This is actually unreal. You're a king among men.

Utterly fantastic work

In my case when you press Ctrl+Z or load a save ship cards don't appear. Is there anything I'm missing?

This is great! I'm noticing after firing, there is a dark smoke effect that does not disappear, which is the only slightly annoying thing i can find

@STAR HUNTER Right now thats not automated. You just see the dice roll, and manually (like in the table) see which one impact and just add them up, alonside any critical effect.
Having that automated would mean to program something where shooting also asks the user for target, that way it would calculate the table for to hit, with all the effects, criticals and all... Which may be possible but also a lot of work in TTS, because you also have to account for user scenarios where they want other factor, ship special rules, etc.

AWESOME! Absolutly amazing. Thank you very much and Cheers from Germany

wow really cool game one question when you attack how do you know the amount of damage you inflict?

Hello, for some reason we are losing Gun Ports despite the Hull Points being above half. Where can this me fixed? Also is there a way to disable/enable some of the Advance Rule settings?

@HogSaddle thats because the smoke is a marker that you have fired these guns for the turn. They will remain disabled and marked until a new turn starts, which is done with the wind roll.

I noticed the fire buttons are greyed out after firing, but I'm not sure how to reset the cannon buttons back to their starting colour and clear the fire smoke.

I just released a new version fixing the sea settings issue, which broke with the last version of tts (mod used setMaterialValue which is not available anymore).

Change Sea Settings doesn't work

Fantastic

Great mod!!!

Ah, just seen there is a save issue. Oh well still a great piece of work.

This is really a fantastic version of Black Seas. You have done a great job.
There is one thing that I seem to be having a problem with and I wonder if anyone can help.
If I set up a game, like the starting positions for the scenario Letter of Marque and rename the ships to my liking then save the game as Letter of Marque, it saves. Now if I load the new scenario up and right click on a ship the info panels do not show up. If I add a new ship that one shows the info panels when I right click. The other ship info panels still don't show up when I right click on them.
Any one get this? Any ideas about it?
Again great work.
All the best,
Frank

Having now played some games using the mod I would just like to say how brilliant this is. All of the fiddle has been removed from the game and all of the fun is still there. A shame TTS has let you down regarding the ability to save. Overall FANTASTIC piece of work.

This just looks fantastic, thank you for excellent work!

Update 1.7.0

- Added the Sloop. There are many variants of the sloop, usually it's refered to the corvette-sloop, but the attributes in Black Seas are closer to a brig-sloop, so this is reusing the sloop model.

- Fixed a bug where changing the name a ship didn't update the top-left summary.

Mi enhorabuena. El mod es impresionante.

Thank you for the swift reply.

Ah well, there goes Trafalgar!

@acdewar Sadly there's no current way to save the current game, as many things are created at the moment of ship creation and dont carry over in saves. If Berserk games improve their child object API I would add support for saving.

this mod is ridiculously good.

Can you tell me how to successfully save a game.

I have placed the ships as I wish, made sure I can play the game, and then saved.

When I reload, the ships are there, but no scripting, and it doesn't even save the board size.

What am I doing wrong?

Update 1.6.0

- Added the Schooner, based ona design by Tobias de Maine. I would also like to give thanks to @GMT_Gina, which provided some schooners and sloops for the mod. I didn't end up using them as the one by Tobias is already textured and more appropiate than 3D printing files, but it was still a great gesture

- Large improvements to the sea

- Fixed a bug where starboard weapon ammo didn't show the appropiate range.

- Fixed a bug where cutters had 16 ship points instead of the 12 they should have.

- Significantly increased the ship name list, especially commerce UK, but also greece, sweeden, pirates and the kingdom of france.

@GMT_Gina Sure,that would be fantastic!!

I have a full set of 3D files for all the ship types for the War of 1812 that were on Lake Ontario there in the summer of 1813. I made them myself from the original historical plans (where available) and the set contains corvettes, brigs and topsail schooners. I used to sell them on Shapeways before I discontinued my online store. I'm happy to share them with @Leberecht Rheinhold if you would find a way to get them into TTS and give them the same great special effects that you've got for the existing ships here! Each ship consists of a few parts that must be joined (hull, mast/sails assembly for however many masts there are, jib assembly) Also, since they are plain STL or OBJ files, they would also need to be given colored skins for use in TTS. But I have all rights to these models and I'm willing to donate them if you would give them new life in TTS.

Fascinating. I've built so many mods for this system and still know so little about that side of things. Whatever you can do, I'm certain, will be great and I'll proxy the rest. Thanks again!

@Cyrano Schooners may be a possible, but sloops probably not, for the smae reason as there won't be 4th rates, there are no decent models with a proper licensing that could be used. So unless wants to model them from scratch, they won't be available.

Truly glorious. Thanks very much for this. Any chance for schooners and sloops for War of 1812 business?

Update v1.5.1
- Fixed a bug where the angle of irons/downwind was wrong, it was 45º/30º when it should be 90º/60º, making it way way more permissive than it should be. Thanks to Dread to pointing this out.

- The ship UI now shows the specific wind angle, which can be helpful in some situations to not do trial and error. Furthermore, this message also updates on each turn, so using q/e you can also nail that position "just before irons" and similar.

Update 1..50
- 16 new houses (4 designs on 4 different environments: eastern, mediterranean, western and northern)

- When ships get damaged, sails get visibly torn.

- Wind becalmed/swell now lists effects

- Fixed a bug where ships could still collide a bit with fog despite the terrain being fixed.

- Fortifications are not pickable when the terrain is fixed, instead of being locked.

- If you have use TTS rotation on a ship/fortification without picking them up, they will move in 1º degree angles, allowing you to easily line up that shot.

Update 1.4.0
- Added the 1st rate, HMS Victory, and, without custom models, the L'Orient and Santísima Trinidad.

- Fixed a typo with Sweden, it was called "Sweeden". Sorry! And thanks to Big Floyd for commenting it.

- Both quick reference sheets are now aligned properly when using the Alt-view.

Update 1.3.0 available ;)

- Added squadrons (gunboats, gunbrigs)

- Added floating batteries

- Improved the turniing controls

- Increased the pool of Russian ship names.

- Fixed a bug where sometimes the surrendering flag (or when changing factions) spawned on the wrong side of the ship.

Update 1.2.0 was released yesterday, with the models from the Finnish national museum!

- Small Galley: Using a model representing a royal swedish schooner, now you can use this type of ships, commonly used in the finnish achipielago!

- Cutter: This small and agile ship was used in all navies in the world, plus many contrabandists. The model is based on the Snap Opp, a swedish cutter.

- Masts hit is now improved, and reduces the ship points by a quarter of the maximum.

Thank you, man. You mod is one of the most fantastic things I've ever seen in the TTS.

Very beautiful, practical and funny mod.

Thank you for your work and for share it.

Cya.

Version v1.1.0 in ;)

- Small Merchant: Model based on the HMS Bounty

- Using the frigate model, added the 4th Rate, USS Consitution and HMS Indefatigable.

- Added smoke to represent which positions of a ship have fired. The smoke remains until you press Wind turn roll to begin a new turn.

- You can enable or disable the firing indicator.

- Changed the initial broadside with the change from the FAQ

- The gundeck critical effect now shows visually and effects the firing rolls.

- Added a new reference sheet with a flowchart of a ship's turn.

- Improved the wind turn order, which now ignores fortifications and dead ships, like the summary.

- Added more Ship names.

ah yes, it was my misunderstanding of the rules. Thanks again.

Version v1.0.0 released!

- Added fortifications: Gun Emplacements, Mortar Emplacements and Martello Towers

- Added more ships reusing hulls. This is temporary, but for now, this allows you to use their profile. The ships added are the 6th rate frigate, 64-cannon 3rd rate, Bucentaure, HMS Bellerophon, La Princesa and USS Essex.

- Added a lot of terrain! Walls, towers, breakwaters, new island/hills/cliffs. Also, it doesn't get removed when reloading, instead, its contained in 3 bags in the table.

I also posted a bit of the roadmap on the discord.

BTW Arkein and I will play and livestream a what-if scenario on the siege of Malta tomorrow, which you can watch live (or if reading this later, the link should be valid) here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0QX82ZrE18

@SuperOssido You can use Ctrl+Left click, or you can also make a small box around the ship. I usually use the latter.

I'm not sure about your second question. What do you mean same line of fire? Port and Starboard can only shoot on straight line to the left and right of the ship, respectively. Each gun position shoots independently.

Hey, I was going to say that i find out ahah. By the waay, i wanted to ask you 2 things:
1) how do you make come out the ship statistic and guns panel without right clicking the ship(so i don't have the right click panel looming on my ship).
2) even if a ship doesn't have a stern or bow gun, shouldn't it have the same line of fire of every other ship?so i can understand where the port and starboard can fire

@SuperOssido The random wind is to setup scenarios. There's also Wind turn roll that changes the wind as per the rules.

Ehi,hi. Thanks for the game that you made, I am really enjoying it. I have a question: why does the wind change randomly? shouldn't it follow the wind rules in the rulebook?

Version 0.3.1 updated
- Added more terrain.

- Added a feature to rename ships.

- Fixed a bug where dropping the ship points to half (Damaged) provoked an error on some circunstances.

Version 0.3.0 (actually two days ago, forgot to add the release note)

@Leberecht: A big thanks from my side, too!

@Leberecht Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help you out here. I do have an IT background, so I can do some programming, although I do not have any experience on making TS plugins. Even if a donation would help, I'd be happy to chip in :-) I do have the actual Black Seas game, but having the option of playing remotely during lockdown is SO wonderful!

@Leberecht Well, thanks again for this! I can't wait to have the frigates, 3rd rates, and 1st rates in :-) And more options for upgrades. This is amazing!

Version 0.2.1 Uploaded

- Undo feature: Each ship stores it's position after moving and turning, and with a button next to the Move/Turn you can Undo to move it back.

- Better summary: On the top left all ships are listed. But now if you have a ship below break value, they will be on yellow. And if they surrender or capsize, they will be red.

- Fixed an error where the sails were not visible in certain resolutions.

v0.2.0 Released! See details on patch notes or on the discord.

- New ship added: The Bomb Ketch.
