We are excited to unveil a significant new feature coming to Ships At Sea with Tier 3 fishing ship: the Fish Production Line! This system adds an authentic and immersive approach to processing fish, giving players a deeper connection to the operational aspects of commercial fishing.
How It Works
Fresh caught and ungutted fish will be transported from the bleeding box on the work deck to the production line. Using a conveyor system, as you can see above, the fish will move through the processing area, where players can interact with the gutting stations.

Bleeding Box
At the gutting station, players can:
- Pick up fish from the conveyor belt: Position yourself at the gutting table to retrieve fish for processing.
- Gutting Station: Use a knife to gut the fish.
- Return to the Conveyor Belt: Once gutted, the fish is placed back on the top conveyor belt, where it is transported to the storage room. The storage room allows players to organize and store gutted fish in boxes, ensuring a streamlined and organized workflow.
Interactive Controls:
You, as a player, will have control over the flow of the production line.
- A start/stop button will allow you to open or close a hatch, controlling how much fresh fish spawns on the conveyor belt. When the bleeding box is empty, the gutting process will be complete.
Future Plans
We plan to expand, such as introducing upgrades for the gutting stations and allowing players to install automated gutting machines. These machines will streamline the process further—players will feed in fresh fish, and gutted fish will emerge on the other end, ready for storage.
A Step Toward Excellence
This is just the beginning of the production line system in Ships At Sea. Our goal is to create the most immersive maritime experience, and this feature is a step toward making Ships At Sea the best of its kind.
We understand that many of you are eagerly awaiting the next update, version 0.8. We want to assure you that we are diligently working to address the issues you’ve reported while also developing exciting new features. We appreciate your feedback on this development news and look forward to sharing more updates as we continue to enhance the gameplay experience.
Stay the course!
