Still waiting... Am I doing it wrong? Maybe not close enough. To be sure you can click on the ship and set destination to your port. When the ship reaches this port (if it works) you might get a message. If it doesn't work consider to upload the savegame. Wanted to save the world, then I got widetracked Top Quote

I got the message about it arriving. It also wasn't loading before the trip just after it had been refitted. I don't have spare soldiers (as always my economy is garbage) but I am sure that available soldiers were getting to sentries that needed them and even to a second port I'd set to have a garrison of 20 (2 had arrived there while none had gone onto the warship).

It will then still take a while to fill up since you economy severely lacks soldiers. Garrisoned soldiers stay in their port or HQ and are not available for warships or militarysites. Top Quote

So what you're saying is that I need to wait a really long time. Sigh. I guess I can force soldiers into it by stopping new sentry construction and closing the training centres. -- To Boldly Go Where No Man Has Gone Before Top Quote

Diverted all soldiers to warship and set it to prefer none and I got a few on board. Whew. Now to find something to invade, heh heh heh... -- To Boldly Go Where No Man Has Gone Before Top Quote
