The "FocusFire" skill was added to ships.
The "FocusFire" skill was added to ships.
Firing cannons is currently intuitive to use, yet it's difficult to precisely hit targets that are far away. The FocusFire system was introduced to make it easier and more precise when aiming at targets.
Witness the precision of the new system, even as you cut through the rough waves.
Your view will completely change once you switch to FocusFire mode, and this will allow you to be more precise.
In FocusFire mode, you can quickly shoot cannons to targets far away since you do not have to hold in the mouse buttons.
You can use the FocusFire mode while using other sailing skills, except the Ram skill.
You can press Q or E to switch between aiming left and right for the FocusFire mode.
Due to this, the Ram skill's hotkey was changed from the Q key to the F key.

The portside and starboard cannons will now have separate cooldown times for reloading cannons on a ship.
This means that you can now fire cannons from the other side, if either the portside or starboard is on a cooldown.
You can now fire simultaneously from the portside and starboard by clicking on the LMB and RMB at the same time while on default firing mode.
However, you can only fire from one side at a time while in FocusFire mode.
You can now get off the ship during the cooldown for reloading cannons.
