It's just the client itself that is beta, to let you know it is newly developed and isn't throughly tested yet.

I don't like sailing with the flash client.

What I miss from the old client is:
- Big map window
- Resizeable polar window
- Tool to draw courses
- Different colours for different boats
- Boat traces
- Different blue colours depending on wind

Thanks for the feedback. We simply need to go for a web-based client to be compatible with fire-walls etc. We will work as hard as we can with getting most of the stuff you require into the client.

How is this allocated? Random? Entry Order?

Are colours reallocated next time one logs on?
If it breaks, it's not strong enough!

2008-11-11 22:24:53 - Re: Beta Wind Arrow Density
I think there are too many arrows at the moment and that the density of arrows does not change when zoomimg in or out. Perhaps a wind density slide scale could be good improvement, or a tab with set of preferences to turn off/on different elements.

Mad Max by Balloon 2026 - Across the Outback


Mad Max Rockatansky doesn’t get to go in a balloon in any of the Legends of the Wasteland, and the Wasteland is not necessarily the Outback of Australia, but Mel Gibson and film director George Miller indubitably are… of Australia, and ballooning as reconnaissance is a main feature of the Mad Max spin-off video game, so here goes: 1500nm in a balloon from somewhere on the edge of the Outback, Goondiwindi, to cross a finish line at Fitzroy Crossing, somewhere on the edge of the Outback!
