Purchased Trinkets

  • Anyone else having an issue where purchased trinkets are not able to be placed on any spit on any ship type? Certain trinkets show up fine, but two specific items (fragment of untarnished brimstone and bucket of training swords) do not show up to be placed anywhere.

    I assume it’s a bug? Or am I really that dense😂

  • @silas54 Ahoy matey!

    Have you tried placing them on the spots on the ground?

    On a sloop there's places next to the stove and customization chests.

    Apparently I am that dense😂

    Thanks! Though on the sloop I did not find a spot next to the stove. Just next to the chests.

  • Same, for some reason only 3 trinkets show but I've purchased 9. When I go to the Shipwright trinket shop it shows all 9, but when I check the trinket box in the ship there are only 3. Is this a bug?

  • Every trinket cannot be placed in any given spot. Some can be placed on the ground and on shelves, some can only be placed on the ground and some can only be places on the walls. Depending on the emplacement, the prompt only show you the trinkets that can be placed on the specific spot.

  • It's strange, bc I purchased two different paintings for the walls, but it will only let me place one of the two paintings. I almost feel like I wasted my gold at this point lol 😅🥲 (I have a sloop btw, so please let me know if only certain paintings can go on the walls of a sloop. It didn't specify in-game 🤔)

  • Not every trinket "fits" in every location, for lack of a better term.

    For the wall-mounted trinkets, there are two types of spots best described by using the layout familiar to people who use printers: "Portrait" spots (taller than they are wide) and "Landscape" spots (wider than they are tall).

    "Portrait" spots on your boats fit both sizes of trinkets and you should have the entire set of ones you've purchased or earned available to choose from to place in those spots.

    "Landscape" spots typically do not have a lot of vertical room on the wall (for example, the spot over the shelf opposite of the armory and ammo box on a sloop). You can only fit the "Landscape" sized wall trinkets in spots like that and the taller trinkets are not available to choose from for those spots.

    Floor- or shelf-mounted trinkets are roughly the same. Some are larger, like the potted plants or the 'Forgotten Bosun' (my personal favorite) and can only be placed on a trinket spot on the floor of a room, while the smaller ones can be placed on shelves AND floors.

    If a trinket is too large to fit in the spot you're trying to place it in, it won't appear in the 'trinket box' as an option for you to select even if you have purchased or earned it.

  • @thegrimpreacher Ohh! Okay. Maybe the portrait painting I bought is too big to fit anywhere on my sloop? Might need to invest in a brig or galleon someday to hang it. 😅💯
    Edit: I'm not sure if I specified, but the painting won't even show up in my inventory. I'll have to check at the shipwright to make sure I actually purchased it.
