2011-07-13 16:48:32 - No auto update on IE
What can I do and change in the setings to make SOL auto update the map view in races?
I'm on a company computer with Winblows7, Internet Exploder v8 behind massive firewalls which I can't change.

Right now I have to send a new CC or TWA and then reload the page to see the result on the predictor line.

How long do you wait before reloading - the client SHOULD show the new command result within 30 seconds (and most likely < 15 seconds). Are you behind some caching web proxy?

Hej Kalle,
I sometimes leave it running to see what happens or when there's no immediate course change to be made. I've then seen that the boats stop moving but the calculated TWA line is slowly shifting position. From being clear of land it's slowly creeping across islands etc. After reloading I see the true TWA line and I'm still clear.
The chat isn't updating either.
Not sure if the company has caching servers but it's possible since the net runs on a satellite connection.

(I'm typing this on my MacBook Pro on Safari without any issues) The PC in the control room is locked to running IE and I can't bring the laptop to the engine room ;)

Red Eye - Melville Island PYOC 2026

Melville Island is the largest of the Tivi group opposite the port of Darwin in the Timor Sea. Tropically forested and thinly populated, not a lot goes on there, but let’s race around it anyway, lar- or starboard round, it’s a little more than 120nm, so, no matter where you are navigating from on the planet, you will be hard-pressed to complete the course aboard your J-80 in daylight hours!
