For the ship directions (port/starboard/aft/bow), would labelling the map like this work for the moment? --Richie2154 (talk) 07:15, 21 October 2019 (GMT)

That works great, yes. The one thing I would add would be an arrow showing where north is, since there are plenty of people who use the cardinal directions rather than ship directions. -- Studenterhue (talk) 07:22, 21 October 2019 (GMT)

for me some mnemonic stuff that helps me remember the ship directions is:

  • NORTH, UP - Bow (i remember this one by thinking of the direction your head faces when you bow - points forwards!)
  • WEST, LEFT - Port (i remember this one by knowing that it has the same amount of letters than left - if i forget, i can just count the letters!)
  • EAST, RIGHT - Starboard (i remember this one because its the most unique sounding name, and also it has more letters than port, so it goes to the direction with more letters which is right)
  • SOUTH, DOWN - Aft (i remember this one by thinking of the direction your ass(aft kinda sounds like ass right) faces when you bow - points backwards!)
