It took me until this year to realize the port and starboard referred to what the ship was touching when docked. The left side goes to the port, the other side faces the stars.

I felt so dumb that I had completed Black Flag 3 times and never picked up on this.

Why would the stars only be to the right? Would the ship start tilting when you haul all the loot into port?

There is no stars over land, because gravity makes them all fall down, so they know to avoid it
