Repair Hammer

The Repair hammer is a simple wood-handled hammer tool that is a standard part of the player's loadout, accessed by pressing 5.

By standing near a damaged part of the ship and holding down M1, you will gradually repair it. The following can be repaired:
 * Holes in the ship's hull. Holes that you need to fix will be indicated by a glowing red patch, while holes already under repair will glow green.
 * Torn Sail which can be accessed by climbing the ropes on the side of the ship.
 * The Ship's Broken Nose, which requires you to repair it three separate times before it will work again.
 * Broken Cannon, which is indicated by the cannon being pulled out and pointed down at an angle, as well as being visibly destroyed.

Repair Hammers have unlimited use, and cannot be used for attacking enemy players. Most broken things will take about 5 seconds to repair depending on the size of the crew.

Repair Hammer is more important than anything else the player carries, as repairing your ship keeps it from sinking and allows it to be in good working order; if nobody on the ship repairs holes or the sail, your ship will be unable to move and sink quickly, leaving you all to drown. A good Blackwake player will frequently have their Repair Hammer out, unless they are working as the Captain.
