Patch 14: Part 2 experimental patch increasing realism in ship behavior
Captains
Part 2 of Patch 14 is being deployed today
Ships of the line and frigates sailing performance is finalized based on:
Sail percentages on individual masts
Spankers
Jibs
Staysails
Spirit sails
Displacement to sail power (amount of sails in comparison to weight)
Block coefficient
Waterline length
Width to depth ratios now better affect acceleration and deceleration
Width to Length rat
we will have paints
We will have to wipe ships to add them back (because paints will be added as ship knowledges (that can be used on that ship forever). And this will require ship wipe because it will change structure of the database making all old ships obsolete and unusuable
