Now we have design freeze. Hamburg is ready ,also the rest. I spend some time also trimming the gameplay, though I was sucessful with teh old settings it was rather time consuming, some tips, avoid dangerour places, avoid time critical freight. But I reduced the number of events and this is now spreaded over the difficult level, so a beginner will have less events and so be more safe. Also changed the start money so now three ships can be bought at the beginning and you can combine more at startup.
Nearly all of the user wishes have been implemented now. New route planing makes it possible to select if Suez etc is used or not, new the NOK canal and the norwest and the northeast passage (carefully use this option and look at the time of year).
some impressions:
again new weather options also wind direction etc can be selected, watch the realtime response of the ocean and also wind generators etc.
