I do not have a problem, but I do have a question regarding ships... I'm going to be gone from the game for only 2 days. I have my account name indicating I will be gone on the specific dates to let people know.

If I close down my ports, does it automatically reset to the longest times (such as 45 mins) when I sign back on? OR does it go to the slightly shorter time as if I have only missed the two days (even though I had turned off the ports)?

I'm considering just going red so I don't lose all the times if it auto-resets, since I will also have my avatar name clearly stating I am away for two days (including the red that I will place on myself). But if it doesn't auto-reset, I'll probably turn off the ports so I don't mess people up.

Thoughts?

Hi smilie224,

Missing a couple of days will only reduce your time by 2 days worth. The shortest time is if you have dispatched 7 ships in 7 days, As you'll have done 5 days, your times will be about 13 to 18 minutes depending on the color of the ship. No point in closing your port for 2 days in my opinion, i would personally just mark myself as unavailable.

The following post shows you all the ship times

Default Unable to Dispatch Ships

After I prepare my ship, I am unable to dispatch it - clicking on "dispatch ship" does not do anything. I am using the Microsoft Edge browser, but I also tried in on an Android phone platform, and couldn't get it to dispatch with that either.

Hi Ranchmom,
I moved your post to the thread about cargo ships.
From what I see your yellow ship that you prepared you took longer than 24 hours to prepare. If that is the case then you can't dispatch it.because it resets to not done. You only have 24 hours exactly to prepare your containers and dispatch the ship. When you go beyond the 24 hours then the ship is no longer loaded and you can't dispatch an empty ship.
