2010-05-14 09:46:41 - Map width of new races
Ahoi SOL-Gods!

I don't know if this is the right place,but since it's somehow technical I post here:

Do you think it's possible to limit the width of the map of new games?I'm using a display with 1024x768 pixels,and in some races the map seems to be wider,so if I want to be able to read chat tab I have to move the view this far right,that left side control buttons hardly stick out.This way I can't read the name of boats under the crosshair not at all anymore...
In the ongoing transat race,browser width is optimal,the japaneese race is about 50-100 pixels too wide.For me a maximum browserwidth of 1000px is great,cause my internet connection is a "thin" one and I like to monitor network flow to catch interuptions...
I think I won't be the only one with a "old fashioned" computer setup so I guess there are more then just me dealing with this issue.
And I have to report another (for me) realy minor issue:
When I want to watch race standings via Races/View Leaderboard I dont see the ranking in firefox browsers at all,wheras the list displays well in the grafic mode of links2 browser.I use Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de; rv:1.9.1.9) Gecko/20100414 firefox/3.0.8 (like Firefox/3.5.9),and firefox 3.6,both the same result.
Screenshots or further information easy possible on request.

Thanks in advance,fair winds and may summertime soon be with you,Roland,Captain of the virtual raft stoertebaeker

Chinook Salmon - Canada to Andreanovs


A year after spawning in the upper reaches of the rivers of British Columbia, Chinook Salmon develop the age-old urge, so familiar to SOLers, to go to sea, heading for different parts of the northern Pacific Ocean. This race catches up with a particular school with an instinctive memory for the Andreanov Islands far west on the Aleutian Islands chain, as they depart the Salian Sea between Vancouver Island and the San Juans. It’s 2200nm and we’re taking the 60ft Trimaran, in the hope we can keep up!
