I spidered and downloaded every document i could find on maritime.org some 80,000+ pages, figures and images.
That with my new reading material (C++ books) should have me on my way to making some good simulations.
I did some beginner setups for missions and boat fittting out today.
Its mostly GUI work as most of the graphics/simulation I need to learn more, the gameplay I feel just wouldnt be appreciated yet (why shoot at a randomly spawning ship over and over no fun) so I might do some cinematic renderings. And start modelling the interior of a pig boat.
(Theres over 500 pages and images on the 5" gun alone... I could spend days reading this, if only I had the skills to boil it down to gameplay fast enough)
Pretty close to getting a simple crew and sub-systems selection screen setup and then some projectile work, a few bot AI ships to shoot at and then gonna get back to learning more C++/UE4 API. We'll call it v0.1-alpha
