We are releasing the latest patch with fixes and improvements to enhance your maritime experience. This update includes balanced buoyancy, refined collision, and improved visualizations for longline ropes and the number of fish displayed when hauling a catch. Additionally, the SaveGame now stores game duration (time played) and longlines set in the ocean. We have also improved the behavior of the physical fish during longline hauling to ensure smoother and more enjoyable gameplay.
Roadmap
We've modified our roadmap, replacing the tier 4 Autoline ship with a crab ship due to overwhelming requests from our community. This adjustment aims to enhance your gaming experience based on your valuable feedback. We will of course keep you informed about the specific details of the crab ship. Ships At Sea - Roadmap
Storms
We have received your feedback about the storms and waves and understand that some players struggle to navigate their boats in the big waves. To address this, we are working on adding an option in the settings for players to customize their wave settings and implement a weather forecast. As a work around you can try and skip some hours using the clock in the wheelhouse.
