A build is one published version of the game's files on a branch. Steam assigns a new build ID every time the developer pushes an update, so this list is the update history of the app. The files inside a build (depot manifests) are only readable with an account that owns the game, which SteamRaw does not have yet, so build contents are not shown.

They say I'm not much of a chef, but guys...I've been cooking.Basic mod support is hereHigh Seas, High Profits! is the textbook example of a game that would work great with mods. The reality is, you guys are asking for soooo many features that fit your play style (but sometimes they don't fit the original game) that mods are realistically the only way we'll be able to get things working.Some members of the community have already been doing mods. It's been pretty hard on them since there isn't much in the game to help them achieve a cohesive look, or even harder: add their own models to the gam

Hey traders! It's been a loooong time since I haven't updated you guys on what's cooking. But fear not - I have been cooking!LocalizationBy FAR the most requested feature the game's ever had was for localization. People want to play in their native language. I get it. Today I'm happy to announce the release of the first localized version, featuring german, french, spanish and russian. The localization IS NOT PERFECT. I will be completely transparent in admiting this first version is created using large language models. You will see however it's quite a bit nicer than using google translate! Ov

Honeymoon update! You may have noticed I've been unusually busy these past few days. It's because I got married! Planning everything was almost as stressful as releasing a game :D I'm leaving on my honeymoon for a week, but I wanted to leave you with a little gift! (As I typically do before every vacation). Hopefully this time it won't introduce game breaking bugs :) There is now a new custom map, the Mediterranean! It has 2 different versions, with 21 and 43 cities! The 21 version should feel a bit more like the original game, while the 43 is a bit more jumbo sized, waiting for you guys to bu
