Newbie Questions

[Gonzo23]

I´ve got two questions which can be asked only from a noob, so please forgive me :lol:

The first one:
Is it right, that my crew does not need to rest as long as i got time speed over 32?

The second one:
Do I really need to sail back to my habour? I read something about 100 extra points

Thanks for your answers and plese forgive me my terrible English

Above TC32 your crew will neither fatigue nor gain any rest, so it's good to keep above this where possible.

If you use the esc key to return to port you lose 100 reknown, which is no big deal really unless you find yourself 100 short for a new boat or an upgrade in which case you'll kick yourself. I've only use return to base a couple of times when the game has slowed down so much that the return journey was going to be completely unbearable. I find it more satisfying to sail into port, it kind of finishes the mission up.

Worth mentioning: The 100 points depend on the realism setting. A 47% realism setting will cause 100x0.47=47 points.

Actually that does not seem to be exactly correct. You always get a base 25% of the earned renown. On top of that you get realism% * 75% renown. So 47% realism would get you about 60% of the earned renown.
