Last reviewedBrief the fleet before sailing
- Choose one objective: exploration, trade, transport, or another task shown by the current game.
- Inspect the current ship and fleet requirements.
- Confirm the departure harbor can supply the planned route.
- Set the destination and check the return or follow-up path.
- Observe the result before changing composition or assigning another job.
Investigate a failed route
- Cannot depart: check ship state, assignment, and current route rules.
- Cargo does not move: verify both endpoints and storage capacity.
- Settlement starves after departure: restore local logistics before adding fleet work.
- Old advice differs: compare its patch date with the current client.
Keep fleet claims bounded
The reviewed sources establish ships and fleets as core systems but do not support one permanent best composition for every job. Use current ship panels and versioned tests.
Verification boundary
What still needs live verification
This is a dated independent guide answer. Update-sensitive mechanics, values, availability, and interface paths can change; the current live game and official announcements remain final.
Official descriptions establish stable scope. Interface paths, balance, values, rewards, schedules, and version-specific behavior must still be checked in the current game build.
