to get things right the entire list of ships one by one must have its damage models redone and nobody felt like spending 2 years of their life working full time 8 hours a day (guestimate only) to get it right.

sadly its just a game and will never be as accurate or realistic as we like and realistic floatation, damages, and sinking behavior just doesnt look posible so we must be happy with what we have and to some extent with the right mods its not too unrealistic
I was under the impression that winds were limited to 15 m/s, and that this was the factor that prevented realistic weather. Can winds be set to greater than 15 m/s ?
