Quit the game. Open My Documents/Pirates of the Burning Sea/. Find the file named Prefs.xml and delete it. Then launch the game. That will restore your preferences to default and should make that window reappear.

1 in thread Amazon!!!! @#$%@! [General PotBS Discussion]
As of January 22nd, you need one key to play. This key is usually referred to as an Activation Key or a Retail key. It comes in the retail box with your game, or is sent to you in email on 1/22 if you bought via digital download.

The Landing Party key is an optional key that was included with the preorder deal. The only thing it does is enable the parrot & swords preorder items for use after 1/22. If you have already claimed those items during the preorder period, you can keep them without a Landing Party key. It's just for new characters you make later on.

All boxes were shipped in plenty of time. People are reporting them turning up a couple days early in stores all over the country. I have no idea why Amazon is showing those delivery dates, but that's not anything we control.

laughing_hyena, the problem you're describing isn't widespread, so something unusual must be happening. Please file a bug in our support system and explain what's going on. It sounds like a network issue so you might also check out this KB article:

1 in thread Are you guys going to add collision. [Ask an FLS Developer!]
We do have collision and it does depend on speed, angle, and mass. We don't apply damage to the ships to prevent its use as a griefing tactic, but a small ship can't just stop a large ship, for example.
