    The cannons are already done in the pre-Build 13, which is still in Alpha or perhaps early Beta phase, the guns range from 4 to 32 pounds for ships, and up to 42 or 48 (I´m not sure there) for forts, dito is ship surrender and destroyable cannons, among ther things. About the swords, I´m...

    Swords?

    Thank you Pieter, I´ll try that one, even though I inended the skipping to be independent of quality, i.e. the weapon should not be equipped no matter what quality it has. And, as it seems, skiprand means a type of that blade cannot be found as a random item in chests or the like, but skipequip...

    Today, in 1498, Vasco da Gama reaches India. In 1506 Christofer Columbus died. In 1570 the first modern atlas is published by Abraham Ortelius and in 1631 the city of Magdeburg is captured by the Imperial forces commanded by Tilly and Pappenheim, leading to one of the most cruel massacres in the...

    Sharing out the booty?G

    Or you do both and sack a nice, rich and well- defended town. That usually kills a lot of your crew and yields some nice loot to satisfy the survivors.

    Swords?

    But that would only mean a blade of a certain *quality* would not be given to opposites (that much I know that ! is a sign of negation in code), but not the sword at all (like the Bosun´s Choice or Solingen Rapier). So what I´d figure to have to do is adding a new collumn in the blade table (I...

    [Original] Dutch 1st Rate

    It doesn´t look that big, for a 1st rate, and counting the gun ports only gives a nuber of about 40 cannons. I´ve seen pictures of bigger Dutch ships, from the pictures of the Anglo-Dutch wars.

    PA course on C

    Could you kindly explain some syntax I´ve found flipping through the files? What effect does // --> // <-- in a line have. I know double slashes are used to outcomment something, but what do the arrows mean? Maybe I´ll come up with more of this, I´ve been searching our university library...

    Swords?

    Regarding swords, I´ve got a question as well. I´d like to disable some swords for spawned characters while using the weaponsmod. The problem is, by now the enemies get the best swords as well, kiling me despite of blocking, and now that´s merely frustrating, especially if I´ve got to handle...

    Been absent for the weekend, today´s catch-up time, though there is not much to catch up to: May 15th: In 1602 the first European, a Bartholomew Gosnold, sees Cape Cod and in 1701 the War of Spanish Sucession begins. And today, in 1792, the New York Stock Exchange is formed (for another sort of...

    Thanks a lot, and on birthdays, it´s custom that the one who has birthday pays for the drinks, so - drinks all around! Today, in 1607, Jamestown, Virginia was settled as an Englsh colony.

    this game is so terribly, terribly

    I retied in that particular game, with 104 points, an attractive French daughter (as always), all pirates caught, all family rescued and Montalban defeated. That done, I don´t see much sense going on and on and going slower and slower in fights. The only nation to still give me ranks would have...

    Last NKPreBuild13 version

    Your fleet prebuild files contain all the other pre-Build 13 stuff, like destroyable and realistic cannons and all the other stuff, right? Have a good weekend, and see you Tuesday (Monady´s a holiday here in Germany and on weekends university is closed. I sure need i-net at home...)

    Last NKPreBuild13 version

    Great work, once again. It´s just so hard to keep up to date with new output - no critic meant by that, on the opposite. It´s great how productive this community is, and you, NK, especially <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif"...
