Manual
I haven't played this game for a while but this is what I remember: When you have a ship, a crew and preferably some cargo you left click the big ship image, select the ship you want and a NESW cursor appears. With this cursor you select the harbour(s) you want to sail to. Then right click the date so that time advances and your ship should appear to the harbour you previously selected.

Nope
Did I not say I've read the manual? ENTIRE, only to find it contains no data on the actual controls?
No, right-clicking is not it. I'm still buffled how so many people (reading this thread) managed to play this. Interestingly enough, I've been searching the net for a solution, and I found only - a youtube video of playin 1869. In the video, apparently, the man has no idea how to move from the very same harbor, so he just drops it and quits the game. It seems like this is a common problem with 1869, and I'm not just being incapable over here. |

OK. Well, I read the manual and played the game (and managed to move between harbours).
Left click the big ship image and you'll see this. http://img188.imageshack.us/img188/1994/1869000.png (Did you manage to get that small ship image to London harbour? If not you have to click the date so that time advances. It takes some time for the ship and crew to get to the harbour). Select your ship and this happens. http://img43.imageshack.us/img43/7713/1869001.png Now select the harbour you want to go to. http://img36.imageshack.us/img36/1904/1869002.png This I didn't remember. Obviously you have to right click the destination harbour to get the arrow cursor back. http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/7486/1869003.png Now, click the date..... http://img32.imageshack.us/img32/1081/1869004.png and your ship arrives to the new harbour (see that small ship?)

You don't see this when you left click the big ship?
http://img188.imageshack.us/img188/1994/1869000.png Do you have that small ship image at you home harbour? |
