To add, one of the reasons the ships often turn into enemy trouble is that the ai always seems to favor an upwind path, which can be great for triangle sail ships to get away, against square sails, but it never takes into account the ‘point of sail’ number for the actual ship (it may be a square sail itself, that sails horribly into the wind) and…[Read more]

I think I have read similar for GOF, but I have not seen this. Do you have the boarding save for that I could look at?

LOL, yes this has been a frequent discussion. The ‘sail away’ logic can be very poor at times.

I have researched several ‘pathfinding’ and flee/evasive ai techniques and there are some common suggestions: A* (A star) and Recast, ‘policy based’, creating an influence map, etc. The task to rewrite the AI code, using the existing input data is…[Read more]

I have met a bug:

When I board an already surrendered ship I lose plenty of crew lets say a ketch with 20 crewmembers kills 300 of my men

So I have a suggestion dunno if its possible to mod it in
Now we all know how big of an Einstein is the ai in this game like for exapmle i would like to save one of my heavily damaged ships she is already in wind direction telling her to sail away and she turns right in to the enemy fleet against the wind (just for maximum effectiveness)

what if…[Read more]

Yep dunno why the drama whey the PA community have to treat you like this but your are truly awesome very helpful and you made wonders with this game (also will I hope)

To clarify, this download is complete and requires nothing other than to put everything into a folder for New Horizons, and play from there. You do not need to copy .exe/.dll, or add mod files…the download is a stand-alone, complete set.

I don’t understand how people can be mad/hostile at you guys, well, anyone using his brain…
Keep the good job and don’t pay attention on trolls

A new update is available. One new ship and over 40 new ship textures changed/added.

This is a functional proof of concept, provided for New Horizons modders to finish; most everything I’ve checked looks like it works to me, but then again, I’ve never actually played this game. I can sail, fight, visit tavern, shop,…[Read more]

yep this time it worked fine 🙂

Whoops. Got your save and found it’s because I had you change Jessika by mistake. Since you might have saved, this will correct both:

void ExecuteConsole()
{
ref ch = characterfromid("PsHero_35"); //Beatrice
ch.FaceId = 0;
ch = characterfromid("PsHero_36"); //Jessika
ch.FaceId = 330;
Log_SetStringToLog("Operation…[Read more]

Hmmm, I tested that with one of my fighters, and it worked instantly. Send me a save and I’ll check it out.

I did it as you say, in game i have a message “operation successful” when i press F4 , but portrait stay as the Blaze one .. i saved, reload, quit game or relaunch but still the same …

Yes, those portraits get set at the beginning of a new game, so an existing game will still be wrong. You have to run console code to correct an existing game. Replace your console.c code and hit F4:

void ExecuteConsole()
{
ref ch = characterfromid("PsHero_36");
ch.FaceId = 0;
Log_SetStringToLog("Operation successful! "…[Read more]
