How do you pile up subs to act as one?
ReplyDeleteYou can use your left and right arrow keys to switch through ships, to stack the subs keep clicking in the one spot you want them to stack while using your arrow keys to switch through ships. To move them around in a group you just use the same technique , using your arrow keys while clicking in the desired spot.
DeleteI am still have trouble with this. Can you explain it in more detail? Thanks
Deleteha ha ha
Deleteclick up arrow to select all ships. click spot on map. they pile. down arrow will cause all to halt as well. rotating them all to move with left-right arrow is another technique but if you want them uniform much easier that way.
Deletesometimes half of my ships in a fleet look like shadows, is this a browser problem?
ReplyDeleteIt can be caused by your browser but most of the time when kixeye are doing updates and maintenance a lot of little glitches occur such as unable to see your ships , unable to enter a battle etc. Usually a page refresh will fix the minor glitches.
Deletehow do u get in a chat room
Deletehow do you control more than one ship at a time during combat
ReplyDeleteYou can use your left and right arrow keys to switch through ships, to stack the ships keep clicking in the one spot you want them to stack while using your arrow keys to switch through ships. To move them around in a group you just use the same technique , using your arrow keys while clicking in the desired spot.
DeleteHow do i find the Streamlining and the extra cargo hull
ReplyDeleteStreamlining was a reward from an event and cant be obtained again as of yet , most likely it will come out as a normal blueprint in time. the Extra cargo hull was an event reward as well but can now be obtained as a normal blueprint from attacking dracs etc.
DeleteStreamlining can now be found as a blueprint.
DeleteDoes the defense platform gun fire, if your base is attacked, while the platform is upgrading?
ReplyDeleteIf you are building a new weapon on it , it doesnt fire. if you are upgrading the platform itself it does fire and if you are upgrading the same weapon to a higher level it fires but at the same level it was before you started upgrading.
DeleteI am trying to figure out how to post coordinates in Comms..mine don't link to the target.
ReplyDeleteTo find a players coords easily just bookmark the player and you will see the coords in your bookmarks , to type it in comms just type their coords with no spaces . eg . 14654,456
DeleteHow can i move the land in my base to re-design it?
ReplyDeleteTo remove land , place water pieces over the land you need removed. then click on build terrain and place the land where its needed.
DeleteHow do you complete the shockwave mortar
ReplyDeleteYou need to find all pieces of it by attacking Draconian salvages above level 6 and mines above level 8
DeleteHow do you repair your fleet while attacking another?someone was doing this at the same time
ReplyDeleteBefore launching a fleet you can start another on repair.
Deletewhen my base was being attacked and when I went to fire a pinch-rocket it would not launch.
ReplyDeleteYou can't fire a rocket when it's your base being attacked. The most you can do is direct your guns to fire on certain ships. If you have a ship ready outside and you kill their ship you will get some of the resources back.
Deletehow do i block or unblock people in comms...?
ReplyDeletelook in the ? bar of comms
Deleteuhm? could you give me some tips in SW's fleets... im confused with the weapon of SW's
ReplyDeleteThe best weps to use on Sws would be cutlass 2's cutlass 3's, laser 3, boost 2, and eng 2. Thats what i have on mine and they work great.
Deletecan u tell me if i need to build the d51-a or where can i find it once i have all parts i know u need to have intel lab lvl 4 and rapeir missiles 4 which i have got both and i cant find it anywhere to put on ships i cant open the drac wepons when i click on them this is the only bp i have does that make a diffrence
ReplyDeleteIve noticed some fleets are fitted with hailstorm anti morta. Is it a blueprint weapon ?
ReplyDeleteNo its not, it can be found in your weapons lab.
DeleteI have noticed that certain insector hitters have moved their base!! HOW ?
ReplyDeletei would like to know how to put coords of mines or salvs on comms?thanks!!
ReplyDeleteIs it possipility to get a Hovercreaft boat?
ReplyDeleteI can no longer view my objectives on the left side of the screen. How do I get them back?
ReplyDeleteIve been attacked and want to find the coordinates of the person who attacked me. How do I do that? I went to battle log and have the name but thats all?
ReplyDeleteUnder the name it will show his coords, u can either highlight the coords press control+C and then Control+V on comms, or you can post them yourself on comms.
DeleteWhat is the purpose of the Draconian bases? Will I eventually be able to attack them?
ReplyDeleteyes
DeleteDuring the base invasions you will be able to attack drac bases. Those happen once a month and they last 5 days. You will get notice before the invasion begins. The higher the number u attack on the drac bases the more res you get. But, the higher the more difficult it is to attack. When you attack, you can have up to 4 other people do it with you.
ReplyDeletewhen you update you battle the pirate side is real good the lack of updates around Blueprint weapons etc. Regards Leif leif.visholm @ mail.dk
ReplyDeleteI used to have 12 turrents and now I have 11 and the game will not let me build any more. What happened to my turrent as it is nowhere on my base and how do I get it back?
ReplyDeleteGo to the base designer. You may have accidently left the missing turret in storage.
Deletehow do i find out the coordinates of the person who attacked me??
ReplyDeletewhen looking at the lvl of the boat(rank) its says i get a 5% firing bonus how does this play in to the firing? do the missiles launch 5% faster?
ReplyDeleteis there a chart that shows how to gain battle points to level up? for example what do you get if you hit another players base, or a salvage fleet, or a drac fleet/base from an invasion?
ReplyDeleteI have a problem :D
ReplyDeleteI have an objective which is to 'Plunder 25000 Zynthium'
I assume 'Plunder' means to attack a Draconian Fleet and take it's resources right?
My problem is that it seems to be stuck at 24519.
Any ideas?
Or is there a specific way to Plunder. I've attacked much more powerful fleets than me and that still doesn't help :S
Never mind. I've just realized the problem. I have to Plunder 25000 Zynthium all in one go. Silly meeee :)
DeleteI'm stuck on this, too. Is there a certain level of Draconian Fleet that provides the 25k? I mined over 25k but that's not plundering. What am I missing???
DeleteIt was a glitch it happened to me also...
Deletethe fleet your using to plunder with has to be able to hold the 25k res in one battle. otherwise u wont get credit for it. take the cargo cap and divide by 4, thats tipically how much res of each type it will hold.
DeleteIm still stuck on Objective #3 there is no option to start it. Anyone know what I have to do?
Deletewhy are my buildings not showing up im lvl 10 but since the beginning im am not abel to upgrade or anything is it a bug or something?
ReplyDeletehow do you reset your account for battle pirates!?
ReplyDeleteI can't see my buildings either. It all started when I updated Adobe. On my lap-top with the older Adobe I can see them. How can I roll back to older version?
ReplyDeleteBase armor & base specialties: are these applied automatically once researched?
ReplyDeleteHere is an idea. Since there is no sixth vessel in a fleet why dont you guys make the button 6 an select all button? Is that easy or hard because I dont know.
ReplyDeleteWhen I try to refit a predator sub I get a message "The ship cannot be built: Missing research", yet I have all the research done for the weapon, armor, and special I want to use. Why do I get this message and is anyone else having this problem?
ReplyDeletei have the same issue as well. don't know what to do. please help!
Deleteyou need to research the predator sub first
DeleteNext to the predator sub icon in the naval lab (and possibly elsewhere, I haven't checked) is a little spanner (I think it's a spanner) in a black circle. Hovering your mouse over this explains that you first have to research the predator sub specialist before you can use the predator sub. The same goes for the stalker sub. The stuff your trying to equip is fine, the invalid design is actually due to the hull itself. I hope this helps. :)
Deletehow do you delete ships when your dock is full with ships
ReplyDeleteOpen a fleet, click on the ship (not remove), then click scrap
DeleteHow do i restart battle pirates?
ReplyDeleteCan I put together a merc fleet without game creating it for me?
ReplyDeleteDon't think so. The Merc fleet is created by taking into account what ships are available to you at the time.
Deletedo u lose your bubble if u attack fvf?
ReplyDeleteNo, the only way to lose bubble is to attack another base or wait for it to pop on it's own. Attacking another forsaken fleet, draconian outpost, or draconian vessel will not effect the bubble.
DeleteHow many land tiles does a level 5 outpost provide?
ReplyDeletehow i get new bluprint?

DeleteHope that helps
