Checked out the forum thread and your videos; your progress looking good so far! I really hope you don't lose interest before you release version 1.0 as it is an incredibly long journey to design and implement a complex game like this.

I have a technical question: It is my understanding Unreal Engine 4 is designed for and suited to small(ish) worlds how are you going to handle drawing a massive scale ocean world like Silent Hunter 3 or 4?

origin rebasing with custom mathlib or massive engine modification (almost rewrite)?
