Small Ships Heraldry

Small Ships Heraldry adds an in-game 3D sail editor for Small Ships. Patterns are painted directly on the ship model, so you can see how every pixel follows the sail geometry before using any paper. The editor supports the Cog, Brigg, Galley, and Drakkar, with separate drafts for each ship type and all five sail stages.

Designing a pattern

Craft and place a Heraldry Table to begin. Paint on the sails with freehand strokes, straight lines, fills, symmetry, and precise colour controls.

Individual sail parts can be selected, hidden, or isolated when working on larger ships. Pixel-aligned selections can be copied, cut, moved, and pasted between sail stages, while the preview can be rotated, panned, and zoomed at any time.

Saving and sharing

Drafts can be stored in the local pattern library and reused in any world or server. Patterns are saved as .sshpattern files and can be shared or imported by dragging them into the editor.

Printing and applying

Place paper in the Heraldry Table to print the finished design. Sneak-use the resulting pattern on a matching ship to install or replace its heraldry.

Replacing heraldry returns the previous pattern. Sneak-use shears to remove a pattern without recovering it.

To duplicate a printed pattern, place it in the centre of a crafting table and surround it with eight sheets of paper.
