Since there are no Lefts and Rights in a game using a Compass without a directional point of reference, here's some corrections on a few ships I hope some find a bit more helpful and accurate.
*EITC-Sentinel(Light Galleon): Spawns off the East shore of Outcast, sails North-East between Port Royal(Jamaica ~ incidently the island shape is a pretty accurate for 350'ish years ago) and Padres, continues North-East throught Cutthroat and Kingshead, does a 180 and back to Outcast very near Tormenta then repeats...
*EITC-Corvette(Sloop): Spawns off the North shore of Kingshead, and takes almost the same pathing as the Sentinel flagship to Outcast then eventually returns to the North shore of Kingshead...
*NAVY-Man-o-War(War Frigate): Spawns North of Kingshead a bit off the shore and does a Starboard circular holding pattern off the coast.
*SPANISH-Blood Scourge(War Sloop): Spawns off the South-West shore of Cutthroat heading East, does a Starboard 180 heading back to spawn point and repeats that pattern making an oval...
*EITC Barracuda(Not sure of the vessels class): Spawns off the South shore of Isla Perdida heading South to Cuba, then circles off the North shore of Cuba.
I'll update more as I take notice.
P.S. BTW Steely. Completely recreated = accurately perceived. While I'm sure examples exist, I'm confident it's not common pracite to recreate archeological discoveries. You mention precise 3D locations, but then site equipment that only offers 2 dimentions. Land height is determined by sea level and since 1 is no more constant then the other over time, rarely are they a reliable factor in geographical perception. More often then not in archeology, we know where'ish.. ...and that's frequently all we know geographically speaking. It's very common to be lost on "precise" details like how high, how wide, how big and so on, and that's the mystry of Archeology those of us love isn't it? Also a Virtual world doesn't change over time *tease*
