RULE 15 - ACQUIRING RIGHT OF WAY

You need to FIX the ruling on a boat sailing on port down wind rail to rail with another boat being able to gybe and draw a foul with milliseconds of time left to react. Room to keep clear is just as important of a rule as port-starboard. Also proper course needs to be factored in, how is someone drawing a fowl while reaching on a downwind leg. This game is basically less about how to race and more about how to draw a foul.

Also what REALLY needs development is the HUD and UI. For the HUD, the wind sock is TINY, and it can be hard to tell if the VMG is good with it sometimes. A slider in the settings to make it bigger would be great and make it more accessible to everyone. For the UI, I would LOVE if I could rearrange the button layout, make them small, make them big, etc, and place them where I want on the screen to interact with. The only UI option is to mirror the controls (turning & tack/luff).

The game is great. I enjoy the physics, boats, and tactics. The rules need serious work.

Love the game nonetheless.

PLEASE improve the HUD and UI

The game is great. I enjoy the physics, boats, and tactics. I think there’s a lot of potential in just allowing players to have a more customizable game experience.
(Also a first person view mode would be sick)

Love the game.
