There still seems to be confusion about updating a previously bought Sailaway 1 license to Sailaway II Let's be clear once and for all: There is nothing that Sailaway 1 users had in October 2019 that they do not have access to anymore in Sailaway II. Without having to pay anything. This was settled 7 months ago. https://steamcommunity.com/app/552920/discussions/0/1637549649095491847/ It is sad to see that people are still deliberately posting negative reviews because they think they need to pay for an update.

- Fixed some of the issues with special characters øöé (in some cases it will help to type the text again, because it was stored incorrectly in the database) - Added a tiny button next to the Depth indicator to overrule the depth. This will help sailing areas that have incorrect depths. It only works if you're not in a race or challenge and do not have other people on board. It also doesn't work when offline. - The measurement tool in the map didn't always show. - The foils on the Imoca would show water splashing up at the extended position even though they were half or fully retracted. - Badg

A major update of Sailaway is released today. All existing users will automatically update and will take all their boats, groups and team memberships with them. Full release notes can be found here https://sailaway.world/cgi-bin/sailaway.world/post.pl?p=releasenotes The update contains a full rewrite of the multiplayer communication, the physics, the terrain rendering and the handling of trimlines. This makes the simulation better, smoother and more fun. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27578180/e7185e7a2be3ac566570cd5eef04c44e252e0d3a.jpg

Hello Sailaway Pioneers, The Irregular Corporation has been honoured to work alongside Richard over the last few years to help bring his passion of sailing to more people but that journey for us has now come to an end as our existing publishing agreement expires. This might be the end of our journey with Sailaway but Richard has lots of exciting plans to continue to improve Sailaway moving forward so we hope you continue to enjoy your time with Sailaway, Richard and most importantly, sailing. The whole Irregular Corporation team wishes Richard and Sailaway the best for the future and we look f

Greetings Pioneers! We have made some improvements to the World Editor. Here's a list of what's been changed. What's New! Map loads faster now. Land renders faster and has a higher resolution. Improved land textures. Satellite imagery is used to make a difference between the rendering of desert areas and more fertile areas. Accumulated snow is now related to the actual temperature as well as terrain height. OpenStreetMap buildings and objects are constantly repositioned to keep them at the correct position with respect to the camera. OpenStreetMap buidings that are not situated on land are dis

Hello Pioneers! A new update has landed and it's going to turn your world upside down! Have you always wanted to see what the underside of your boat looks like? Well now you can! Your boat can now be tipped over by waves - why not find a storm and find out? Or attempt to not find out. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27578180/3e000895d6799644bde08fbbf8fd8d3c6463b3a6.png New Features Foils, Waterballast and Canting keel can be controlled in the navigation window and has a direct effect on boat heel.

Have You Played? is an endless stream of game retrospectives. One a day, every day, perhaps for all time. Sailaway has some good waves. It has nice rain. It has many ropes. You cannot die in Sailaway. But you can simulate seasickness. (more…)

Hello Pioneers! A new update has docked and as always, we have added a few new additions and fixes. But we have also added one thing that we know sailors have wanted for a very long time... Polars! What's New in 1.1.07! The main menu screen to switch boats now uses the same scrollable interface as other menu options. When selecting a boat, you can choose between team boats and your own boats with a list box. The images of the boats in the main menu are replaced by automatic screenshots of your own boat. All boats in the main menu have an Info button that displays a window with the dimensions o

Hello Pioneers! We have added some great new features, and made some bug fixes. What's New! New internal registration system for race results and challenge results. New ranking pages for races and challenges that include ranks like "Best sailor of the month", "Best sailor per class", "Best heavy weather sailor", etc. The boat now runs aground gradually when the bottom scrapes the ground. It suddenly slows down and tips forward. Waypoints would become corrupted when a new waypoint was added and removed without ever releasing the mouse.

Hey Pioneers! There have been a whole boat load of new fixes and improvements that have gone into both Sailaway and the World Editor. We have also added a new voting system for edits made using the World Editor. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27578180/aee5ad338348f6be938d5a7b6d6725de3b21dec8.jpg Sailaway v1.1.04 Added about 50,000 new buoys and lights from the OpenSeaMap database, including the ones that were registered as a building instead of a singlepoint node. Yellow lights where imported from the OpenSeaMap database as white. The height of the light bea

Hello Pioneers! We have a new update for you all. Plenty of fixes and improvements here for you to jump on board with! When the boat runs aground, it was teleported to some nearby position with sufficient depths that the server located for you. Now the boat keeps track of its own positions and when you press "help me please" after you've run aground, the boat is teleported back in its footsteps. When the camera was in orbit mode, changing the angle to look up from below the waves would not only limit the camera to stay above the water, but also move the camera closer without zooming in.

Hey Pioneers, Just to let you know, we have fixed a couple of issues with the World Editor. When inserting a new WorldEdit, the insert was executed multiple times. When an OSM building was selected to be replaced by a user-created 3D model, the building was not always removed. The select panel, with a list of OSM objects is now ordered on the distance to the placed 3D object. Thanks again for all your support! Happy Sailing, The Sailaway Team https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27578180/7478c34e14107b95f5d98aad5bc39fc61ee66bf9.jpg

Our loyal Pioneers. We are aware that there are a few of you who were experiencing crashes to their game. We have now released a fix for this issue. We would like to take the time to apologise for any inconveniences caused.

Hey Pioneers, Get ready to set sail and create your own exciting new environments. Richard has been hard at work on a new tool for Sailaway that will allow players to help refine the details of the Sailaway world. He wrote about some of these challenges in more detail here: https://www.sailawaysimulator.com/2018/05/04/world-editing/ https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27578180/fa39f60d12c638711f3174c85b2c8fa696af55c9.jpg Today’s update marks the initial release of this World Editing tool which can be downloaded by any current Sailaway owner via this page: https:/
