Well today I took my fighter up to my other fort that is part of my colony Port Royal, had a
dandy morning walk inspecting the cannons that are part of my defences.I must say the cannons are in perfect working order and are so polished that one could see their own reflection. Nonetheless the same can not be said of one of my soldiers as he shot me on the way back to my ship..

It might be a good idea if,that when I attack a nations ship in the middle of the sea with no witnesses,that the nation it belongs to does not find out straight away..This mechanism could be linked to other factors like player stealth.High stealth =less chance of sunk ships nation finding out..(Suspect) status could be implemented as well as neutral,bounty etc..At the tavern player could pay for rumors in the questions with the barman,thus could be told by the barman that he is a suspect in the sinking of ships of a certain nation,barman could be paid to spread false rumors that player is inocent or it could be done via the same character that player pays to reset their relations.Having not sunk a ship and robbing it for example,then the nation status normal,bounty etc should allow a few days before it takes effect.For immersion this would repesent the ship you attacked taking time to sail back to port..It would be nice when after a few days have passed docking at a nations port that you have suspect status with,the following occurs..A group soldiers gather around the player and you get options like with the bounty hunters but with the following.your wanted for questioning at the residence/court.option .1.go peacefully .2.it was not me i am not a pirate honest.3.take me if you can.4.bribe the soldiers.Maybe fast travel could also be interupted like with the message something has happened along your journey,only to find yourself in front of the governor.with more options to explain yourself,plead for mercy,lie.pay penalty,time in jail,etc.Of course this would have less chance of occuring at night and depending on player stats..luck,stealth etc.New mission types could be made imagine pleading for mercy as an option and finding yourself as a restricted officer/captain/soldier with a rebellious crew all around you,ready to strike you down at the first wrong move you make,while on a penalty mission.Another option is rather strange but here goes.The governor gives player a bottle of pioson to drink and sends player on a mission to be completed in a month,going back to the governor upon completion gives the (governors antidote) as payment.All this could give a governor leverage over the player if player chooses that particular punishment from a list of options.The new type of antidote called the (governors antidote) could be a rare item found at locations in the new world and could be used if mission is failed or if player just chooses not to complete the mission.Going back to that residence after failing a mission or non completion would result in being attacked by the guards.What would really be fun is if the governor just gave pioson to the player and then sets the player free to find his own (governors antidote)within a month.I could imagine this would be quite amusing for a very vain governor from that time period.Governor and the local aristocracy would be having bets on whether or not a person would survive or not.If a vain governor lost a bet he would become incensed.Player could end up becoming the pet project of enraged governors who would of course have different personalities from each other..

Hi all..
My firs report..with the newest version..
When sailing from the french port at martinique under the french flag to the pirate port,on the same island using direct sail.Pirate ships show up as friendly Green..if I go ashore then go to my ship again only one of the ships will turn red enemy..out of a group of say 4-6 pirate ships..distance to said group of ships is not a factor in what single ship in the group turns to enemy,it seems random..sometimes I can even get along side and pirate ship will show up as friendly..I have opened fire on only one of the ships and only one turns to enemy,not the whole group..this can be used over and over until the whole group has been sunk.save below
