I'd like to know the answer to this, too!!

And does an unattended ship stay in that neighbor's port for one day, or for the entire time before it's due??

Hi bayoubes,
I would love to answer your question definatively, but I have not loaded any ships in my port yet. I can say that I don't think you do. They only way you get any goods is to buy a ship yourself and send it out.

so far i'm not having any luck with the ships my first ship is stuck on the first port....my second one is stuck on the first port on someone who isn't even on my friend list, so is not my neighbor....so i will wait patiently for the developers to fix this problem....i really enjoy the game.....

just want to add... the person who buys the ship, spends up to 10 hours of their time preparing the containers ( does ALL THE HARD WORK) reaps the reward of their labor when the ship returns, hopefully after a successful voyage.. Now, the people who get a ship in their port to load, spend about 5 seconds loading it to send it on.. isn't helping your neighbor a big enough reward for so little effort,

ducking my head now to avoid the rocks thrown.. LOL

It's a nice sentiment.

However, personally - just thinking in terms of how to motivate people to keep the game going smoothly - I'd like to see those who help get something "in addition" to the warm, fuzzies of helping a neighbor.

I just had this happen. It's a bit disconcerting. How do I find out if I'm someone's neighbor but they're not mine? I could add them if I knew - but I don't know how to get that info.

At least I finally got to help someone. I guess! LOL

Ok, time to for me to weigh in. First of all, to all the Developers. Awesome job on the ships. Its great to have a challenge.

Today it took me about 8 hrs to get 10 containers ready. I would start a container, leave the computer, come back later and click o the next container. Total time I spent getting my first ship out to sea was about 10 minutes. NOT 10 hrs like a lot of people are saying it takes them.

As far as a ship sitting at a neighbors port and that nrighbor not working it? Drop that neighbor if its not working for you. If i have a neighbor who work my crops and doesn't move my ship, then i have a choice to make.
