  • Re: Day/Night Changes
    Board » General Discussion
    There seems to be a lot of dissatisfaction aimed at the developers for giving us the day/night mode.

    It should be remembered that this feature came about because some players asked for it. The developers did not suck the idea out of thin air.

    Give them a break folks, they are doing their best and need all of our support.

  • Feature request for Flash Client
    Board » Technical Support
    Hi Guys, keep up the good work, this toy is great.

    Any chance of a tickbox or something to hide tracks? (Flash Client)

    I have found that when the winds are very light and your screen is cris-crossed with the tracks of other boats, it is very difficult to get a clear view of what the winds are doing. Pleeeeease.

    Cheers

    Hi Kalle

    ANother bit to add to this bug/feature.

    In Firefox, even though all the boats move as they should, the distance and bearing information that appears in blue next to you pointer appears to be measured from the position your boat was when you last refreshed, not from where your boat currently is.

    Cheers

    Got firefox problem sorted. I was connecting to http://sailonline.org/windy/run/103/#. Client would open but no data. As soo as I chnaged URL to http://www.sailonline.org/windy/run/103/# (Added www.) then data came and all OK.

    AND, interesting, all boats are updated and move correctly every minute. So looks like a problem when running in IE7.

    Cheers

    Thanks Kalle.

    It def does not seem to move other boats. I have left my screen idle for 10 mins. Please see teh result in teh atatched.

    One other issue that is prob related also, a Grey version of my boat if left behind while the Pink version hops forward. Is this correct?

    BTW, running IE7 on XP and Flash 9,0,124,0

    See the attached screenshot of what I mean.

    Oddly enough, If I open a new tab withing the same IE7 browser session, it forces an update and all boats, including my grey version, hop to the correct place.

    I have tried Firefox to see if same issue there but so far I cannot get the Flash client to run properly on there. Opens up but no data downloaded.

    Cheers

    HI Guys

    I notice that when running the flash client, my boat moves in near-real-time. Other boats do not move though.

    Is this correct?

    Cheers

  • DC's gone missing
    Board » Technical Support
    Hi Guys. Dont't know if it was the recent "action" by Kalle, but I notice that my Start DC's which I set a few days back have gone AWOL. I have reset them now if if it was the "Archiving" of the race that caused it, you may have some unhappy peeps tomorrow.

    Cheers

Melbourne to Osaka 2023
Welcome to Melbourne for Sailonline's alternative version of the Melbourne to Osaka Double Handed Yacht Race - a 5000 nautical miler. This year again we're racing the RP-66, but the route is unlimited what comes to waypoints. Because the IRL version does not run this year, we took the freedom to make our own route!
It could be a long race, east or west, and of course some doldrums to negotiate!

Sinbad Seeks Spices 2023
Having surveyed Arabia, Sinbad Al-SOL’er next invites you to race him on his second of seven epic voyages to every corner of the Indian Ocean and beyond, this time to seek spices in Zanzibar, departing from Xaafun, a trading post on the tip of the Horn of Africa since the days of the Mycenaeans and on through Roman times to the Nights of 1,001 of AL-Sail’or, Al-SOL’er’s illustrious ancestor. SOLing by the sun and the stars, aka seat-of-the-pants, the voyage will take you east as far as Praslin island, south as far as Anjouan, to Zanzibar’s Unguja for all things spices, but only back as far as Mogidishu – another exhausting 3000nm adventure, this time in Reichel/Pugh 66s.
