When I did Living Breathing Ocean I designed the ocean to simulate that wind speed as best as possable but if the wave's are too high then smaller ship's start to sink and in port ship's also get destroyed hitting the dock's.
Originaly in the game the scale of the ocean was so far off even the sub's would not ride the wave's proper and floated accross from one wave to the other and even some of the ship's did.
I got everything as realistic as possable with out major problems with ship's and so that sub's could still recharge batteries.
This is how the ocean use to look and work before my work and what the sub's did in those sea's.
