A "Hide UI" hot key for a clear screen when taking screenshots.

Thanks for the suggestions!
Free roam is implemented, you can add merchants as target practice or bring along some friendly ships to practice commanding a fleet.

I will add a hide UI key to the list!

Cheers!

That's great! I can grab a nice screenshot, tweak it up with Photoshop, and set it as my desktop background.

I will DEFINITELY be purchasing this title.

I was just playing, "War On the Sea", and after a battle I had a cruiser burning from stem to stern, with heavy flooding. It probably should have sunk, but I manually managed Damage Control and eventually saved it, reducing damage from Heavy to Minor, and flooding from Heavy to None. She had 100% speed and 99% efficiency when I was done. I lost one secondary gun mount.

I'd like to see an in-depth Damage Control system in Battleship Command if it would be reasonable to implement such a system. Maybe have an option for automatic DC or Manual, with the ability to switch by clicking an in-game button.

I'm hoping that the game will get a Steam page fairly soon, with a demo available. I think that would make a lot more potential customers aware of it, and begin to build some anticipation for the title.

This is probably my most eagerly awaited new title. I'm hoping that it's a resounding success. Having watched all the videos, I'm excited!

Thanks for the kind words Oubaas!

Yes, damage control will have a vital role in the game since you need to make it back home to base in the patrol type missions.
I am still refining how I will implement it, but it will be possible to handle it manually or let the crew take care of it.

I can't say anything yet about Steam/demo/early access 🙂
But hopefully I can announce a plan soon.

Sounds great, Bracer! Thanks for the information. I'll be looking forward to any news.
