have it wrong in my head, but I can actually get sea sick because of it. Ironic huh? Out-side pan view doesn't seem to bother me, but aiming... forget it.

Were you ever able to make the switch? I did the very same thing you did and my ranging fire doesn't work any more. So I'll be reading your fix very carefully (I'm not at my game PC). Edit: Got it... went to [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\DefaultCompany\Naval Action] and changed them back. Thanks!!! I should say, back to Broadside =Left Mouse Click, ranging shot=space. But I would like to switch that.

I vote for a way to invert the mouse. For some reason my mind works backwards from normal game input. I struggle to aim the guns constantly raising when I needed to lower.
