The Marinadtor Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 From my understanding the idea is that ships recipes will change to only require resources and not materials. How it currently work is that the making of the materials for the ship take a certain amount of labour hours and same for the ship. An example is that the L'Ocean needs 1957 labour hours currently to be able to press the craft button and the materials for it being made out of white oak/white oak(excluding the labour hours for the resources) takes a total 3782 labour hours to make(with material inefficiency due to not being able to make exact amounts of materials) bringing the total amount of labour hours to construct a L'Ocean to 5739 labour hours. Currently the max amount of labour hours you can store(with perks) is 2500. My question then becomes how will we be able to construct a L'Ocean? Will the labour hour cost change, will the wallet size change or maybe will the labour hour cost of materials be moved to the collection of resources?

Preechur Blackheart Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 Just wondering about the pieces of eight and Reals...the two currencies after the update. Will their values be fixed against the other? Or will they change, allowing money manipulation? I wonder, as well, if we will ever see 'the Funds' as in the bank where British seamen would invest their prize money? Changing exchange rates, and a stock market, would add interesting wrinkles to NA.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shrez Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 (edited) So we need then less labor hours to craft a ship? coz no materials needed to be crafted right? Edited May 11, 2018 by Shrez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raw materials will be converted as is with no loss or gain (for example Oak logs). If you have 1000 oak logs in the warehouse and the conversion rate is 100 to 1 - you will get 1 oak log (load) (number used is for information purposes only) Money will be converted as is with no loss or gain. For example 1,000,000 gold will convert to 1000 Pieces of Eight (number is for illustration purposes only). Building productions and costs will also reduce according to conversion rates. Repairs, upgrades, ships are not going to be affected. Action recommended but not really required (the effects of loss or gain will be minor) Intermediate materials will be converted into raw materials. For example frame parts will convert into logs. Barrels might convert to logs or logs and ore. Carriages will convert to logs or logs and hemp. Et cetera. As a result Crafting BPs will be cleaner and more easy to understand. There will be less unnecessary clicks there will be less unnecessary materials to craft and hold There will be less zeroes. Like admin declared: "Intermediate materials will be converted into raw materials", "the effects of loss or gain will be minor". If you will be totaly shure use all intermediate materials (in your list the "compenants") Forum could be so much slimmer if everybody reads the announcements carefully. The "wipe" isn't a wipe where you loose things. You have to expect a slimmer list of materials that are needed to craft a ship.

I can see why people still want exact clarification of what will change, because when they merged the servers they said most stuff should transfer across and although they mentioned somethings that could not transfer they never mentioned that sealed bottles would not transfer and then acted as if we should have known that these items were not transferable. If they had been clear as people were requesting people would have had time to use the items in advance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Devs force Modules to be stored in warehouses and transported by ship rather than via the common chest, then we may use up all the extra space quickly. Currently I maintain one outpost with 40+ different modules in it - but in the future we could easily have 30-40 modules in our main crafting warehouses.

It's better to craft finish products, but in any case the intermediate materials will be converted into their most expensive components (raw materials), thus the gains or losses should be minimal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neuville Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Thanks for the precision. Indeed, refind the raw material is good. We will just lost the labor hours used for craft, but it's the reason we should craft ships quikly ^^ Well, any idéa about the day of this update ?

Aster Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 (edited) I would rather the patch come out working then come out early and screw up everything and have to have a server roll back like last crafting changes.

woodenfish Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 It should cost the same before and after, only the amount of 'Gold' you have and the amount of 'Gold' it costs to build a building might have changed. The ratio of your riches to building cost will be the same if I understood the dev's OP correctly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edmund Blackadder Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Well, for me it’s not the uncertainty about any patch but simply that I don’t like the recent changes concerning the missions and other stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
