   We are trying to find where everyone is at so that in the future, so that in the future, VStep will know if how popular Ship Simulator is and where - but also it will tell the devs possibly what next ports need to be added to the game - always wanted that port in town to be on Ship Simulator? Well, who knows, with enough information from you and fellow gamers it may just happen!

   The more VStep knows about it's gamers and fans, the more can be done to make Ship Simulator more and more of the ultimate ship simulation platform!


Thanks for your help everyone!
