steps and stuff.

I deleted old posts that didn't fit here any more, and I'll edit this one latter. The quote just made me luugh 'cause with this last patch up-date, I can jump all the way accross my ship...

If you feel like glitching, try jumping off the back end of a frigate... If it works you should end up swimming. But go under a ship and you'll be swimming just above deck... Sails up/down might effect how you get your ship back. I have poped right back on deck, and I've had to get on my own cannon to return.

While you are on your endless voyages, right click/hold and work that camera over to the side of your ship so you can see where your broad side shots go. This will be REALLY difficult 'caues of LAGGG.
Nothing will move if there is a lag spike- then you'll jump 3/4 the way around your ship... Once you get this down, fighting on auto pilot (shift+R)should be a little easier, and unless they change things, you can make some gold/finish quests without sinking a ship all the way.
