2011-04-11 08:29:02 - Country flag changing
I just noticed after registering for the St Malo timed race, when it 1st loaded it showed me under a French Flag, then when i sorted by country it changed to Swedish. Then i ordered by name again and it changed again to a flag i was not familiar with. otrdering by rank then changed the flag to Finnish.
Every time I re-order the boat list my flag changes.... ??
I help develop the client interface for the best online ocean racing sim there is... __/)/)_/)__

Hi,

Yes, when a boat is newly registered it takes a while for the country to reach the server "cache", so this floats around until the boat information is refreshed in the client. Could be fixed by handling this case int he client, you wanna have a go? :)

well I have no idea of server code obviously, but all I could possibly think to do is not display a flag in client until next meta update... haven't really paid much attention to how often they are though, only boat and fleet data... seeems an odd issue that they would change around, or that re-ordering boat list would trigger it...

Not odd at all, list rows are re-used for performance.

The Vineyard Race 2025


For the first time since first hosting a virtual Vineyard in cooperation with Long Island's Stamford Yacht Club back in 2010, due to an operational calendaring error, Sailonline has missed the start of the real life race, the USA’s Labor Day weekend this year unusually falling across the turn of August. Silly SOL! So, a week late please join us anyway for a virtual rerun of Stamford’s iconic annual overnighter from their club line out the sound to Buzzard's Bay Light near Martha's Vineyard Island and back again, leaving Block Island to starboard. This year, Sailonline is making its magic MC 38 available to competitors, a race boat with a quirky polar that will require you to stay wide awake as you speed around the c 250 nm course, in rockstar style!
