This might sound like I'm technically inept (which I am) but how do I make this game run?  :P

I got and extracted the thing, no idea what to do now.

Well... Not sure if it was the design or stupidity on my end, but...

Two-level ships work, as far as I can tell, but it's hard to get crew to bother with finding food. I put all the food on the lower levels, and had four guys stand around and starve before looking for it. No screenshot, as it somehow took a picture of the forums...

So uh... how does one get your crew on the ship...

Also, only 'complaint' so far is the lack of graphics options :P

After my first five minutes with the designer:

1) For the love of God, send along a Read_Me file with the instructions.
2) Tool tips or at least part names in the near future.
3) How do I make sails?

To the person asking, you board the ship by using the "Grapple" skill after selecting the sailor with right click.
Also i coudnt find how to make sails OR how to feed the crew even tough i did get a chef and a table with food on top.

Make a mast, then put a crow's nest on top. Then put the sail part on the crows nest.

Ok, i just puted sails, 1 on a small mast and 2 on a large one, the game automatically closed without any warning or error message.
After quick testing it can be reproduced. Maybe not? I could once.

There's a slight bit of funkiness if you build a ship with it's base on the starting-point level involving grappling. I had someone phase through the ship, but that was during a pause "slow down"...

Basically, make larger ships. The design was one with a "cannon bay", and was almost completely flat. aside from a 2nd floor that no one ever went to ever.

Pretty fun, but I still have no idea how to get my crew to actual take the damn food my cook is making. Friendly fire is hilarious. My suggestion would be to be able to copy your ship design for another world. Also, large ships indeed make the crew grapple skill to drown them. It would be nice to have a sort of "red area" where you can't build, or a notification that says it is too big. Otherwise you'll have people losing their captain easily to pointless drowning.

At the risk of sounding stupid, who is the "me" I'm supposed to PM?
