I was so excited to see the new cargo ship tools, and I went out and bought them. But you know clicking 11 times per ship in the dock is nothing compared to devoting upwards of 10 hours to the game in order to load one ship. These tools should work at home as well as they work on foreign soil.

Hi AnnaWalls,
You can lower that amount of time required to prepare the containers, by dispatching a ship each day. The more ships you have dispatched in a 7 day period the lower the time for preparing each container. The following information is in the Game Guide chapter 32 about the ships:

When I have to stop my ships for a while because I am not able to be on for vacation or other reasons, then when I start up again I prepare 1 or 2 containers for each ship each day instead of preparing all 10. Then I send them out with the small number of containers until I have sent out enough ships to get the times back down to workable amounts.

Hi MOM GLENDA

I moved your post to Discussions about cargo ships in General Feedback.

Think many of us have to redo our logbook, some farmers have stopped playing after the migration waiting to have all features back and others maybe forgot about the Ships, how they work and how to close their ports if they dont want to do them.

You may continue trying till you have a list that likes you, you could ask your neighbors if they are doing ships and have an idea how many are working them.

The time frame to load and dispatch your ship needs to be increased from 1 day to 1.5 - 2 days

untill then im quitting sending ships out been trying for 4 days to get 1 ship out but keep missing the expiry

Hi al_bundy

I moved your post to Discussions about Cargo ships thread.

Maybe you dont have enough time to spend on the game waiting for all containers to be loaded.
You can lower the amount of time required to prepare the containers, by dispatching a ship each day but only with the amount of containers you can load, no matter if they are only one. The more ships you have dispatched in a 7 day period the lower the time for preparing each container.
