Polish flag looks exactly like an Austrian one

Design choices made:

  1. Ensign used by the navy at around 1800
  2. Availability as a vector icon
  3. Visually simple to be identified zoomed out, no complex graphics such as the Polish arm or Prussian eagle

My proposal for polish flag: 2 stripes of white and red.

My proposal for prussian flag: 3 stripes of black, white, black.

For GB, there should be easy to get a flag like the one ingame.

PL: it must be a Polish-Lithuanian flag (red-white-red), the proper ensign conflits with design rule 3

PR: conflicts with design rule 3

GB: conflicts with design rule 1

Felix, ich love this tool. I'm dreaming of another feature on this great tool. 

Background is that every Admirality in the world is recording ship losses in a list and marking them with needles/dots in the maps. 

My suggestion is to mark the x/z positions of every sunk ship,  of the last 24 h since server restart, with a colored dot according to a trader or warship. By going mouse over u will see little more information. Type and nation of sunk ship as well as nation, type of the winning ship and it's players name. It will give nearly the same information as existing combat news give but visually on one sight. Additionaly there should be a summary of all times,  ship losses list,  for the history books. 

This will provide facts for the endless discussions about ganking newbies and slaughtering helpless traders. It will give an overview of combat activities in the careebean as a commanding officer picks up from every harbour pubs gossip, traders reports up to the war room briefings of the admiralty.

Further more it will open a competition between players in ruthlessness or honourible knighthood on the seas. 

Where do u want to find yourself on the list .... ?

We don't have access to that information.

What happened to the coordinates? It wants a 3 digit number now but the coordinates are far larger. I tried just entering the first 3 but they are very far off from where I am. Is my browser messed up?

Take the thousands of the coordinates, 34 instead of 34,573, for example.

@Felix Victor In Wood Comparison tool You have small error:

Side Armour and Structure Health is the other way around. 

Also, I wouldn't call it "Side" Armour cause it also boosts both stern and bow HP :)

 

Still - amazing job, any my fav tool to use!

Can someone please confirm what is what?

ARMOR_ALL_SIDES    MODULE_BASE_HP --> Structure or armour health?
INTERNAL_STRUCTURE MODULE_BASE_HP --> Armour or structure health?

Hello Felix!

Your tool is getting better and better - thank you Felix Victor!

But i found a little mistake. In the data-field the sign "-" (minus) is shown on the wrong coordinate. In this case it has to be  -359k / 436k

Freundliche Grüße

Armor All Sides is the HP of the port and starboard - so the top and middle bar in the ship UI
Internal Structure is the HP of just the middle bar.

I've double checked with the ships in the game, and the values are ok, just the naming is swapped.

Live/White ships have exactly 10,5% more HP on the sides, but it's called "Structure health" in Your tool. However, structure, is just the middle bar. So this one should be called actually "Side Armour HP".

In ship description in the game:

ARMOR_ALL_SIDES is called "Sides Armor" when You hover mouse over Your ship
INTERNAL_STRUCTURE is called "Hull" when You hover.

Omg this Map is turning into something HUGE. Now we can plot course, with estimated time, compare ships, compare woods.

On google chrome when I plot a course, I could not use the CLEAR button, when I try to select it, button left of it is activated "select consumed good"

Edit: Screenshot attached, my mouse clicks just on the CLEAR button, but tab on left side (select consumed good) activates instead. I will try reseting chrome browser.
