Boarding Permission

One new feature to the game is a captain can now decide who gets to board their ship.

When sailing, note the dinghy icon in the upper-left corner. Click on it to show the Boarding Permissions.

Normally, the settings default to Crew and Friends. So, a member of the pirate's crew or their friends can board the ship at any time. Also, options are available for Guild and Public.

When set to Public, any pirate looking for a ship to board may pop up on your deck. Anyone not in your crew that has boarded will have to be individually crewed to increase your Crew Bonus. By deselecting all of the options, no other pirate can board your ship other than those already on.

You can change the permission level at any time.


 * Note - In Ship PvP, the captain can also boot off a crewman they want to remove.
