Ahoy Pathfinders!

We all know that you all have been anxiously awaiting the next patch and we're almost ready to give it to you. While we make the last few final adjustments, we just want to thank you for your patience and hope to deliver on your expectations with the next update. Until then, we want to give you a small peek into what we've been working so diligently on.

Along with other "bug" fixes, we've made a small change to your friendly neighborhood spider friends that may have you and your crew reaching new heights!

We've also got a few visual additions to spruce up your buildings to make things seem the hostile waters a little more hospitable.

Finally, plodding its way on to the battlefield, we're bringing a new weapon to add to your arsenal that may leave your enemies a little "shell" shocked.

...

Ahoy Pathfinders!

Due to some unfortunate setbacks, we'll be releasing the next update next week. We apologize for the misinformation. Instead, we'll be featuring you, the community, and your amazing creations once again.

Every image or video we receive, showcasing your incredible talents, amazes us and we can’t help but want to share your creativity to the world. If you’d like to see your content featured in a future post, tag us (@sailtheatlas) on twitter or drop your shots in the proper channels on the Atlas Community Discord.

We want to thank you for all your support and we hope you continue to share your adventures with us.

So ‘til next time, may your skies be clear, waters calm, and sails full in whichever way you roam.

While some new content is just on the horizon, this week we have a quality of life update to fix a few of the more troublesome bugs players have been running into on the open seas. We’ve also made a few adjustments regarding the mortar ship and NPC spawns/mechanics. We hope these changes will improve gameplay overall and lessen unwanted/unintended interactions.

As always, we, the Atlas team, appreciate your support and ‘til next time, may your skies be clear, waters calm, and sails full in whichever way you roam.

Released Patch Notes

v527.03

Mortar Ship Updates

Mortar shot direct damage has been reduced


Sail locations have been moved on the ship so they do not block off parts of the ship anymore


Ship points have been reduced from 4 to 3

You can now use medium and small sails instead of large and small sails

Ahoy Pathfinders!

It’s been awhile since we last made landfall but we come bearing a large haul of new goodies and bug fixes, as well as a new ship in tow! Let’s start with the newest member of the fleet, the Mortarship.

We’re finally bringing out the big guns with the Mortarship. With front and rear mortar cannons that deliver swift death from a distance, this ship is a game changer and will make sieging pesky land installments a breeze. Careful though, most ships are too mobile for these mortars so you’ll need to strategize some security for your new weaponry, or you may find your hopes for victory, and your Mortarship, sunk.

This ship and all the other pre-made variants will now be buildable with the new advanced shipyard with new crafting requirements to come.

We’ve also added new blueprints for railing and midship tiles, a revised Home Region map, and squashed many of the bugs that have plagued you...

We hope you've been enjoying your sails on the Tradewinds and the other new changes we've brought into the game. In this post, we were able to take some time with the Dev team and have a few questions answered regarding the future plans of Atlas and what the rest of the year may hold. Again, we are in Early Access and the changes mentioned in the responses are subject to change. Although this may all just be speculation, we wanted to provide some transparency into the upcoming aspirations of the team. Once again, we'd like to thank you for your support and patience.

Along with the Sea Tower Buffs patch, we've also made a slight change to the SGE. Below are the details along with the link to download the latest zip file.

Also after deployment, we made a hotfix to correct an issue with swivel gun placement on some structures. Unfortunately, any swivels lost will not be able to recovered. We apologize for the inconvenience.

SGE Update:

You can now choose to export to jpg or png images in the Project Settings as shown below. The export is set to jpg by default.

Each cell will now contain two images - one for the cell and one for the trade winds.

Here is the new SGE: Click here
