Airship Guide

I've heard reports of it coming from 15 too.

Youve been saying "Ive heard" a lot.

First trip to sector 11 for us and the airship have discovered sector 13.
But we still need the sector 7...

By the way, if we unlock sector 14 before sector 8, do you think we will be able to send another airship ?

Favor is most likely linked to the rating of the performance.

Which means it could be tied into sector discovery. Not sure though, would need some to test.. but not sure how.

I've heard that before.

Quick spot analysis for new sector discovery (overall rating/rating in relevant sector):


SC06: B/substandard, A/satisfactory
SC07: B/decent, C/satisfactory
SC08: A/substandard, A/satisfactory
SC09: B/abysmal
SC10: S/abysmal, C/satisfactory
SC11: S/decent, C/abysmal
SC13: A/satisfactory, C/substandard
SC14: B/satisfactory
SC15: A/satisfactory
SC16: B/substandard, C/satisfactory

I'm not seeing a strong tie between performance and discovery. I see runs where a ship performs better and does not find a new sector, and then tries again, does worse, and does find the sector.

I just did an analysis of favor vs sector rating. I'm not very good at interpreting the results of those, especially with our limited data (only a few hundred data points, nowhere near the ~10,000 we'd need for a decent analysis), but here's what I'm seeing: Overall, the chance of getting a rating is as follows: 38% abysmal, 29% substandard, 29% satisfactory, 4% decent, 0% outstanding. Compared to this average, a Favor rating of 70 gives the following percentages: 51%, 26%, 22%, 2%, 0%. With a Favor rating of 90, we're getting so far: 26%, 33%, 37%, 5%, 0%. That's a pretty noticeable difference. However, correlation does not imply causation.

Can confirm that 19th sector is opened from 15th sector. Forecastle, Hull - Invincible II, rigging - enterprise, aftcastle - Invincible.
15-13-11. I'll post screenshot with log later

P.S. Still no sign of 14th sector, sigh

[UnwelcomePresence]

I wasn't sure if someone had listed all the airship types yet

[Enseric]

19th sector unlocked. Adding screenshot as promised.
P.S. Forgot to take screenshot of map. One of my ships will return in like 10 hours and i will add new screen.

Our airship also discovered 19 on its first trip to 15. (Now if it would just be nice enough on one of these trips to 11 to discover 14 >< ).
