BetterSailing
Makes boats able to sail further upwind
About this mod Author’s original text
An attempt at making the boats sail more like a Laser; I pulled speed points off of to represent the forward force on the ship, which isn't perfect as it should be speed and not force, but it gets the boats to be a bunch more fun.
The wind is also forced to come from either the left or right of the map (eventually) which makes sailing more fun because it doesn't keep shifting to be a head wind
The HUD only turns fully white when sailing at the fastest possible (strongest wind, at a broad reach) but future updates will make it turn white if you're going a reasonable speed. Ideally I'll find a way to add ticklers to the sails and hid the HUD
If i get time, I'm going to try add sailing by the lee
Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.
Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file. In multiplayer, the host and every client need the same mods installed.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
