There is a ligit reason the anchor is not centered. Back in pirate times, there needed to be a direct path from the helm to the rutter on the back of the ship so the axl-(?) Can move the rutter. BUT THERE IS NO RUTTER IN SEA OF THIEVES SO THIS IS STILL POINTLESS

You carry items on your back when using a ladder, fully defying gravity going VERTICAL at an equal speed to not carrying items. But horizontal running with one item drops your speed in half. Why can't we tie items on our back while running? I mean, watch your crew mate carry a chest while looking at the map table. yeah, why can't we do that?

[@djaiko7268]

The anchor not being centered is intentional. On the ships similar to the sloop, the keel and or rudder would be in the way. They were placed to the side of the center for design functionality.

The fact that you can still go forward with the wind fully going against the front of your sail is another subtle reference that the anchor is not centered on a sloop

My friend once had a theory about the skeletons in the planks. He used to to say that the reason that the skeletons spawn from the plank is because they stuffed eggs in the floorboards. I had several questions

It's important when nitpicking online to remind people you're nitpicking every other sentence or else they will forget it and think you're making genuine critiques.

[@Orciwan548]

The skeletons coming out of the floorboards is actually cool bc below those boards is a tomb kind of thing. So it’s like they are rising up to defend the treasure fro that tomb thing.

[@captainofouterspace]

Exploding a barrel full of gunpowder in the hull of a ship puts a couple nicely and easily patchable holes there. And using a handheld bucket can scoop up an entire hull floor of water. But, ya know, it's just a nitpick

[@theodoric4270]

The anchor works like the hand brakes on BMX bikes. The cable goes down to a funny ring thing that lets the handle bars spin all the way around. I don't actually know how BMX brakes work, but it probably explains why the anchor isn't centered.

[@denniscarew3637]

when you pick up the letter, the knife goes thru the table which explains the anchor not being centered on the sloop

[@bluedeath996]

Your sails only provide a forward force and only when the anchor is up. You can't use your anchor to do a stationary turn. You only have one pistol where all flint and wheellock pistols would have been a pair. You take damage when falling from a height, but nothing from being fired out of a cannon. The sloops have square sails but should be lateen sails and the windlass isn't centred.

[@SteamChicken]

The anchor isn’t centered to allow the rudder to be in the center of the boat, it’s quite surprising the Devs actually took that into account when making the models.

[@captaincrooked9051]

wdym the rudder? The capstan is connected to the ancher, the wheel is what is connected to the rudder. Also, note how there is also no connection between the ship's wheel and the rudder, just like the captstan and the anchor it is also wireless. But that is just a nitpick.

[@leosmithzwift3170]

my nitpick is that on the sloop the anchor is too perfectly central its unrealistic to the pirate age and should be adjusted to help my immersion

Dude I’ve only been playing the game for a month and 80% of these questions were ones I wondered about. I love the food comment. Cause there is a dead guy named Griffin at Marauder’s Arch with a note stating, “The pirate Griffin was famed for his love of whole bananas, but cronched his last on this spot.” Thinking about it now it seems the devs were poking fun at the player for the same thing.

[@aidanking6801]

I wonder if the anchor on the sloop isn’t centered

[@MagicGame_]

Funfact: when a fire is hot enough, I produces little to no smoke. Since the tavern fires have been going for years, they must be so how that they dont even need a chimney, hence why its blocked off. Either way there wouldn't be smoke.

[@jameskretschmer9134]

No smoke out the chimney because it actually leads to the upstairs where it is dissipated non visibly by tiny wisps from any cracks in the walls. Can't go upstairs because it's just the smoky room, no reason to let customers in. Can't see the anchor and chain fall because it is made of water. This is also why anchor isn't centered, it has to be close enough connect to a plug on the side of the ship that lets the water for the anchor in. Ocean floor is also made of water. As pirates we're technically stealing any treasure we find, our characters are walk slow when holding it because they simply feel bad about stealing. Coconut doesn't get peeled because coconuts aren't real. Skeletons are made of air which is why they can climb out from wood. Also why when they eat bana you can't see it, it's hidden behind the air. Also why gold slows them down when splashed. No wake behind the ship because its made of water, and since it's surrounded by more water it blends in. The envelope is simply so old and wrinkle able that it melds around any surface almost seamlessly.
