With seven AI-teammates there is a lot of traffic on the world map. And I quite often see the video with the sinking container vessel. Unfortunately there is no further information displayed. Each time I check my list of vessels whether my fleet is affected.

It would be nice to learn more about a sad event like this, e.g.:
- What company lost a ship?
- Name and type of ship
- Why did the ship sink?
- Any survivors?
- Amount of loss (ship, cargo)?

And in the background someone rings the bell (like it is common practice at Lloyd's London when a ship is lost).

- * - * - * -

Mit sieben KI-Mitspielern gibt es viel Verkehr auf der Weltkarte. Und ich sehe recht oft das Video mit dem sinkenden Containerschiff. Jedesmal kontrolliere ich meine Schiffsliste, ob meine Flotte betroffen ist.

Es wäre schön, mehr über ein trauriges Ereignis wie dieses zu erfahren, z.B.:
- Welche Reederei hat ein Schiff verloren?
- Name und Typ des Schiffes
- Warum ist das Schiff gesunken?
- Gibt es Überlebende?
- Schadenshöhe (Schiff, Ladung)?

Und im Hintergund läutet jemand die Glocke (wie es bei Lloyds London üblich ist, wenn ein Schiff verloren gegangen ist).

RedEvil,

this is the first game that I see this pop up at all. Before I played only with 2 or 3 opponents - never seen a video.

Quote:
In the window-mode you get only a pop-up if your ship was sunk.

Is this the way it should be?
In the actual game I've never lost a ship in now 5 (game)years, but this video popped up at least ten times.

I will continue in full screen mode and watch the messages in the left column.

It is a tragedy !
Global Song 14
has vanished.
Only 10 brave seamen have been
saved. Pitiful.
Most disappointing.

Your ship Global Song 14 was in an
appalling condition !
Shall we call this lack of
leadership - a catastrophe ?


This information cannot be seen in window mode. The company concerned is missing. And the date lacks a little translation.
