URL Restructure

As usual, i've underestimated the amount of work needed to make this site what I wanted to be (which, by the way - its not even close, yet!) - and the files have all become a little bit disorganised.

To fix that problem, i've reorganised the structure of the site somewhat, theres probably a little bit more work to do on it - but its much better now, with everything in the shipyard being under the /shipyard/ URL, and so on. Not that this affects you, or does it?

Actually - you really shouldn't notice a difference unless you've bookmarked any pages, you might need to update those (for the time being, there are redirects in place from the old page location to the new one for the benefit of search engines but eventually those will disappear). The reason i'm blogging about it however, is just in case you do.

If you do notice a difference - its likely to be in the form of some problem i've created, such as a form not working, or a set of images not loading, etc. If you spot anything that i've managed to break - please leave me a note and i'll fix it quicksmart!

As an aside, i've also put some links to amazon (for UK and US users) in the site; to help support the running costs. At the moment, i'm just testing this out in the banners at the bottom of the page on a random basis (Sometimes you'll get amazon, sometimes you'll get google ads). I'm hoping that showing you some game titles and movies etc will earn some real life doubloons to put toward the running of this site!

Update 27/02/2009: Fixed some links, such as the ship filtering form etc, sorry about that!

  1. Search filters don't seem to work anymore. No matter how I set the filter (happens in both FF and IE7) I get a list back of every ship in the game sorted by size.

    I set it to show all ships between levels 30-40 and sort by total number of cannons restricted by career.

  2. Sorry about that, I missed out a few links; in particular the one you mentioned on the form. Normal service should now be resumed!
