Building
There is an elaborate vessel building interface that allows you to build sea or air vessels in an open world drydock or runway respectively.
Building vessels can be complicated, so check out some of the
community guidesExploration
A massive open world / ocean map filled with islands awaits you! Be warned though! If you go to far out to sea (currently ~50km), the sea monsters may think you are lunch.
Multiplayer
Multiplayer supports every feature that is supported in single player. You can build boats and deploy them and your friends will see them and be able to crew or captain them. Some functionality may be authorized only by the owner of the server depending on the effect.
Chat
The game includes a very basic low profile text based chat to allow for communication during multiplayer. It is intended primarily as a quick message relay and to aid players in connecting on Discord or Steam chat.
Weather
Physical weather systems (Rain, Storms, Fog, Wind, etc.) move around the map and can be monitored for your vessels safety on a journey. The further away from the protection of the islands the more intense the affect the weather will have on your vessel and the ocean waves around you. Be prepared for severe weather such as "tidal" force waves and whirlpools.
