Captain2Strong 290 Posted February 6 (edited) it was probably extremely easy for the privateer fleet not only because of their amount and ability to outmanuever, but also because of the size of hull of a privateer Edited February 6 by Captain2Strong Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But, I do...reenact.. every person plays his game different... you should have known this by now..0.o (i duck away) does this mean we all have to sail oceans ? >> because we are also limited by 20 slots. we have 62 ships in game now and 20 slots...... WE can not play the game as YOU or anybody else want it to play... it's almost impossible . 1- i find it more troubling that i have to sell ships i do not want to sell 2- 62 ships and still no progression on the need for space (actually we are under pressed by it i can not buy 2 DLC because i do not have the space for it ) 3- if you want freedom of choice , not to reenact you must provide room for it. -WE are reenacting because of the limitations....of dock space.....

Probably not on the game engine (practically speaking, for our purposes), but definitely on the backend servers.

GrubbyZebra 340 Posted February 7 4 minutes ago, Thonys said: Why? Because you have to allocate memory in the code, and it can be unwieldy dynamically allocating large amounts of memory, so you generally pre-allocate specific amounts for storing specific information (i.e. allocate 4 bytes to store a 6-digit key that points to 6pdr medium cannons). The pieces of information are not large, in and of themselves, but the allocation of resources to support them can be a significant cause of performance degradation if not handled correctly. Therefore, it is far more efficient to assume every entry in the data table requires a maximum amount of space, and then allocate accordingly. If your maximum is open ended (such as every time they add a DLC ship they add a dock slot), then that can lead to other problems down the line. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Latron 438 Posted February 8 Black River port battle The Brits rigged a Redoutable as a fireship and set it to blow early on in the battle, but it backfired and only did minor damage to a couple Swedish ships while 3 British ships were practically out of the fight. From there the Swedes just had to finish off what was left of the enemy. It was quick and a honestly too easy, but fireships rarely work out the way we hope they do. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Really tough to fight against, requires a lot of communication from your fleet bros. Thanks to everyone who was patient and sailing close.

It's impressive what a few aimed chains can do to a privateers speed/agility = boarding/sunk privateer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
