The light sloop - which can have a maximum valid crew of three people - has four repair spots. It is ludicrous to suggest that one might be closer than the others at one time, but less convenient at another time. Just a couple steps in any direction, and you are on the other side of the boat. So why does a light sloop have four repair spots? Because glitch-repair is considered essential to Disney. That is, cheating, to them, is much more important than playing the game.
*buzz* The reason for the 4 repair spots is to repair the side of the ship with the most damage. Though the Green Circle only shows three sides (annoying) - you can actually repair one of four sides of the ship - so when you are doing it the legit way and the right side has the most damage - repairing that fix spot first actually shows the meter on that side going up first. Once that side is fully repaired then the repair 'spreads' to cover the enrie circle.

It has nothing to do with intentional cheating or glitching.

These things would have been fixed day one, if they were genuine mistakes. Instead, they are profound reflections of Disney's ethos.
Ya know, I can understand ones fustration with having poor connectivity or poor video or game bugs, so much so that I made the offer to sail with you to experience these options myself (though I did not lock up with you at times) - but being this paranoid about the game to this extent really is overboard.

Almost none of us experience these issues to this extreme (glitching aside of course - we all see it and all agree it should be fixed), and some who do have problems even admit to having computer hardward which just isn't up to snuff. Sure we all experience Lag and I know you experience it more than others - but this not make fault the entire system when it is limited to only a small number of players.

Entire computer configurations can cause issues (motherboard a with video card b = diaster). Where you live, the connection you have (is the next door neighbour filesharing the whole world music collection? Killing your connection in the process?), the hardware you use... its computers. All these things can contribute. Have you tried another computer? Another Location? Another connection? These all must be addressed... and many questions which answers are needed for.

I am only concerned because your issues have gone from yourself and SvS to grouping all of us into this potential diaster for all players over the last several threads / posts - when most of us do not experience these issues (or not to the extremes you have) and cannot be called glitches - these are issues which you need to try and eliminate. I don't ACTUALLY believe Big D is trying to place intentional mistakes just to tourture you.

Now as for the REAL glitches of auto-repair and possible sailing forcefield... yes - these should fixed as soon as possible, and maybe even add options to lower graphic settings on ammo.

Your a good man and a great sailor, I'm only worried that your gonna need counciling and meds if you don't ease up a bit
