Ahoy all fishermen,
A new update version: 1.5.765.8713 is now available. Sorry that our previous update messed up the fish habitats, this is working again in this update. Our new improvements for the habitats will come in a later update.
From this update, you will not be able to cheat by moving the crew into your crew house and not paying your crew members, now your crew will always get their share of the catch on those fish trips they have been participating.
We also improved steering on several boats and lightning on the Fishing: Barents Sea boats. Gutting knife quality is also adjusted, now it should be less harsh using the beginner knife to gut fish.
