SYNTAX
coastwatch []

The coastwatch command allows coastal sectors to report sightings of ships.

Visibility range is equal to four times the sector efficiency expressed as a decimal times the technology factor; e.g. a 100% efficient harbor with a 50% technology factor can see 2 sectors away. An exception is radar installations, which have a maximum range equal to fourteen times the sector efficiency, (i.e. 3.5 times as far).

A typical usage might be: [##:##] Command : coast #3 ?type=)
