Captains,

The following changes were applied today, April 23:

• Trading Improvements
  Ports buying trading resources will no longer drastically drop prices when fully stocked. The trader tool will now provide more accurate pricing information, helping traders make better-informed decisions on where to deliver goods.
  
  
• Loot Adjustments
  Slightly increased the amount of doubloons dropped when sinking second-rate NPC ships in the Open World.
  
  
• Module Interface Update
  Module information cards now include the module’s group and weight.
  
  
• Combat Changes
  Slightly increased grape shot damage.
  Increased mortar damage and reduced required crew.
  
  
• Boarding Improvements
  Reduced the likelihood of NPCs reacting to last-second command switches during boarding:
  
  • First and Second Rates: 75%
    
  • Third Rates: 60%
    
  • Fourth Rates: 50%
    
  • Fifth Rates: 25%
    
  • Sixth Rates: 10%
    
  • Seventh Rates: 0%
    
  
  Slightly reduced the impact of crew loss differences on morale during boarding.
  
  
• Consumable Adjustments
  Reduced the weight of hull and rig repairs from 2.0 to 1.25, allowing players to save more hold space for other consumables.
