Siegfried 957 Report post Posted September 9, 2017 Good!! I need an additional aclaration because an possible barrier language. When you say ship building goods you mean only to for example oak planks, iron fittings, etc... or Oak log, iron ore, lignum vitae log, etc too? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Raw resources weight is lowered, thus materials weight is changed accordingly 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Texas Sir 5,913 Report post Posted September 9, 2017 Oh I see now you do this after I moved a whole bunch of stuff last night. Well good thing is I still got another load of stuff to prob move tomorrow night to be ready for the patch. What we need to know is buildings going to be refunded? I want to drop some ports, but if they are I'll wait until after patch is dropped to do so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lets blame it on Harvey, I'm still dealing with that mess. Well not me personally luckily myself and family didn't get effective but I got tons of friends in Houston right now that are homeless or still flooded out. Either way would be nice to get them refunded so folks can pick new resources according to new map. Cause by what I understand resources are going to be moved around too in this patch. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Some Voodoo priests?Just by changing the weighing system you won't change the masses of the goods transported, normally. No wonder there is a great upheaval in Europe going on.

Some players were worried it would be difficult to move so much, and in some cases this is probably true, or at least a burden. Thanks for that Admin. Still, good loot potential for privateers hunting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
