Destroyers are medium-sized warships primarily used for anti-submarine warfare. Their depth charges allow them to destroy nearby submarines, and they can activate countermeasures to disarm and sink incoming torpedoes. Destroyers can also fire torpedoes themselves.
¶ Controls
More information: Direct Control - Naval Mode
Destroyers will always cruise in the direction of their "front". If you try to cruise sideways, your Destroyer will move diagonally in that direction instead.
The "front" of the Destroyer is determined in two ways.
- If your craft has a Cruise sign, the "front" is opposite to the direction that the sign is facing.
- If your craft has no or multiple Cruise signs, the "front" is the direction you are looking at when piloting the craft.
Destroyers use the Naval Direct Control mode. Direct Control mode is superior to manual movement during combat.

¶ Piloting
To pilot a Destroyer, you may use the command /pilot Destroyer while standing on an eligible Destroyer. Alternatively, you may right click a sign on the craft that has Destroyer written on the first line.
Piloting a Destroyer increases your render distance to 10 chunks maximum, until you release the craft.
¶ Fuel
This craft is fueled by Coal, Charcoal, Blocks of Coal, and Blocks of Charcoal placed inside an on-board Furnace.
