This is my sailing experience every time I play Valheim. I’m starting to believe the devs put in an RNG variable that makes the wind constantly fight you for certain steam IDs or something.

    Some further evidence from playing just now. My friend was sailing the ship and the wind was at our backs, he had to take a phone call so I took over and the moment I sat down the wind abruptly spun around 180 degrees and is blowing in my face. Aaaaaaaaaa

      Yep, i’m pretty sure they programmed it that way on purpose just to make one of the powers you get later seem more useful.

      … however after many hours in the game I started just using mod commands to make the wind go whatever direction I wanted, just like in Windwaker.
