Description

TFC Small Ships

TerraFirmaCraft woods and recipes for Small Ships, plus RTS sailing and broadsides with Hundred Years Warfare.

Made for the Crownfall Kingdoms server, but it works in any pack running the same mods.


Features

Every ship in every TFC wood

All 7 Small Ships hulls (cog, brigg, galley, dhow, drakkar, caravel and galleon) in all 20 TerraFirmaCraft woods. That's 140 ships, each with its own hull texture and item icon to match the TFC planks.

Pick a wood at the Dockyard and it charges you that wood's planks, so a chestnut cog costs chestnut planks and looks like chestnut.

TFC recipes

  • Ships: built at the Dockyard with TFC planks (half the vanilla amount, since TFC planks cost twice as much), burlap sails, wool yarn and wrought iron.
  • Small Ships items: the Dockyard, cannons, chain shot, copper plating, iron scantlings and cotton sails all use TFC materials.
  • Iron nuggets: a wrought iron ingot + a chisel gives 10 iron nuggets. Small Ships uses them for hull repairs, sail patches and cannon balls.
  • Size and weight: ships, cannons and the Dockyard have TFC size and weight.
  • JEI/EMI: the vanilla-wood ships are hidden, since you can't get vanilla planks in TFC.

RTS sailing (Hundred Years Warfare)

  • Boarding: in RTS mode, select your troops and right click a ship. They walk over and climb aboard.
  • Sailing: with a siege engineer aboard, select any troops on the ship and give a move order on the water. The engineer takes the helm and sails her there: full sail out at sea, sail shortened on approach, and a stop when she arrives.
  • Waypoints: hold shift to queue them and steer around headlands.
  • Getting unstuck: if she runs into the shore she backs off, turns and tries again.
  • Beaching: click a point on land to beach her, then use Leave Vehicle to get your troops ashore.
  • Taking over: a player at the helm always overrides the engineer.

Broadsides

  • Firing: a ship with a siege engineer aboard, cannons mounted and round shot in the hold fires on its own at enemies off either side. That means players and armies you're at war with in HYW. The gun elevation is worked out from Small Ships' own shot physics.
  • Turning to fire: when she has no orders, the engineer turns her side-on to the nearest enemy so the guns can bear.
  • Ignored: hostile mobs, so no ammo is wasted on zombies.

Requirements

Install it on both the server and every client.


On the Crownfall server

Crownfall Kingdoms is a MineColonies server built on TerraFirmaCraft. Ores are spread by climate, so no single region has everything, and trade and war are how settlements get what they're missing. This mod brings that onto the water.

  • Ships are mid-game. Most hulls need wrought iron, and on Crownfall iron needs a level 2 Mine in your colony. The dhow is the only ship with no iron in it.
  • The sea isn't a wall. If your neighbour is across the water, load an army onto a cog, sail it over with RTS orders and land it on their beach.
  • Bring an engineer. A ship without a siege engineer aboard won't take RTS orders or fire on its own. Losing your engineer mid-crossing leaves you drifting.
  • Guard the coast. Ships with cannons engage enemies on their own, so a warship anchored off your harbour is a real defence.
  • Repairs cost iron. Patching hulls and sails needs iron nuggets, so a fleet needs a steady supply of wrought iron behind it.

Come see it in action:


Notes

  • Ships sail in straight lines between waypoints. They don't route around land on their own.
  • The RTS sailing hooks into Hundred Years Warfare. A major HYW update can need a new version of this mod.
