grappling hooks... I can not for the life of me figure out how to board a navy or EITC ship! Do I need more than just myself onboard my vessel...
I line up right beside the darn thing and all I can do it blow it to bits I want to get on one of those suckers!!!! I NEED TO PLUNDER!!!!
Also a couple of questions on a few more things Next to the Moonraker Navigator bars where my health is, there is a ship, I can move that ship, but for the life of me I can't figure out why I would want to move that ship icon... There are also 3 circles, one for cargo, one for shipmates and a third which seems like some sort of clock... or timer.. it's counting down from 47 minutes if that means anything.
Also once I have a Navy ship engaged there seems to be a timer associcated with that... What are the Timer's purpose...
Thanks (can you tell I am taking a break from packing and dealing with sick kids??)
Oh and is there a proper way to log out?
You can grapple over to a ship by yourself, but it would be really hard. I'd recommend having a crew with you of at least 1. To grapple, you have to shoot your grappling hooks to the ship first. When you're manning your cannon, at the bottom of your screen, you'll see a grapple button. Push that to enable the grappling hook, then shoot it at the green circles that are on the enemy ship. To get plunder though, you don't always have to grapple. You only have to grapple to ships with a flag over them. If you just sink the ships without the flag, you get cargo and when you dock your ship, you get the gold.
The timer is how long you can be at sea before you need to dock. A timer on an enemy ship would be how long you have to grapple and defeat the enemy soldiers on board.
As for moving that ship icon, I've never noticed that you could! I'll have to check that out!
There is a proper way to log out, but it still does the error report thing even if you use it. I forget the button, but it's on the far right where you see your J, I, U, etc. It's the top one. Push that, then you'll get a screen where you can make audio changes and other things like that, and there is a logout button.
I'll be on tonight if you'd like to meet up and get on each other's friend list. I'd be glad to help in anyway! This game definitely relies on teamwork. PM me if you want to meet!
