PATCH 0.8.0.0

New Content

  • 13 new epic melee weapons, defeat boss to get one or find a buried chest.
  • Added Shovel & Treasure Hunt skill, with those you can search for the treasure on any island

New Features

  • New Pirate Grouping mechanism, you can now set pirates to a different group to have better control. (groups are not saved yet, because it would break your saves, we will implement saving of groups for 1.0) QUICK EDIT: To move your crew you should take a look at the groups listed in the upper part of the screen. There you'll have to select them by mouse clicking or also using 1-5 keys. Once you select them you'll be able to give commands to the crew members belonging to that concrete group.
  • Retreat Pirate configuration added, pirate will reatreat to the ship when low on hp now.
  • Enemy pirates will now try to board your ship if they dont have any target on your ship!

Balance

  • XP gain reduced by ton when sailing.
  • Move speed increased a little

Misc

  • BugReport form has been replaced with a REAL Bug Tracker. Click 'report bug' in the main menu.
  • F5 to take ingame screenshot!
  • Users can now bind their own keys when starting the game

  • Can't use the interact command except on treasure chests
  • Sometimes the left side of the ship would move down one block when loading a game
  • Ladder of width 1 would not let pirates up on the deck when fighting a ship
