Ahoy Shipwrights!
Accessing the most important elements of your job requires a properly designed UI. In this devblog, we will show off the design and elements of the screens you will be seeing quite often.
[b]Your Inventory.[/b]

The limited amount of items you can carry on you. The additional slots will open as you progress through the game. You can buy more space with all the cash this player clearly does not have. You can sort through items by categories or just drop them randomly for that extra bit of chaos.
[b]Tool Wheel.[/b]

The quickest way to access your tools. You decide which items to take with you on that specific occasion. This way, in the heat of the moment, when you see the perfect tree, you don’t have to look for a saw in the depths of your inventory. Additional information will help you with using your tools.
[b]The Stockroom.[/b]

All your tools and materials will be stored in the stockroom. Similarly to the inventory, you can access different categories separately. Organising your items is optional, but keep in mind you may play with others. You can buy additional storage space as you collect materials and eventually grow out of this stockroom’s capacity.
[b]Ship selection screen.[/b]

Here you can access all ships available to you, along with brief descriptions and their stats. As you progress through the game, new ships will unlock and they will become more magnificent and complex. Each ship’s card will show its class, speed, the number of crew members needed to operate it, as well as the approximate amount of cargo the ship can carry.
[b]Ship customisation screen.[/b]

Many elements on your ship can be customised. To be able to pick and choose, you need to buy the item first, otherwise, it will be locked on your customisation screen. Each element will have its stats, which among other things will inform you of their rarity and value. This way you can decide whether you build your ship as efficiently as possible or maybe just go for stylistic points.
On top of all this, we have more things coming soon! So as the devs continue their work, keep your excitement contained or share it with us on your community discord!
