Always try CTRL F5 first to refresh the page. Browsers save some files for more efficient use of the Internet but sometimes they are outdated and no longer compatible with other newer files.

CTRL F5 page refresh fixes that. If not please post a screenshot. Everything should work as per normal.

Can you post a screenshot please? Also please tell me the operating system and browser you are using.

Yeah ctrl f5 first to refresh the page but if it still happens I need a whole lot more information.  When does it disappear exactly? Does it even appear? What browser and Operating system? Can you see the port in Sydney or does the map remain zoomed put when you load the page. Do other ships work?

Oops times two. I guess you don't like ghost ships much.

 I deleted an old obsolete folder on the server but the Stena Hollandica ship file still referred to some images in it.
All good now.

And yes. Use https (You will loose all your progress though :-( ). I tried where possible to push everyone onto https but I am having trouble to get the server redirect settings to catch all cases.

If you are technically savy and then you can go into the localStorage of your browser and backup and restore your progress data manually.

I think things get too easy when the line is also in satellite mode. For now, chart plotting features are only in map mode while some ships won't even have a course predict line.

Yes very nice. That makes me think. Later when I have time I will look into this. I could add a camera button that will bring up photos of the location your ship is at using either panoramio or google

Thanks Captain, I had a crew dredge the approach. Should be deep enough now.

You're good to resume your trip.

Yeah man, thanks for the effort you put into the pictures. I like your suggestions. Sounds like you know a thing or two about ships.

Here's the cool thing, all of your suggestions are possible today and I fully intend to make more realistic ship control panels. Or in fact, I am keen to find people such as yourself able and keen to build their own ships.

Right now I am feeling my way through this and I don't want to scare away potential players with too many controls or abbreviations they don't understand.
for example: For you and I "SOG" Speed over Ground is perfectly sensible but your average user won't know what that is.

The ships2career game engine is fully parametric and Scenarios, ship physics and control panels can be fully customized and attached to any of the internal simulation parameters right down to fuel flow per engine. Obviously such realistic panels will require much more space and at that stage we should be looking at a multi screen layout.

Maybe a ships2career Pro version.
