Row row row your boat.....Ship

[Merciless Mark]

Well i had an slight idea, with realistic sailing an all it is a bit frusturating when you turn into wind in combat i had an idea for a small mod addition, what if one could have an ability to deploy a longboat when going against the wind? it was quite common in times past for large warships to put out boat or boats to tow the mighty warship into the wind. i think it would be rather neat and nice touch, and of course even better if one could have destroyable boats that could be sunk and thus loose the towing effect?

That would be ruddy difficult to code, I'm afraid. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />

I like the idea there, matey, however, I think it would indeed be a ton of work to implement. Keep brainstorming though, mate. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="me.gif" />

Probally impossible with the current platform

it's a pity we just travel at a constant speed on the world map instead of having more variable weather.that way we might get stuck in dead calms now and again.then row boats and boats with sweeps would come in handy
