When you are in the chat and try to move the cursor with your arrow keys, you gun will move with it too.

Controllers don't have a default key for Stamina.

Heh, good luck proving that.

Kind of a cliché one but a lot of people I meet still don't know. You can change the zoom levels of your spyglass using you'd scroll wheel

Press T as spectator

To rejoin your ship as a different class join on someone in your recent list (resume doesn't work)

Going off the path will cause you to hit the warp and fly back to the map fast. Sniping doesn't work from off map and you will hit the warp. Besides a brief risky escape it serves no practical tactical or strategic purpose.

Fjord adventures! Possible in fish and squids quite easily, get a good run up with a Galleon and Pyramidion and you can get to.the map edge, though turning often leads to bad things XD

Actually, it is possible to shoot way off course to the point where your ship can pass whatever the game can show you on the map and you can also end up re entering the map semi-safely from the open area around west if you dont get caught by the warp on the way. Great flanking manouver :P

The city maps used a random city generator to place all the building models, which were then tweaked by hand to the final version.

A lower deck minelauncher on a spire can be used with stamina to get an instant lochnagar hit on its own ship.

Some "veterans" think babysitting the armor with a pipe wrench is a valid strategy on a Squid.
