Boarding

[Sjarko]

Yarr!I'm new and i really like this mod but me have a question.Why is it that the enemy ship first has to surrender their flag or something before ye can board?Cause in RL me dont think that cap'ns would've wait for there enemy to do it.So why is this?

You dont have to wait for them to surrender, just pull along side and board (look for the grapple hook to appear). You may have to fight them though, if they havent surrendered.

 

[Sjarko]

Huh?I have master of boarding but still cant board them if they didint surrender,no hooks or something?

Try to increase your grappling skill. You should be able to board any ships when you're close enough. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />

Yeah,ty,i just found out i can board without them surrendering,if i ram my ship against theirs....

 

[Pieter Boelen]

LOL. It shouldn't be nescessary to exactly RAM into them, but you do need to get close. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />

Can you board a Fort... like the ones on a town cos i hav instant boarding but it wont give me the option

 

[Pieter Boelen]

To "board" a fort, you first need to destroy it's cannons by firing on the fort.

Hi guys...i just had the laugh of my life...

i was sailing around as Jack Sparrow on the Black Pearl, with Pirate colours flying on my masts. i came to a particularly nasty English warship, and boarded it. all it took was the first boarding deck. the second one was where i met the surrender of the captain. the hilarious thing is, that, instead of a British captain, i came across a French Soldier! what's going on?! and when i let the frog go with the remaining crew [which wouldn't be very much after i was done], and went to the boarding interface to move crew around, i found that, instead of the frog as captain, i came across a pic of Barbossa!

please...can someone tell me what that's about? or if i've installed the latest build wrong?
