Cita: Well people in this thread have hit on the reason that ships move at unrealistic speeds and why there are trails for cannon balls - gameplay. Now we could make ships move at realistic speeds, but who has the time to fight battles that would last several hours long, most of which would be just getting into position. In the most famous naval battle of the time period of the age of sail, Trafalgar, the British fleet spent several hours just sailing into combat with the allied fleet whilst being shot at.
Likewise with cannonball trails, those are there so you can easily see what your ship is firing at.
Bueno, las velocidades serán diseñadas en honor a la jugabilidad, no me quejo.
Sobre lo de los barcos explotando yo desde que lo vi putee al mundo, temo mucho por la frecuencia con que ocurrirá ...
