Description
This simulator will give you a realistic experience of what it's like to handle a large ship. It includes some features which often seem to be missing in other simulators:
- Astern effect of the propeller
- Drift during turn
- Pivot point movement
- Rudder effectiveness based on propeller flow and ship's own velocity
- Bow thruster effectiveness influenced by ship's velocity
For the moment there are three ships (cargo ship, supply ship and battle ship). In the future more may be added.
The game is played in a sandbox style with a sea, river and port environment and customisable current. I plan to also add wind effect.
The simulation is based on the mathematical hydrodynamic MMG model which is also used in professional ship handling and mooring simulators.
What’s New
Version 0.18
- Added wind effect (experimental). You can adjust wind direction and force in the settings menu ("Restart / Change ship"). The wind generates a turning moment towards it and a displacement force away from it. Both of these effects are influenced by the shape of the ship's superstructure.
- Increased UI buttons sensitivity for improved usability on small screens
Ratings and Reviews
Needs more improvement
This simulator is good, but the physics just have to be better. It also needs more ships like the Titanic or things like sail boats, speed boats, and more, and also submarines. I would like more maps like harbors, coastal locations and out sea areas. And what I mean about physics is when player boat collides into a NPC boat with explosions and all of that stuff. Improve mechanics and settings And limit the ads. But overall this game is fine, update soon if you can.
Needs to be a camera control deadzone
Great game and realistic. However, there needs to be a deadzone around the EOT, Helm and Bow Thruster controls. Every time I go to drag the sliders I end up moving the camera
Developer Response ,
Hello, I'll check it out. I had no idea it was like that on some devices as on my device it works normally. Thanks for letting me know!
The best game ever
It’s really good but it glitches once in a while, but I wish there was more boards. This is the best game ever. We should go try it right now. There’s different ships there’s battleship or cargo ship even a cruise ship a large container ship it is fun. It’s pretty hard to play but it’s just so fun so it’s hard and fun together.
