AfricanWishbone: New version 1.1 uploaded, just replace your launcher folder with the new one and the bug preventing missions from ending should be fixed.

punkamisto: Hey that´s great, thank you. There also seems to exist an issue with some Nations like Spain and the Netherlands barely making any fleets in some maps, I ll try to see in which maps that happens and if its normal.
I have noticed the same across various maps at times. Watching the AI, they seem to prioritize building improvements first, ships second. I am not sure how to change this or if it can be changed, hence I added additional ships to each scenario. I put this down to being an older game, but i'll look into it further.

I am going to release another update and reduce aggression between AI nations, right now its set to max so they seem more interested in fighting than building haha, this should fix some of those issues.

I have just released v1.2 on moddb, please download and update. I have reduced aggression between AI factions, hopefully they are less interested in blowing each other up and more inclined to build a fleet now. Tested on Andaman Sea and definitely noticed a difference.

So my father who have been playing the game for 20 years lol, says that maps are indeed harder but mostly in the beginning, eventually the computer almost stops playing during the game and the rest of the game is easier than it was before. Anyway there´s a map or 2 where this didn´t happen but he didn´t specify which one. Anyway he is a pro so he will always find some issue no matter how it is, he kinda exploits the game already XD. For me the mod is already great so no need to adjust.

Yes I know why this is happening too. Like the player, the AI needs ships to build ships, unfortunately the AI can be very reckless with their ships and sometimes throw them away. When the AI ships are all destroyed, they cease to do anything, I could update objective to capture all ports and trigger a fleet build when the AI fleet is lost, so they should always have one available but that will require testing, i'll look into it.

So I witnesses the AI play Andaman Sea about 10 times and every time was different. Sometimes they build lots of ships, sometimes not, also the nations strength changed between games, there was one where even Portuguese came out of top, so every play through is different. He is playing on the latest version 1.2 download? That did make a bit of difference in my observations.
I also had a look at objectives and can get a fleet to build again once destroyed, unfortunately I can only make this happen once and it requires a lot of work. Once an objective is complete, it expires, just a limitation of the game.

No problem the mod is already great how it is, and yes he is playing on 1.2. The game is old so limitations like those are normal and the pathfind is also abysmal sometimes but that´s how it was in the old games. Thanks a lot for your hard work and looking into things to see if it can be improved. It would be great if the game sold more now thanks to this mod which ads a lot more of replayability to this game.

Thank you, I'm just happy I could get the mod to work. I am looking into adding start of game teams, so. make nations allied on a team. I have been able to successfully test it, but it takes a lot to implement, however, it could make the game harder I guess, for example, you could make all nations allied against you if you wanted to.
Prior to making this mod I tried Port Royale 4, but could not get used to the turn based combat, I thought it was awful, personally. If a studio made a modern Port Royale with Corsairs combat they would have my money for sure!

Adventure Mode Launcher 1.3 update is now available for download of ModDB.
Version 1.3 adds the ability to select teams for each nation. Make nations allies, or enemies, or set yourself the ultimate challenge and pit all AI nations against yourself!

You did a great job AfricanWishbone, thank you very much!
I noticed one playable map from the campaign is not included in your launcher, it is France mission 10, (or England Mission 9 Coasts of Asia (attached picture), I love this map and would be so happy to play it in adventure mode as well. Would you please consider adding that map to the launcher? That would be awesome!

Is there a way to play the England mission 5 map (attached picture), so far only the England nation is present, can we add the other nations to make it playable with the adventure mode?

No problem, had fun creating this (and a fair bit of frustration!). I didn't notice I missed any maps, I'll add them update the mod as soon as I get a chance, been a while since I have looked at the working files.

Hey mate, i know it has been a while but just posting with regards to the latest version of the mod. I have added an option to group nations into teams, so if your dad wants more of a challenge he can attempt 1v4. I am releasing an update soon though (within the next week I am guessing) which includes a few new maps and some bug fixes. One unique map only contains one port (owned by pirates), but each faction starts with a pirate hideout so have to fight for ownership of the single port, and each AI begins with a decent armada so could pose a unique challenge.

Hrymr: Very good job guys, this stuff sounds super cool, especially the Portuguese faction.

"I am watching your career with great interest".
Hey mate, it's been a long slug, but I just released Adventure Mode Launcher version 3.2. This is a massive update from version 1&2. Portugal is now fully playable and included in the in-game user interface (Cities list). I have also added the option to select difficulty, with a hard and very hard mode. I was going mad for a while there but finally managed to achieve what I thought impossible.

AfricanWishbone: Another update.
- Adventure mode launcher working as expected! Just load the launcher, select your scenario then launch the game and select New Adventure.
- All factions are now playable on the Caribbean Adventure map (31) previously this was limited to France.
- Portuguese added as a fully functional AI faction to Caribbean scenario, you cannot purchase spies for them or see their ports in the UI, but otherwise function as intended. I’ll be adding them to ALL adventure mode scenarios.
- I am going through all missions and noting new maps for Adventure Mode, have already found a few I will be adding in.
- Goal is for all factions (except Portuguese) to be playable on ALL adventure mode maps, which includes new previously unused maps, I have counted a dozen maps with all factions playable.
- Also the player starting shops and gold have been adjusted to make each scenario more challenging.
I am estimating I’ll have this done and released by end of April, all of these changes take a long time to complete.
Final release should be a launcher with the new scenario files, no manually swapping out game files etc.

punkamisto: Oh my, that is really great news. Even better then I was expecting :D Can´t wait for that and I know my father will be thrilled if he can play one map with Portugal.
