Request: See what's on boat WHILE it's fishing.

The Fishing HWE has presented an issue of not being able to identify what's on a boat WHILE it's fishing.

Example: My HWE is currently asking for Swordfish.

I know I dispatched a boat equipped specifically for Swordfish to a particular location, but there are 4 identical Trawlers currently fishing in that location.

I would like to speed that boat up (with Gold) so that I can harvest it without waiting another 6 hours for it to return to the dock on its own, but I have no idea which one (of the 4 boats) is the one specifically equipped for Swordfish.

Sure, I could take a 1-in-4 chance that I'm speeding up the "Right" boat, but the ability to see what each boat is fishing for (while it's fishing) would eliminate guesswork, or having to make a note of each boat by name, and what they're fishing for.

    I take notes on boats that I equip specifically for a certain fish... I agree would be nice to see what a boat has caught before it came in to speed it if needed... but I am good with my notes for now til GGS changes it!

    Yeah, I hadn't been, since I didn't really CARE what was on the boats.  I had no reason to speed them up. :)

    With the HWE though, I'm equipping for certain things on specific boats - cod, herring, tuna, swordfish.. And now that my Oysters are about to run out, I find I need Swordfish - but I have no idea which boat they're on. :tongue: 

    Guess I'm going to have to start (yet another) spreadsheet to help me track what my trawlers are fishing for. :)

    I look forward to seeing your new spreadsheet for us to keep track  of everything!!! :)

    Yes, good idea, seeing what's on the boat.

    I totally agree.  I would like to hover over a boat at a fishing pool and see what kind of fish it is getting since I usually equip boats specifically for a certain type (i.e. a boat for herring and a boat for tuna, etc.).  I hope GGS hears our request for this capability.  Thank you!

    Agree with OP! Although I numbered my boats and take notes (like JVS) from what is on which ship ... it would be much easier when we could see what's on each boat while they are out there doing their job.

    I agree!
