Issues unresolved[edit]
Frozen ship bug[edit]
Sometimes the game will completely freeze, and the ships and timer will also freeze (although it is still possible to interact with the towns.[1]
Talking to the Architect in town and accessing the Build grid seems to unfreeze time, though the bug might still recur.
Missing Building Name In Town[edit]
When a player reaches a certain rank, building names over buildings disappear.
Shipyard Bug[edit]
When a shipyard has more than 1 ship to offer, it frequently auto-selects the 1st ship. Players could accidentally buy the wrong ship if they are not clicking the buy button fast enough.
Reputation Bug[edit]
On version 1.1.2 quests aren't giving any reputation increase.
Issues fixed[edit]
Autosave[edit]
Reportedly, loading a game will not allow saves to be made automatically.[2]
This can be fixed by starting a new game, and then loading the save game again.[3] [4]
Autosave timer can also be adjusted by going into the Options.cfg in %APPDATA%\Kalypsomedia\Port Royale 3\
There is a section where one can adjust the number of seconds between autosaves:
[Autosave] Timer = 480
