In SvS, if you park inside Port Royal, you can still be seen on compass. You can still be hit. Other ships can also "glitch" into the same island and grape you. If you are AFK eating lunch, you invariably will be sunk when you return. Ships can fit inside Port Royal, Kingshead, Padres del Fuego, Isla Tormenta, Isla Perdida and Tortuga. But hiding in any of those spots, ensures only that you will be found in short order. (Personally, every time I've hidden a ship inside an island, I was found - under 5 minutes, each time. Not exactly long enough to eat lunch. I'm sure the ones that found me would have laughed long and hard, if they could have seen the look on my face as I sprayed coffee on my keyboard.)

In regular sailing, the "sail inside an island" is one of the most entertaining, enjoyable glitches in the entire game. I would hope that the Disney programmers would devote their efforts to serious glitches that actually affect the game, instead.
i have to disagree with you. if you are in SvS and you use this glitch to go "powder your nose" or "eat lunch" and no other SvS ship sees you take off (especially if the ship just sunk you and you are trying to catch up to get your bounty back) then how will you know where they are?

I would much rather see a ship sail to the end of the world to hide out then to hide out in a island just so they dont have to sail to far away from the SvS playing field.

Scores and bounties are temporary.. you cant take them with you when you go to bed at night. If you don't plan on playing through lunch, port! Saves time for others who are trying to look for you.

Of course, my opinion and $1.25 will get you a cappucino.
