Anyone know what determins what your companion does with a successfully boarded ship?
Usually I sail around with my little pack of 2 or 3 schooners (still early in the game) looking for some fat merchants to raid. I've been able to get my companions to successfully pull off a boarding, but it doesn't always turn out how I'd like. Sometimes they loot and sink the target (what I want) other times they swap ships and let the schooner I've worked so carefully on building for them sink in favor of some slow piece of crap barque or caravel that I really don't want.
I'm scratching my head trying to figure out if it is truly random, or if there is some rule that determines what they'll do.
Also: Is it possible to transfer cargo / crew between two ships in your fleet with one of them not being my own? Seems a pain to always have to move things to my ship, and then to the other ship I want stuff to go to.
