I would like to see increased durability returned. A single durability is too fragile to risk PvP and sometimes also in PvE combat. It's just too costly in time and resources. The old system wasn't perfect. It made the costliest ships, the 1st rates too risky to play. A more balanced and simple system would be to allow 3-5 durabilities to all ships.

Putting aide all technical choices, either by design or by limitations... To simulate the natural decay of a wooden ship I suggest the following. - Maximum HP of the ship to lower for % value for a given amount of repairs done. Example: Ship will decay 1% of the maximum HP for each 25% HP recovered ( combined masts and hull ). So a 1000 HP ship, would become a 990HP ship after spending enough repairs to recover 250HP combined. Only takes effect after return to port. There's no pros nor cons other than simulating lifetime of woods in a

Small suggestion for ship durability. Instead of ships being completely destroyed after durability is brought to zero, penalize the player by giving negative stats to his "sunk" ship until durability is refilled.

Negative consequences can be things like: slower speed, ship starts battle with less structure / armor, longer reload speed, etc. Or maybe even set it as a "basic" ship with no advantages until durability is refilled.

Here are some suggestions that in my opinion could improve game play in some areas. At least, if technically possible some of these should be tested/assessed. SHIP NON-PERMANENT UPGRADES _______________________________ The easy way to address the non permanent upgrades would be to look at reality. If I have 2 ships, I most likely will have a set a amenities in each and they will not appear at the docks magically for availability in an upgrade window before I set sail. It's a convenience that is not possible in the real world unless the ships are moored next to each other. You can't j-

Just an Idea but what if you edited the durability system in this way: Basic: 1 durability Common: 2 durability Fine: 3 durability Mastercraft: 4 durability Exceptional: 5 durability Makes exceptional ships sell for more money thus making them rare.
