Notes
- Seats on deck 5 and 6 aren’t sittable due to.. ask Odotusvohveli.
(Hey atleast they look good) – Odotusvohveli - Ship can get laggy – low physics detail is recommended
- Engine sometimes overheats. This couldn’t be fixed and is probably due to the gas update. Turning engine overheating off is heavily recommended.
- Multiplayer use is possible, but not recommended because Stormworks physics just freak out.
- Switches for all lights in public spaces are on the bridge.
Procedures and checklists
Startup
- Go to helm at bridge
- Turn ON all breakers (electricity)
- Turn ON Engines
Docking
- Ferry piers addon heavily recommended
- Decrease throttle when getting close (throttle not very sensitive)
- Use of thrusters heavily recommended
- Go to bow/stern, find dark grey instrument panel, or use the ones on the bridge
- Use ‘Unlock + Door’ to unlock the ramps and open the doors
- Use UP or DOWN to raise or lower the ramp (part A – lower part of ramp, part B – upper part of ramp)
- Use magalls to connect ramp to ground
To use platforms:
- You can use platform controls in the bow and in the stern of the car deck
- You can also use the respective controls to raise/lower the platform ramps
Faults
- Go to helm
- Press key 6
- Go to car deck
- Access door in the fore part of the stairway column
- Select desired fault
OR
- Wait for a failure to happen by itself, should take about 190 minutes (on average) in calm conditions
This is done using DDS (Dynamic Damage System), this system is a timer, that, when it reaches 0, it makes something fail. The timer runs out faster when the ship is in adverse conditions. A fault can be fixed using a fix button near it.
