Hello all,
Ive been a long time lurker as I purchased the game roughly when it was new. I played on and off as time went on, but I was never really able to get too far. Recently I took the time to go through the help file and I lurked a bit harder on this forum for tips.
Now that I am getting deeper into the game I have a few questions.
I feel awards are going back to locked off after a captain dies but some do not. Is this supposed to happen?
Also, Is there a screen that explains what conflicts are going on at the moment? I thought I saw that somewhere.
Im sure Ill have more questions as time progresses.
Thanks!

Welcome to the forum! I feel awards are going back to locked off after a captain dies but some do not. Is this supposed to happen? That is not supposed to happen. We seem to have a bug here, Cory Trese ! Also, Is there a screen that explains what conflicts are going on at the moment? I thought I saw that somewhere. I can't think of a thread listing that information off the top of my head. If there is any conflicts you are confused about we can answer those questions here. |

Unlocks vs. Awards.
Unlocks are features, you get from having an Award at a certain difficulty.
Awards are tied to a Captain, and if correct difficulty, can generate Unlock.

If there is any conflicts you are confused about we can answer those questions here. Conflicts are listed under Status--Cargo--Conflicts. I misunderstood what kchlipala was asking for. I thought he was looking for information on conflict types. Officer Genious is right. |

Everytime my caption dies I rename him. Does that mean since the unlock is tied to that captain that it will not be unlocked for my new captain? |

But in order to UNLOCK the achievements, you need to obtain them on CERTAIN difficulty or higher. For example you can achieve the Birthright on any difficulty... But in order to get the unlock, you have to achieve it on IMPOSSIBLE difficulty. Just emphasising the important things by the capitalisation. |

Yes, you can get the award on any difficulty. That award allows you to use that feature for that captain, but no other captains, unless you achieve the award in a difficulty setting that's at least as hard as the difficulty indicated in the unlock. Once you do that, the feature can be used for all other captains.
