Sometimes I sit and bob at the dock in Nanaimo in the Caravan Amphibian, does that count? 😅

Any Simulator acceleration? (like x 100)...

Demo's free. I messed with it. In some ways it's better than other ship sims out there (most of which are awful). I think this one has potential.

The controls for all vessels, whether it's a little pilot boat or a big freighter, are identical in the cockpit. Same switch panel, radar screen, etc. That'll probably change as they continue working on it.

Different vessels do have different actual systems. Some have bow/stern thrusters, some have azipods, etc.

Like other ship sims, this one gets the azipods wrong. They're almost always configured as pullers on real vessels, but in the game they're pushers like normal screws are, which made me crash the tugboat into the dock the first time I tried it.

The graphics are nothing to write home about, but maybe they'll get better as development continues.

My main complaint right now is that you can't walk around the boat. It's just camera views, which are moveable, but it really should be a FPS-style movement when you aren't at the helm.

No time acceleration that I could find, but you also only get an hour to bob around in the demo and you can only donk around in harbors and very close to shore so it would be kind of silly at this point.

Many of us add shipping traffic to our flight sim, does this add airplane traffic? 😄
