Yes the ships no longer drift but sail in a zig zag pattern.
I hate this, as I have taken a good deal of time to mark a set of charts to and from the places I sail most.
( server lines, Floating Dock, Serpent pillars', etc.) and my home port.
Now, they no longer work, as I am always running aground or bumping into islands or shallow water.
It is also very hard to mark new maps unless you just stick to deep water and make wide detours around any land mass.
I sure hope they fix this as I like my tiller man to sail the shortest course between points while I fish.
And some of my charts have been painstakingly worked out to dodge between islands and just barely make sure I am still fishing in deep water.
