I've just started playing POTC for the first time (easy difficulty, realistic sail model). I have installed Build 12 full, pre_B13_base, pre_B13_21_08_06 and the BM13_beta6_update_6_9_2006.
I have a sudden problem with food and rum running out. I've only made three trips in my starting Lugger (crew of 46) so far (Oxbay to Redmond, Redmond to Greenford and Greenford to Falaise de Fleur) and in each case found that 8-10 units of rum and 10-12 units of food was adequate for about 25-29 days of sailing.
I am trying to "escort" the French ammunition ship to Redmond from Falaise de Fleur. Now I barely round the tip of the island to turn north when I get notices that I'm out of rum and several of my crew are dying from lack of food. I reloaded from an earlier save and took on as much rum and food as I had space for, and still cannot make it to Redmond without provisions running out.
Have I mistakenly pressed a key that increased the crew's rations? (I have no idea which that would be). Is the captain of the French ship somehow stealing all of my supplies?
I don't have a quartermaster officer (I haven't enough money to buy any yet). I only have Rhys Bloom as an officer.
Anyone know what might be going on here?
Thanks.
