I was wondering if the ships sink with severe damage?
-
Welcome to the forum...
If you tipe 'ship sink' into the search bar at the top you will find your answer (as best as we all know).
If the moderators catch you asking duplicate questions, THEY will sink your boat ;)
It has been discussed quite a bit and I don't think there has ever been an answer from the developers, and from us lot, opinion is divided.
Have a look round the forum there are loads of topics to read (and if you suffer insomnia, read my posts)

i talked to wout on another topic, and the boats will sink. According to him wout. KM
-
Later I will post a pic of a sailboat sinking in SS2006. ;)
-
well the boats in SS06 are not supposed to sink though, lol KM
-
It is a AI boat. ;)
-
And here it is. The sinking AI boat. ;)
-
Haha, bug! ;D
-
yea, bug, but still funny
-
Captian didnt have time to jump off. :D

Ive had the container ship in mission 5 capsize, then get hit by another ship- right itself (still listing) and then finally capsize after several seconds.
Dont know if this is deliberate or a bug. Was fun to watch though.

Hit a sail boat with a larger ship and look real Quick and it sill sink not just capsize.

Hmmm, Ship Sim, I noticeed the route marked by the wake of your boat, surely you did not purposefully run over an inocent sailor and his yacht...did you? :o :D
-
I've tried re-capsizing the freighter to make a screen shot and I can't repeat it. It definately happened and I'm not imagining it.
It happened just steering right onto the river in mission 5. Was hit by small boat, shunted into oncoming frieghter and capsized.
I get the impression that this was a deliberate coded part of the sim, but one that wasn't completed.
Anyone else managed this? Would be a good start for 2008 realism!

Let me explain once more:
Probably, if everything goes according to plan, boats will be able to sink in ss2008. A damage model is being developed, so if you hit anything, there will be a scratch on the right spot of the hull. Or a bump. Or a crack. Or a hole. And if the crack or hole is under the waterline, the ship will be filled up with water and yes, it will sink.
Does this answer your question?
-
Yes, it does! :D

You should run him over with the Titanic

I used the closest boat and the classic yacht was it. ;)

I have one small question about sinking ships in 2008.....
Lets say for instance that I hit something with the Titanic, and it starts sinking. Will I be able to use walk around mode, and walk around the ship as it's sinking, or will one of these two things happen... A window comes up saying the ship has taken too much damage and show the ship simply sinking.... or.... I just won't be able to enable walk around mode, and will only be able to watch the ship sink from the outside view.
And also, regardless of what the answer is to the previous questions, when the ship has completely sank, will the game session automatically quit, bring up a window saying it's over, or will I have to manually end the session?

That sounds great! :D
-
Can someone please post a video of a ship sinking in SS08? Thanks.
-
when a ship sinks, are you still able to walk on it then? because that would be awsome, ''the last moments on the ship that will be gone in a few minutes'' ;D
like in the pirates of the caribbean game, you have to watch your ship sinking, and you can't walk anymore on deck, that is a big shame :(
-
If the titanic sinks, will we also be able to see it split in two depending on which way it sinks? that would awsome even on the other ships!!!!!
-
i don't think they gonna make a split in titanic, that is too much work, and requires a lot of your processor, and it is not neccesairy in my eyes, but i had one little question, are you able to walk on the stern deck of titanic, because in SS2006 you can't get on the stern because you have to go inside but you can't go inside.

The Stern is accessible in Ship Sim 2008, yes. Ship Simulator development is an on-going process and new areas to explore may be added in the future too.
I am not saying that this will happen, but it's always a possibility :D

EDIT: I didn't notice that the Stern was available initially, so I have now edited this post and added a picture ;)
