I Protest!!!

  • It is really getting old looking at the blank ships name on the ships crest. This has been a problem for sooo long.

    I realize it is a cosmetic bug, but come on.

    I protest!

  • It's been really hittin' me the last couple of months.

    It's unfortunate but they improved the logbook situation so that makes it less irritating.

    It'll get worked out, they've made a lot of improvements with Captaincy overall, just takes time.

  • @wolfmanbush Have you noticed that if you login the first time, it is blank, but if you log out, then back in, say to try a different server, then it shows up?

    no pattern that I've picked up for me but I also haven't really looked for one

    I tend to be on a server for a longer amount of time so I don't hop to fix it, just ride with whatever.

    It also resets if you toggle "Hide Ships Names" in the HUD Options on/off.

  • Most the time I don’t look at my crest. I know all features still work so that all that matters

    This. I just toggle all the settings under Name Visibility on and off and it fixes.

    It's related to a bug with the settings saving that's been an issue for almost a year now.

    This is a really good workaround, thanks for posting this!!

    Yeah I am looking forward to trying it out.

    The bells and whistles of Captaincy add so much qol and immersion for solo play imo

    I like seeing the name and the logbook info.

  • @wolfmanbush "...The bells and whistles of Captaincy add so much qol and immersion for solo play imo..."

    Yes, for me the game is "RPvPvE". I have a sloop for each faction 🙃

  • I thought I lost naming privileges on my alt account because I kept getting random names. Deleted my boat and renamed it. Still had rando names so I gave up for a little while lol

    That's one of the things I really enjoy about it, the options that serve most people.

    I'm a one pirate, one Captained sloop kind of player and other players can have a bunch of boats for different scenarios.

    I've only had one Captained boat and have sailed it since the first day of release so nearly all of my ship activity lines up with my pirate activity starting on that day. That's really cool for my immersion and adding substance to activity and sailing around.

    Entirely changed the game for the better imo

  • Me too, fix this!!!!!

  • I care so little about 99% of the features behind Captaincy that I didn't even realize this was an issue.

    I protest too!!!
