new question.

is the durability of the ship related to tonage or vice versa?

Or is the tonage a field in the ships's class?

Thanks.

Durability and tonnage can both be specified individually for each class. They are not directly related.

Durability provides all the same functions that it did in WITP except size. We added tonnage primarily as a method of specifying size without durability. That is, a large, low durability ship (like an ocean liner) or vice versa.

so hypothetically, i could make all my capital ships about 10 tons each and make this repair docking more like Witp![:D]

Thanks for the info, that way i can adjust my modding a bit to keep from over loading my ports.

Keep up all of your great work.

I do believe that would fall into realm of cheating.

So if you disband (anchor) in, say, a level-1 port, are you immune from submarine attacks?
