1.0.2 - Patch

Ahoy, Captains!

We continue to work on the game's stability and fixes. Here is the list of changes:

Quests and Story

• FixedPeter Blood's QuestlineFixed NPC behavior during the capture of the "Cinco Llagas." Allies no longer get stuck on ladders, blocking cutscene progression.

• The Story of Isabel:

  • Removed the risk of a softlock in Isabel's house when trying to wait for dinner using the rest function;

  • Fixed an error where Isabel could stop responding to the player after boarding a ship near Portobelo.

• "Kill All Beggars" Questline:

  • Fixed a softlock in the captain's cabin that led to loss of character control after leaving the Fort Orange mines;

  • Fixed a dialogue error in the cabin when the chaplain was the only officer on the ship.

  • Ship chests are now visible in Justino's item storage cell.

• "Captain's Commission (Ransom)" Quest:

  • The quest now correctly accounts for the possibility of rescuing the slave from any available plantations and mines, not just from Barbados.

  • Fixed the description of escape objectives;

  • Fixed missing entries in the ship's log.

• "Enchanted City" Quest:

  • Fixed an error causing the quest to close prematurely after boarding the quest ship;

  • Fixed the missing final dialogue with Elizabeth.

• "Island of Justice":

  • Malcolm Fown now guaranteed to leave the ship after the story segment;

  • Adjusted the logic of the Narwhal clan and their aggressiveness inside the ship;

  • The Narwhal clan leader now remains immortal strictly until the required story moment;

  • Fixed door blocking after destroying the Casper clan (if the player was without a support squad);

  • Fixed an error in the log entry about the bartender's readiness if the conversation with him had not yet occurred.

• "Leif the Lucky" Quest:

  • The Viking sarcophagus can now be opened with a crowbar again.

  • It is no longer possible to enter the tomb prematurely through the door.

  • Attention! Players who have completed the "Tenochtitlan" quest will be given an additional Jade Skull in certain cases. This is to prevent a softlock for those players who have not yet had time to disenchant the captain as part of the "Enchanted City" quest.

• Fixes for other quests:

  • Multiple bug fixes for the "Maiden in the Jungle" quest, including those that caused them to disappear from the game permanently.

  • Fixed a softlock in the "Pirate's Proposal" quest when transitioning to the companion's ship.

  • Fixed character getting stuck in the jungle when the player prematurely attacks the Indians.

  • The generated quest "Family Heirloom" is no longer given in settlements without moneylenders.

  • Fixed Halen's combat behavior in the "Condottiere" quest if the fight occurs in the port.

Gameplay and Balance

• Trade and Freight:

  • Fixed an error with incorrect weight of goods (e.g., bricks) when merchants issued freight. The quantity of goods issued now always matches the order.

  • Pirate shops now only offer freight to pirate settlements if a pirate flag is raised on the ship.

  • Provisions have been removed from contraband lists in all shops, as they are essential goods.

  • Fixed sorting of goods in the "Ship's Hold" tab. Planks and canvas no longer disappear from the list when switching tabs.

  • Fixed an error where, when changing the displayed colony, the scroll position of the goods list was retained even though the content reset to the beginning (to the cells).

  • The chest in the hold, where items from boarding are stored when auto-loot is enabled, is now directly available for trade and has priority in the interface.

• Fixed the behavior of "semi-immortal" officers. Resolved an issue with the falling animation, as well as the possibility of automatically using healing potions while in an "unconscious" state.

• The carpenter's tool has been temporarily removed from treasure generation, as it currently has no active gameplay mechanics.

• Changed the logic for stashes inside city buildings.

• Lowered the conditions for showing quest markers on the global map for starting some quests.

• The "Emergency Repair" perk is now available on the "Impossible" difficulty level, due to its necessity later in the skill tree.

Technical and Optimization

• Stability:

  • Optimized log operation to avoid unnecessary entries.

  • Removed micro-stutters and lag when moving on the global map.

• Fixed a critical error that prevented deleting saves through the in-game menu.

• Visual Fixes:

  • Fixed background darkening when using quick save (F6);

  • Fixed tomb collisions on Guadeloupe (you can no longer pass through doors at speed).

  • Adjusted color scheme variants for the Light Corvette.

• Fixed the removal of immortality from Azzi.

• Fixed overlapping of audio tracks (rain and other effects) in sound schemes.

• Added missing animations for Jessica Bradford.

• Fixed errors in equipping the musket and other items for Tichingitu and unique musketeers.

Other

• Added a parrot to one of the middle cabins (for owners of Supporter Pack).

• Implemented "rumor clearing" after finding quest ships to prevent information duplication in the log.

• Fixed model and portrait of the random officer from among the townsfolk hired in the jungle.
