Note: The [[small raft]] floatsA floating, but cannot be boarded, so does not even count as a boatwooden vessel - outfitted with an array of nautical materials and mechanisms to make it controllable. A ship is used to sail the seven seas.

== Security and Permissions==

*Without an attached [[boat lock]] that is appropriately set with permissions, anyone can use the a ship. If the ship is not [[mooring anchor|moored]] it can also be pushed away. It is therefore highly recommended that players lock AND moor their ships for ultimate security.*The owner and any person with the ''Manage'' right can manage the overall usage permissions through the ''Manage vehicle'' menu option. The permissions window is available only if the ship is locked, however. These permissions control ''drive'' (embarking as commander), ''mount'' (embarking as a passenger), ''accessing the inventory hold'' of the ship, "dragging" the ship, and ''managing the item''. Each of these rights can be dragged granted or denied to any individual player. All rights, except "manage item", can also be assigned by group, such as "citizens", "alliance" or "everyone". The player listed as the current owner will always have all permissions. *To secure a ship from being pushed away, it can be moored by right clicking the ship and using "moor" with a [[mooring anchor]] inside the ships inventory. *A ship can be moored by the commander or passengers, but only the commander can raise the anchor.*On [[Freedom]], ships cannot be [[Lockpicking|lockpicked]] (except by owner). Attempts will result in the message ''Stealing boats is punished with the death penalty here. You decide not to''.

*Ships are made using [[ship building]], started by combining two [[keel section]]s.*The person to attach the last piece to an unfinished ship becomes the owner and original signed maker when it is finished. Ownership can then be transferred by the owner in , to a new owner, through the vehicle management window.*When a ship is created, a default 1 ql lock is automatically attached to the ship, the ship is locked, and permissions are enabled. The owner of the ship can change the [[boat lock]] which may be necessary for security on PvP servers. The lock can only be removed and reattached by the owner on PvE servers.

== General Sailing, Operation == *Most ships require some [[mind logic|Mind logic]] to operate. See [[#Vessel Details|Vessel Details]] for more information on this.*Ships with a [[quality]] of less than 10 cannot be commanded. This includes ships whose [[damage]] percentage would calculate to bring the quality below 10 (eg. a 12 quality ship with 17 damage calculates to a ship below 10 quality).*The owner and achievable speed of a ship at any person with one time is determined by 5 factors: the quality of the ship, the type of ship it is, the ''Manage'' right can manage number of crew (players) aboard the usage permissions through a window available via ship, weather/wind factors, and any runes mounted on the ''Manage vehicle'' menu optionship. The exact weight given and formula attributed to each of these speed-deciding factors need further confirmation by staff.

The permissions control ''drive'' ==Server-Crossing Mechanics ==*On Freedom servers, you need permission to command the boat, set individually for you, to sail to another server (embarking anyone can cross as commanderpassengers). On Epic servers, ''mount'' (embarking you can cross servers as friend too - the ownership transfers to the commander then.*When crossing servers from one map to another, the lettered/numbered grid always aligns from one map to the next. For example, if a player crosses a passenger), ''accessing border east/west at the inventory hold'' M-letter of the ship and ''managing grid, they will end up on the settings''same M-letter gridline on the next map. Each * The server arrangement map found at https://www.dropbox.com/s/49ny4u0v6lstgwo/freedom.png?dl=0 was originally intended for use with the game before course-plotting was a sailing feature. This means that now, it is only representative of these rights can be granted or denied the geographic layout one might expect if sailing across a border without plotting course. By plotting a course, the arrangements on this map become irrelevant as the game directly "wormholes" the vessel to ''all friends''the destination map of choice in the plotting panel. Furthermore, ''all villagers'' and ''everyone''. The owner when crossing using the plot feature, the destination map will always has all permissions. The settings only take affect if align with what would be assumed correct geographically: sailing south from one map, once across the server line, puts the player sailing toward the north shore of the ship is locked howevertarget map, etc, etc.

The owner of the ship == Warning Messages ==* Crossing too near to a map corner can attach cause game issues and is advised against. If you are too close to a corner, you may get this message: {{event|inline|Suddenly, strong winds and waves throw you overboard!}} *If you are approaching a [[boat lock]] server border without a destination set, you will see this message: {{event|inline| You see dark shadows moving beneath the waves. There is nothing in this direction.}}. *If you are too close to it to enable permissions. The lock can be removed by everyone a server border without a destination set, you will see this message: {{event|inline|You feel a disturbance in posession of the key but only currents. You are approaching the owner can attach it againedge of these lands and should turn back immediately.}}.

To secure == Additional Notes ==* Plotting a course is possible only when aboard a ship from drifting or being dragged or pushed away it's important to moor it with as the commander.*Ships can be transported over land using a [[mooring anchorship_transporter|ship transporter]]. A *The [[small raft]] is not considered a functional ship can , as it floats but cannot be moored boarded or commanded.*It is possible to disembark directly onto dry land from a ship by the commander right-clicking a nearby tile of dry land and any passenger but only the commander can raise the anchorselecting ''disembark''.*Ships cannot be hauled up ladders

On [[Freedom]] ships can not be [[Lockpicking|lockpicked]]. Trying so will result in the message ''Stealing boats is punished with death penalty here. You decide not to''. == Notes ==*If you are building a ship larger than a small sailing boat inside a cart, it will become too heavy to drag. Make sure to move the cart next to water before it gets too heavy. See [[small cart]] to find out how much you can drag.*The person to attach the last piece to an unfinished ship becomes the owner when it is finished.*Currently there are no beneficial results from improving the quality of a ship.*Ships with a [[quality]] of less than 10 cannot be commanded. ==Vessel DetailsChart==<div style="overflow-x: auto">{| border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="10" style="text-align:center;" class="wikitable sortable"!scope="col" width="100" data-sort-type="text" |Vessel |!scope="col" width="100" data-sort-type="number" | Mind Logic |!scope="col" width="100" data-sort-type="number" | Total Occupants* ^{[[#Note_1|[1]]]} !scope="col" width="100" data-sort-type="number" | Maximum Solo Speed (km/h) !scope="col" width="100" data-sort-type="number" |Maximum speed (full crew) !scope="col" width="100" data-sort-type="number" | Commander Propulsion (approx. km/h)*' ^{[[#Note_2|[2]]]} !scope="col" width="100" data-sort-type="number" | Hold Capacity (Volume)*^ ^{[[#Note_3|[3]]]} !scope="col" width="100" data-sort-type="number" | Hold Capacity (Rafts) !scope="col" width="100" data-sort-type="number" | Hold Capacity (Sm Crates) !scope="col" width="100" data-sort-type="number" |Hold Capacity (Lg Crates) !scope="col" width="100" data-sort-type="number" | Footprint Size ^{[[#Note_4|[4]]]} !scope="col" width="100" data-sort-type="number" | Height** ^{[[#Note_5|[5]]]} !scope="col" width="100" data-sort-type="number" | Draft** <sup>[[#Note_6|[6]]] !scope="col" width="100" data-sort-type="number" | Minimum Passable Depth !scope="col" width="100" data-sort-type="number" |Creature Cage Capacity!scope="col" width="100" data-sort-type="number" | Weight (Kg)|-| [[Crude canoe]] || 19.5(?) || 2 || ? || || 7.2 || 0 || 0 || 0 || 0 || 1x1x1 || 3 Dirt || 5 Dirt || 5 || 0 || 120
