I had that problem once, not sure if this happens again, since I never leave the game in pause mode for that long time...

Though I once had a much worse technical issue with the game: When I saved the game, it spent 15 minutes doing that before I could get back to playing the game

This was a very long time ago, back when I almost didn't know how a computer works, so I never found the problem

Glad to be of service. If you want any more advice just ask.

Why didnt they make clear what a ship does before I build BOTH a harbor AND a shipyard? I could have sited things a bit better, sent the first expedition to a more useful place, etc.

The manual doesn't help in this regard either.

There is quite a lot you have to learn yourself.

Know we know the real difference between "hardcore" and "casual" gamers

well i must see the game handles the ships quite well. Micromanaging ships was one of the most frustrating aspects of 1602.

[DrSpike]

I knew you would come around.

[Adagio]

Yep, I do hate micromanaging ships, though the ships are very stupid in S2

[Adagio]

Too bad it's not possible to make maps where ships can be used with the editor

[Skanky Burns]

Actually, ships drive me crazy in S2. An unoccupied island in the middle of nowhere that is completely safe? Better take our only general to fill the barracks there. Oh, and 40 gold coins. So what if the main island only has that many coins and are actually using them to train people?

That and they sometimes tend to crash / get stuck on a particular point of land and never move again. Thats why I build multiple ships.

[Adagio]

As I said... ships are stupid

Though I've never seen any ships get stuck?

[Skanky Burns]

Its happened to me multiple times. :shrug:
