Sails on ship not working

Postby tazer » Sun Mar 07, 2010 6:17 am

The sails on the ship "Ocean speeder" Aren't working, I can tell because I'm right next to a raker with no sails and it's going the same speed. I have full sails

Compare the weight on the two ships? You may be carrying a lot more than the other one?

Also the first hour after undocking, the speed will be displayed without sails. You only get to full speed after the first sailing tick.

Yeah, I didn't know it either until I figured it out ingame. The first time one of my characters made sails, I assumed the slowdown caused by overload was enough to counter the bonus gained from the sails, since the ship was loaded to the max. It's not very intuitive.
