PotCO in-game tips list

I thoughted I make a list of most/all the in-game tips/hints you get from the game when switching from area's or go to your ship/anchor.

This is what I got so far. Just started an hour ago while playing.
  • Flagships give more cargo then regular ones.
  • Flagship boarding rights are given to the crew that dealt the most damage
  • Click on other players to crew with them. But remember to put your weapons away first
  • Ships with a flag icon above them are flagships. They need to be crippled and boarded
  • Switch weapons using the F1 to F6 keys
  • Different cannonballs are effective against different parts of a ship
  • The voodoo doll will lose attunement if you are too far away from the target
  • Don't use teleport if you have cargo. You will lose it. (Personal)



Just drop some posts and I'll update the list

There are two hints that always give me a laugh when I see them - I may not have the wording exact, but it's close...

Do not play this game wearing more than one eye patch

If you've been playing for more than 2 hours, take a break

LOL, I like those 2 hints, too.

Another cute one is "Don't feed the alligators!"

I also like the in-game hint -

Don't pet the scorpions.

Don't throw grenades at your feet.

That is a good one, because it actually does cause damage to you.

When choosing a skill with a skill point, choose carefully which one will be of great use in the future.
