Known issue, but I don't currently have an ETA for a fix.

As others have said, the design itself is fine My suggestion: Make the yellow areas pure white at an opacity of about 70%, and leave the red completely transparent (0% opacity). That way you can color the dragons however you like in-game, and color the sail beneath it separately.

Actually, Sadet provided the "Flag and Sail Requests" link. What you actually want to do to let people know you've posted a flag or sail on which to vote is to post in the Flag and Sail Votes sticky.

So this doesn't become a duplicate thread, I'll close it now.

Sadly, this is going to take a bit to get sorted. As Aether noted, we have the data but it's scattered to hell and gone so for each case we get to look in multiple different places for it with a tool that tends to time out when searching. So it's a slow, painful process. We're so sorry about all this. As much for the pain it's causing us as the pain it's causing you.

We are, however, working on it. And working on it. And working on it. We'll get you sorted as quickly as we can. Thanks for your patience and again with the apologies.

Port battles might be easier, but I don't know. You are correct in that I misinterpreted.

Doh! Here's the correct link. http://www.burningsea.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19906

We definitely don't want to significantly increase the number of ports you can book passage to, and as a result we don't want to increase the number of ships you can have at one time. However, we would very much like to increase your ability to store additional ships. Our current thinking is to set up a 'dry dock' in one particular port (maybe the capital, maybe any port you've built a warehouse in, maybe other), where you can put ships 'in storage'. You can store a much larger number of ships there, but their cargo holds must be empty, so we don't give you infinite cargo storage space. If you have an open ship slot, you can take one of those ships out of storage, and then use it normally.

Does that sound like it would meet you needs?

Decals appearing backwards on sails is a different problem, about which several threads have been made. The latest I heard is that about half the ships are fixed as of the latest patch, and the other half should be fixed in a subsequent patch.

If your sail looked correct before and doesn't look right now, then file a support request -- otherwise, it's a known bug and we've been going through the ships systematically to fix it.

I was just in DesignCo to talk about something else, and this came up, and there was great enthusiasm. And Joe said "Yes, we should absolutely do this." The only question is where it comes up in the dev schedule, because we have to provide behavior for you to switch out your ship for a better ship if you have an invalid ship (everywhere a ship, ship) when you get a port battle invitation.
