I dont want to call out company names but...we had a speed schrooner with 10% weight chasing down a battle brig with armour and ass cannons etc. It was still outspeeding us. All 3 of their sails were crap common bps. Ours are high acceleration sails 120+%

How is it possible they are outrunning us everytime. We noticed its only this company that has these kind of brigs

Yeah, the only time I've seen devs actually care about an exploit is right after its been described in detail in public.

The majority of exploits we've fixed go under the radar in terms of the general playerbase and are called to our attention due to players reaching out myself or Jat via DM.

To those wondering. This is a exploit cstg and them are using. In order to to this bug.

Have a group of people each holding a sail. Do a countdown and have each person place a sail at the same spot. If done right you can have 2 sails in the spot of one glitched without the ship sail unit points. I figured its better to post how to do it instead of reporting it because devs reads reddit more than their support tickets.

This is broken when done on schrooners...you can go 35+ knots. Obviously we did it just to test we are not using the exploit ourself but it is broken.

Thanks for the repro steps, we're looking into this at the moment. (I don't read Reddit more than other things. This was called to my attention yesterday via Discord but those reporting it weren't sure of the repro so it has taken a little time to investigate. ;) )
