This update adds a save game system which will save your location, your current boat and also your money so now you can explore the world without having to constantly restart at the same location each time - it does not currently save the industry states so any deliveries you make will be reset each time you start. I will add this information to the save game as soon as I can.
When starting a new game you will be given 2 choices "Normal" or "Free Play". Both are currently very similar with the main difference being a Free Play game cannot be saved.
"Normal" mode will be where the aim of the game is to run your own shipping company and earn money from delivering cargo & passengers and/or discovering hidden treasure.
"Free Play" mode is designed for those who just want to drive the boats around the map without worrying about money.
I should hopefully have the new boat "garage/dock" menu system working which will allow you to buy boats in a "Normal" game. This will replace the current "Swap Boat" area so that it will be possible to buy more than 1 of a certain boat e.g. you can buy multiple Bluefins. This will be useful as some boats will have configuration & upgrade options.
I will also be adding some other Company Management pages to the menu system such as recently completed orders, bank balance etc as well as the ability to name your company and choose a logo...
