Hi, new to widelands and just learning the game going through the campaigns. How do you move ships around? Clicking on them shows an empty dialogue box and I can't figure out how to give them commands. Any help appreciated.

Hi, so far you can control ships only if you start an expedition in a port. For expedition ships there are command buttons.

Hi littlekatana and welcome to the forums face-smile.png

I'd advise you to play the tutorials first. The third tutorial explains in detail how ships, ports, and ferries work.
