What is the wind dependency of a ship?

0

The wind dependency is the % of the ships propulsion that is dependent on the wind. Some ships (like Galleys and Xebecs) can be rowed, and thus have a low wind dependency. This is noticed in the effect of the wind speed on the speed of your ship. Galleys for example go only a little bit faster in a storm than they would in a calm because their wind dependency is very low.
