wind was the main way to sail back in these days. apart from having ores to row with. having the wind mechanic allows sailing to have a more realistic feel to it.

i need to look this up but the wind is not really random. theres a chart floating out there some where that shows what dicrection the wind blows at a said time of the day (in game day).

if you dont want to do that heres this.
