I do hope for some changes in how the ships work someday. I have decided to turn mine off indefinitely unless they get a make over. It's very irritating that we can't take non shippers off our itinerary, that # 30 can't be skipped, and that we're allowed to replace our itinerary so many times before we're stuck with whoever is on it (that can be a nightmare!). I've tried using last itinerary...hahaha i will never make THAT mistake again. Anyway, I want to turn my computer off when I go to bed but I have to leave it on to check my stupid ships through out the night. I hate the ships with a passion and will never do them again unless they become, better like the trains, for example. The trains are no problem.

Hi Wiggles,
I moved your post to theHelp & Support thread about the cargo ships to answer you.
You can change your itinerary in the log book and set it to one that works for you. When you are preparing your containers for dispatching your ship for the day, you can replace up to 10 ports. You can also move any of them around that you need to during this time. That means in 3 days time you can replace your entire log book.
If you replace the first ten on day one and get them where you want them in the log book, finish loading your containers and dispatch your ship. I would suggest that at least one of the onesa you replace or move be someone you know plays daily and you know will be able to do your ships in the 30 position, so your ship does not get stuck for days.
When you start preparing your next ship on the second day, click on the Reuse Last Itinerary in the Log book tab. That will show you exactly the log book you set up the day before. Then you replace and move an additional 10 to get them where you want them.
Then when you start the 3rd day's ship you complete replacing any you have left that you think you need to. And every day after when you start your next ship preparation you click on the Reuse Last Itinirary. That way you keep the same group for your ports.
You should not have to leave your computer on to check on your ships at night. Once you get 7 ships in a row dispatched then the times for preparation will be short enough that it will only take a short time to prepare and dispatch them.
If you want to make a suggestion for changing how the ships work please post it in the Suggestions section and not in the General Feedback section.You can not start a new thread in that section, but you can reply to an existing thread that fits your suggestion. Before you do though I hope you try what I have listed above to get your ships working properly.
