Explanation

• Craft a Dockyard and place it next to water.
• Right-click the Dockyard, choose a ship and a wood type and press "Build ship". The materials are taken from your inventory.
• The finished ship is placed in the water near the Dockyard. The water has to be wide and deep enough.
• Right-click the ship to board. The first player gets the helm. Other players get the free seat closest to where they clicked.
• Press R to open/close the sail.
• W / S to increase or decrease the sail.
• A / D to steer.
• The keys for your seat are shown on screen when you board.
• Ships can only be built at the Dockyard. There are no crafting recipes for ships.
• Ships can be lost. A sunken ship can not be recovered.

Dockyard

• Materials are taken from your inventory.
• Every job takes time. In creative mode it is free and instant.
• Nobody can board a ship while the Dockyard works on it.

Build

• Choose the ship and one of the 9 wood types.
• Any planks can be used. The wood type only changes the look of the ship.
• The Dockyard shows the attributes and the wind profile of the ship before you build it.
• Bigger ships need deeper water. The Dockyard tells you if the water is too shallow or if there is not enough room.
