alright have a good one man thank you! i credited you in the comments cause i finally found your account

@IED at this point, with it being out of date, I don't really care so long as you're not trying to take ownership of it so to speak.

I'll leave this and my others up for posterity I guess. I didn't really think anyone would miss it to be honest...I guess a few people did so that's kinda nice to know.

Cheers guys.

Months ago he answered me he hid his creations because he left SW and the continued comments asking to update/fix appeared annoying (or something). Now he's back to SW (for now). I suggest adding '(NOT SUPPORTED, DO NOT DISTURB)' in the beginning of a title instead of hiding a creation and unsub from comments.

i found this thing, i reuploaded a version, why did you make it private? ill credit you untill you make it public or if you want to ill remove it

Do you know what the max weight is that the helipad can handle without tipping?

Thanks.

You might need a bigger boat as I don't think there's much to be done with this one. It handled the small chopper I used for testing, but emphasis small. I've gotten away from Stormworks so any updates are unlikely. Sorry it gave you trouble.

And they properly landed the helicopter square on the landing pad, before it tipped.

Me and two of my friends were playing with each other in a multiplayer server and they were both using a helicopter (One was Co-Pilot, the other pilot) and they were landing on this boat to head to a Search and Rescue mission. I was on board the boat, everything was working fine. But when they landed, the boat started tipping to the side, which resulted in their helicopter falling in the sea. I was surprised to see a huge boat not able to handle a normal sized S&R helicopter. Is there a way to prevent this from happening in the future?

Okay.

I don't have a particular one to recommend, just something small.

I like the helipad and was wondering what helicopter would be best with this boat for SAR in-land?

Got it thanks. Great boat

Normally, there'd be a section in the description above on... 'Start Up and Getting Underway'

how do i make it drive?

Thanks for the reply Mega, I'll give it a try.. Appreciate.

Thanks Buzz. Stripping it/them down will surely help performance...how much is hard to say. I'd try removing some sub-grids (those extra harness/stretchers come to mind...there's some gates/doors you might be able to live without...maybe even the RHIBs). Radar/lidar is kind of pointless in the game so that could get ripped out (logic and the spinners on the roof). Maybe some lights but you can always leave them off too. Anyway, stuff like that would probably help the most.

Great Boats both the Rivage and Vale, although they are a bit too heavy for my computer.. I notice there is a lot of eye candy and detail. Do you think that if a user removed a lot of that, that the creations would be a bit less heavy?

Yep, I figured it out now. Hold E or Q in the middle, then hold the other key either above or below (zoom in or out). But the creator of the map also added a way to import waypoint coordinates into the nav computer. Would maybe be worthy to check out some time!

Aye, you can zoom in and out, but it requires some technique. You'd be best to review and/or inquire on the WS page for the 'Touchscreen Nav' as I can't quite remember the procedure now...something like hold Q while moving mouse up or down. It is quirky I admit.

Managed to zoom out, but not sure how. However I can't zoom back in, nor add waypoints from the map..

Is there any way to zoom out the navigation map or add waypoints from the ingame map? Kinda hard to navigate with so little room on the nav screen, but really like the customizability of the waypoints!

Sorry, no spoilers. It, or they, aren't anything very special (well one kinda is but only to certain people)...so you're not missing anything. Actually, I guess I could tell that one...ok...

So, Gord Downie was the lead singer of a band called The Tragically Hip. He/they wrote a song called Nautical Disaster, in which there is a line that goes...
'I was in a lifeboat, designed for ten, and ten only...'.
Now go investigate the RHIB :)

Also, to Captain Rampage...
...I tried again to work in a HUD...really the only reasonable place is outside the front window. That doesn't really work for me though so I don't think the IR cams and HUD are going to happen. Maybe down the road, if I was drastically update the bridge or something, but I have no desire to really do that so probably won't unless I have to by an update. Anyway, IF that happens, I'll keep you're request in mind :)

What is the easter egg?

It's tough to work in a display for a camera at this point...not a lot of real estate left. I'll continue to try and add it, but it may take longer than previously expected. Just an fyi.

Thanks Captain :)
You mean some IR cameras? I normally have those on my ships but they got left off this one...I guess in my haste to call it done. Anyway, ya I could probably do that this weekend.

Insanely cool build, really great and versatile. Though would you consider adding an IR hud for night sailing?

one thing that i must add is that it looks a lot smaller in pics when its a lot bigger

Updated with a couple new features. See above. Hope that helps with the helos.

i guss i did use a sunami

I used MrNJersey's rescue huey and it works fine with ripe tied into it.

Only tested with a friends helo and the small one I made and neither had a huge effect, so all I can say is the smaller and lighter the better.

It's not really intended as a carrier, just a place to land and drop survivors for some medical treatment and refuel if you need to. Maybe I should take the helipad off completely if this is happening though :/

oh ya, it is sorta prone to capsize

the heli was the R-303 Goshawk

hey do you have a heli that can land on it because i landed one of your SAR vehicles on it and it tipped over

To those who ask, why so slow?...turn on Infinite Fuel lol.

I Just discovered, she'll do 55 knots with infinite fuel on. Not very graceful getting there though, so only turn Pursuit' mode on from less than 80% throttle, then go up gradually to 100%.

Tested a bit this morning and everything was working fine for us. I expect it's something related to the netcode as I have seen some strange things in MP like invisible ropes and cable for the client. Could also be a bug, but it's hard to know without be able to reproduce.
Thanks for reporting it though. Sorry I can't help at the moment. I'll keep my ears open on Discord for anyone having similar issues and maybe the problem can be nailed down eventually.

TY. I checked and have the same issue with the Deck Gun (Monitor) on the bow. I can turn the water on, but not direct the nozzle. However it is only on my side, not the server side.

Not sure Thomas. I don't get a chance to MP very often, but I'll see if I can get a friend to join me for a test session.

I have an issue with the remote. On MP my Numbers work fine, but the items don't respond. WASD also do nothing. Channel 6, remote is on. I can turn on the magnet, lights and make the cable move on my side, but on the server side, nothing happens, and the other player has no issues at all. Any thoughts?

oh heh, didnt notice tnks

Thanks bedwards, fixed the RHIB winch. BTW...I answered your question on that screenshot the first time you asked.

Sorry Engle...I don't have one too recommend. Smaller and lighter the better though...it's not a big ship really.

Oh, is there a specific helicopter you would recommend? I tried a couple of others but it caused a nasty list on the stern.

also the winch on the crane is a little broken for me. Also how do you split the ship up like in the screenshots. other than that amazing ship (:

where are the easter eggs in the ship? (i found out what they are)

None specifically. I was working on one, but I'm not much of a helo guy and since they can't spawn together anyway, I stopped. It flies but that's about it. I'm sure there's many, much more capable helo's on the WS than anything I could do. Maybe there should be winches and cables for strapping down random helos? I'm not sure on the best approach but am open to suggestions.

I must ask what helicopter is meant to go on that landing pad. Or if there are plans for a specific helicopter for the landing pad.

ah ok, yea thats probably it then, i pressed all the buttons so i probably pressed that one too. Thanks!

Steering is pretty straightforward. A/D from the helm. There is the R/C option but if the helm doesn't work, neither will the remote.

Is Windchaser or the Nav system engaged? Either will take over control of the rudders...
