Update 0.21 Patch Notes

Major New Features - Big Ship Customization: you can now customize the sails, masts, stays and more, on all the big ships. Many new large sails are available at the shipyards - Wind Shadow: Sails will now cast a "wind shadow" on other sails, meaning that a sail will not be able to catch any wind if there is another sail in front of it, blocking the wind. The strength of the shadow effect depends on the area of the sail as well as distance between the sails. Other New Features - multiple square sails on one mast will now be automatically linked together, so that you can turn them all with only one set of sheet winches - the sail area of each sail is now displayed in the shipyard - the shipyard camera can now be moved by holding right mouse button - several other shipyard UI improvements - added a "high precision physics" setting (on by default) which should improve the stability of item physics, especially when stacking several crates on top of each other - crates and barrels will now make a sound when dropped Balance Changes - changed the way sail area is calculated to be more consistent with the real size of the sail - sail prices are now automatically calculated based on their size and type - increased the price of hull cleaning and the shipyard fee - shipyard fee will now be charged only once per visit to the shipyard Bug fixes - item crates will now display a hint text about taking items with right mouse button when looked at - fixed many collision-related bugs when installing sails in the shipyard - furling/unfurling a sail should now fix any visual cloth glitches - the cog should no longer have any extra unused winches - many other minor bug fixes, and performance and stability improvements

Set sail towards adventure in the world of Sailwind! This sailing simulator with survival elements features realistic sailing physics and a vast open world to explore. Embark on cargo delivery missions, customize your boat with furniture and decorations, or enjoy some fishing.

Take it easy and go for a calm, relaxing trip around the local islands, or, when you're ready for some adventure, buy a big boat and go on a dangerous voyage across the ocean to distant lands. Use navigation instruments, the sun and the stars to stay on course, battle storms and high winds, and don't forget to stock enough food and water for the long journey!

SAILING

Full realistic sailing physics – in order to sail successfully, you’ll have to tack, reef the sails in heavy weather, keep track of the direction of the wind to find the perfect angle. Watch out for the ever changing weather and waves!

Six boats of different sizes and sail plans to choose from, each with its own unique sailing characteristics and performance.

ADVENTURE & SURVIVAL

There are many reasons to set sail – cargo delivery, fishing, exploration, or simply for pleasure.
Looking for some relaxation? Enjoy the sunny beaches and crystal clear waters around the tropical archipelagos.
Ready for an adventure? Buy a big boat, stock up on supplies, plot your route and set sail for an epic ocean voyage, where you will battle high waves, heavy winds, and where running out of food or water is a real danger.

OPEN WORLD

The world consists of many islands across three distinct regions, each with unique climate, architecture and economy. Drop anchor or dock your boat, step off and explore each island freely. Make sure to stock up on food and water – both in game and in real life, as a journey across the ocean can take many hours of real time with no land in sight!

NAVIGATION

Use navigation instruments such as the compass and quadrant to determine your heading and position. Observe the sun and stars, chart your position on the map, and hope you don’t get too far off course on the long journey across the vast ocean.

BOAT CUSTOMIZATION

Your boat is your home on the sea. Make it feel cozy by customizing with furniture, decorations and paint. Cook your own food, clean and polish the deck, and at the end of the day, sit in a chair and have some rum or smoke a pipe while watching the sunset.
