Old new vessel...

I liked it then and in Voortberand Besparen so I'm looking forward to downloading it for SS08

Inland vessels are not intended to work on the sea in open water, doing that is like commiting suicide.

P.S. I just corrected her name in the topic title.

I can't belive they remade by favourite o6 ship for 08, I am happy. When I read the installer I was shocked to realise they actually added a walkthrough mode, I'm even happier. Maybe they read my suggestion

Good to see she finally arrived in SS08!
A Big Thanks to all who involved in creating these add-ons!

I really like the Wachaven, i've only had it for a few hours though. Can you load containers on the Wachaven in free roaming moad? ;

Captain. Mitch · « **Reply #15 on:** February 15, 2010, 00:18:49 »

Every new vessel is an very good thing for all players i think!!!
So it's for me too! Nice job! Very good player objects!

But there are a lot of cargo ships in the game, so it's not some big chnage...
But it's an great ship, and ncie job for the creators.
The Sea Cloud it would be good to see as an playable ship!!!

Good bye!

I like it a lot, good to see a inland ship again.

It only is strange that the ship is impossible to turn when you have the bow spring line to the dock. (same with the superpack containership)

Traddles · « **Reply #17 on:** February 16, 2010, 16:03:16 »

Hi Sam,
Is this what you mean? If you wait for just about 50 seconds she does spring off OK. I attach a little test mission for you to try. It does nothing except let you try springing off the Quayside.

You can try it going ahead using the for'd spring or going astern using the after spring, it should work OK both ways. Always best to do it going ahead in reality though, then no danger of smashing the prop or rudder. Sorry

I must be getting too old

I should have said "Hard a'port"

Sam · « **Reply #18 on:** February 16, 2010, 22:44:40 »

I tried it just like that and it won't work $:-\$

Traddles · « **Reply #19 on:** February 16, 2010, 23:19:14 »

Sorry you are not having any joy with this one Sam. I am sure it must be very annoying, but I understand other players also have the same problem and not only with this ship. Some time ago I seem to remember posting on how to get "North Star" off her berth and turned 180 degrees when her engine was stuck in ahead gear only. Players then reported it did not work for them. I honestly cannot give you an explanation why this happens.

Yea i used to have that problem too, having difficulties turning the North Star especially when docking her. The same thing is with the Elbe but thanks to some developer who recently added a virtual bow thruster from her super pack.

K Jack · « **Reply #21 on:** February 17, 2010, 02:11:29 »

"Wachthaven III" not bad. Although i'll be more interested to see the sea foam left by the vessel.

Sam · « **Reply #22 on:** February 17, 2010, 09:59:55 »

Well, I think a tug as old as Elbe shouldn't have a bowthruster biceaus you can perfectly moore her with spring lines.
(If it works, that is

)

But with the pushboat I can perfectly do it (only for casting off with the spring line of the barge)

All people who are moaning about sea foam, does that affect the simulation THAT much?
I am sick of people to ask for all these stupid features when they even don't know how to manouver a ship.
I think the dynamics and manouvering characteristics need some more attention.

If you put a slow speed two stroke engine from full ahead to reverse to fast then you can have a black out.
If you use 100%mcr at 45Â° rudder then your engine overheats instantly.
A ship with controllable pitch propellors can go much faster from full ahead to astern.
And much more.

I think those features need some more attention in stead of adding more and more ships.
And maybe ARPA

McGherkin · « **Reply #23 on:** February 17, 2010, 10:27:00 »

This is a â‚¬20 game, not a â‚¬4000 professional simulator

K Jack · « **Reply #24 on:** February 17, 2010, 10:49:43 »

People are just curious, Sam bacause look at other forums based on new ships been added to SS08 and they always complain about the problem about it. And some if not all, are based on missing features of a ship and they thought that was affecting their simulation. And its not only based on maneuvering a ship but how they want to navigate it in the comfort of other ships passing by especially when they out there in the real world. You don't expect them to be that good in maneuvering a ship but by saying that we don't need these stupid features is discouraging. I like this game because i love ships no matter how big and small or how fast and slow they are, I could maneuver them to the best of my ability and experience that i have.
