Aye matey.

Frigates comes stock with cannons and they pack a powerful punch to thy unsuspecting enemies. One must remember, cannons may only be fired from the broadside of the vessel. B)cool.gif

 You can purchase frigates at one of the local shipwrights.

But yes... there are pirates too. If you beat the pirates in combat, you can commandeer their frigate. :)smile.gif

Yep... Especially considering the world map is about 50% water, it makes getting a frigate a high priority. ;)wink.gif

 It is the entire Britannia map shrunk down to 1/16. Ultima V has 2 world maps and they are both 256x256 tiles each. However, the other world map is 100% underground and so it is pitch black all the time -- you better have lots of torches. ;)wink.gif


256 x 256 = 64Kb
64Kb x 2 maps = 128Kb  o.oblink.gif

But each map compresses nicely to about 12Kb.  O_Oshocked2.gif

 Can you make it so we can light one of the characters on fire? That way, that would make for quite the torch for a while...

 Well... that is already implemented. Just throw some flaming oil or cast a spell to produce some light or a wall of fire. Flaming oil, walls of fire, and lava will all burn the character standing on them. ;)wink.gif

Any tile that is designated as FIRE or LIGHT tile (lava, torch, wall of fire, fireplace, stoves, campfire, lamps, candles, etc.) will emit radiant light as well. ;)wink.gif
