pirate humpback unfix-able hull bug

[fantasie]

I was playing with a friend and we got sandwiched by the pirate humpback and the ground, our only option was to repair the pirate ship and move it, but there were 2 pieces of the nose's hull (top and bottom pieces) that just couldn't be repaired, therefore soft-locking us.

I've come across this too, the 'inner' walls can be repaired but the actual hull seems to extend beyond this so it's sometimes also necessary to repair from the outside too, there may be some shell sections hidden away behind decorative pieces (check the status monitor for location of leaks). Probably didn't translate all that well when it was mirrored. Seems to be slightly pot luck if you get one that is impossible to repair fully, but maybe with some mechanic tinkering, portable pumps, fix-a-foam etc you could float it enough to get it to move.

We were running SO and MD and didn't have access to those things at the time, I even tried blocking all the doors and hatches so the water couldn't get anywhere but that still wasn't enough to move the ship, it could've had something to do with the "high pressure" message that was flashing at the navigational monitor that made us unable to move. Our only option at that point was to restart after like 1 and a half hours of trying to get it moving.

We tried repairing it from every angle, even destroying it and repairing it again with no avail.
This problem is quite situational because I'd imagine the nose of the ship not breaking that often.

I'll have to have a look at the structure in the sub editor, I bet there's all sorts of problems once one digs into it.
