Chapter 1183 - How to Control the Ship
Li Ming and his teammates were not interested in the primary sampan that the Junior Nautical Research Institute was able to make, and now the research institute has been upgraded to the intermediate level, and the new ship is about to leave the port this morning after rapid construction......
Li Ming and his teammates, including the three guild leaders and a group of alliance leaders, gathered on top of the seawall early in the morning, watching the black smoke rising from the chimneys of the large row of dockyard workshops on the left hand side in front of them, and the cooldown time was in the last few minutes.
They will soon see the first ships produced in the dockyard, and the first fleets of the three alliances will appear!
Standing on the seawall and waiting for time, the core players are looking at the screenshots in front of them......

……
The two screenshots in front of them respectively introduce the attributes of the two buildable medium-sized ships currently provided by the Intermediate Navigation Research Laboratory, and what they are about to see is that these two types of ships have been successfully built.
This time, the 14 docks spent nearly 30 million yuan to build 9 medium-sized passenger and cargo ships and 5 medium-sized warships at one time, forming the first maritime fleet of the three major alliances.
"Even ships have durability, but what does that cargo capacity mean, and what is the difference between units?" Fan Hua asked curiously.
"The unit of a passenger and cargo ship is the number of cargo that can be loaded, and the number of players that can be transported, and the ship can be fully loaded with 5,000 players without cargo." Shocking Lan explained with a smile.
"I see, but the cargo ship's wind and wave resistance level is only level 5, which means that there are still too few sea areas that it can go to, and it will be dangerous if it encounters level 6 wind and waves." Avril said worriedly.
"Therefore, according to the rules of the system, the crew of the ship must be extra careful of the wind and waves at sea, and once they find an area that exceeds level 5 wind and waves, they will immediately avoid tragedy." Shocking City laughed.
"It's still a reliable battleship, and the distribution of weapons is so powerful!" Kelp said in surprise.
"After all, the role of a battleship is to fight, but the transportation volume of a battleship is too low, and the cost is more expensive, almost twice the price and materials of a medium-sized passenger and cargo ship." Shocking Lan said with a sigh.
"At present, we will build this fleet to explore the outer seas, and then build the rest of the fleet after it is upgraded to the advanced level, so as not to waste too much material and money." Li Ming nodded and said.
This fleet was only used as a tool for early exploration of the sea, because the scale was too small to be suitable for further seas, so he did not plan to build much at the beginning, but asked the craftsmen to quickly upgrade the nautical research institute and shipyard to master more advanced ship construction methods.
At this time, the countdown to the reality of the 14 tall docks lined up outside the seawall finally disappeared, and the 14 to black smoke on the chimney became thicker and thicker.
Woooooo
A dull whistle sounded, and in the direction of the dock to the sea, 14 ships appeared in unison, slowly heading towards the nearby harbor.
All the ships have been built, but there is no pilot on the ship, and the system just temporarily docks these ships around the harbor and waits for the players to control them.
These large items cannot be stored in a package, and in the first minute they are built, they call a harbor home, a harbor can accommodate 10 medium-sized ships at the same time, and if there are too many ships, more harbors will need to be built.
Nine of the 14 search boats are identical, with three sails on them, driven entirely by the wind, and at average speed.
The five, which looked smaller, but were faster, with metal barrels and turrets all over their hulls, sailed faster towards the nearby harbor.
Craftsmen immediately flocked to the harbor, ready to board the ships and try their hand at manoeuvring the ships.
It is said that the handling of the ship is not difficult, but it is not easy either.
It is very easy to control the ship at sea, but how to avoid the dangers of wind and waves in advance requires players to familiarize themselves with the process of sailing.
"Let's go and see." Li Ming smiled and waved his hand and led the commanders to the harbor......
The so-called seaport is a square platform built on the sea surface outside the seawall, but the seaport is not directly connected to the seawall, they are distributed on the sea surface dozens of meters outside the seawall, connecting the seawall and the harbor is a long water corridor.
Li Ming and the commanders walked to the side of the seawall first, down the steps to the promenade, and then all the way to the top of the harbor.
The square platform resembles a large cargo yard, and several passenger ships and warships have automatically docked around the platform.
Li Ming locked onto a warship, and seeing that the players were climbing up the rope ladder on the ship, they also hurried to the harbor side and grabbed the rope to climb up quickly.
As he climbed onto the ship, as soon as he stood on the deck, a system prompt popped up in front of him......
Bite...... System: Congratulations to the player for successfully landing on [Medium Battleship 1], with a current passenger capacity of 59/1000 and a pilot of 0/30!
Bite...... System: [Medium Battleship No. 1] sets the name of the system, and the player of this ship can choose a captain to rename the ship!
……
"You can also name the ship again, Brother Ming will think of one." Fan Hua said with a smile.
"There's no need to be so troublesome, and it's not a superb battleship, why bother so much, it's more convenient to call it Medium Battleship No. 1, and it's not too late to name it when there are better battleships in the future." Li Ming shook his head and said.
"Then you don't need to name it, the driver still needs to be reassigned, how to set it now?" Fu Ziyan asked.
"It's also very simple, as long as the player is assigned to the designated control position, the system will default to the driver in place." Li Ming had read the ship's control instructions, and now he knew a lot.
When the players get on the ship, they are defaulted to the loading list of the ship, and then each player goes to each control position of the ship, which is equivalent to the pilot is in place and can officially operate the ship.
Under the deployment of the shock, a group of craftsmen immediately went to the command room in the center of the bridge according to the position specified on the ship's plan, and sat in the captain's position to automatically become the captain, and stood in the helmsman position to be the helmsman.
Standing in the sail control position, it is the sailor, if there is a weapon operation position, it will automatically default to the weapon operator, and the position of each pilot has a specific area on the ship.
As the system prompts continued to jump out, the 30 pilots on this warship quickly arrived one by one and could leave the port directly and go to sea.
Woooooo
A loud horn sounded on the bridge, reminding players that the ship was fully deployed and ready to sail......
