    Ok, I started my other computer and it worked there, so this obviously is a problem on my end, I just cant figure out what the problem is..

    Waiting for weather download...
    Board » Technical Support
    Hi

    I´m participating in the Ron Cazar race and I quite often get a case where the applicaitons loads, but the map is blank and in the status bar it just says "Waiting for weather download...".

    What is this, is it something on my end or is it server related?

    Thanks!

    It is simply that the arrows behind are describing a curve - a common optical illusion. Love the work you guys keep doing and the quality that we are offered.
    "



    I´m not sure what you mean by the arrows behind, but the curve in the line is definatley not an optical illusion.

    But now that my brain has woken up fully I get how the twa predictor is working, and its really cool.

    One additional improvement that should be applauded in the upgrade is the significant improvement in response time when setting a new twa or cc, great job!!

    Great work it looks really cool and a great addition with the quarter hour submarks.

    Just one question though, atleast my line isn't straight, it actually feels like it has a slight S shape to it, very subtile but still. Is this just my eyes playing a trick on me or if not what does it predict? great circle?

    Having looked at it some more, it seems that when you set the boart to sail under twa the predictor isn't straight as it used to be, is it taking into account weather forecast or something?

    Thanks!

    Re: Day/Night Changes

    Personally I like the night mode better, since its better contrast between the wind arrows and the background. Also you only get dots for boats and don't have to see the traces of the top boats all the time, something that makes the windarrows impossible to see in that area.

    So in my opinion night mode is superior to day mode in some aspects.

    So thanks for building a great game guys!

    Re: VMG
    Board » General Discussion
    As I understand it and according to the formula, you don't. VMG is "way made good" in relation to the wind direction or the angle to the wind, twa. So you don't need two positions, only boat speed and twa.

    Though I guess you need two positions or a course to calculate VMC, "way made good to course" or something like that, but I don't know the formula for it.

    The VMG value is the boat speed in relation to the direction of the wind.

    Its calculated with this formula:
    "speed*(cos(twa))"

    What was said here earlier was probably wrong, as I think about it it seems that human error probably caused my mishap.

TuziTekwini TIMED Race 2025

Sailonline is delighted to have been invited to partner with the King Shaka Yacht Club (KSYC) of South Africa to bring a virtual version of the Tuzi Tekwini Ocean Raceto our online community.
The Tuzi Tekwini Ocean Race is a near 90 nautical mile race down the east coast of South Africa from the port of Richards Bay to the port of Durban. Achievable in a single day and seen by some as an easy mile-builder, the course is more tactical than some think and should not be underestimated. This iconic race promises to be an unforgettable experience for yachting enthusiasts.
Our online version of the race will be a TIMEDrace so you may RE-REGISTER HEREto try again after finishing a run. You will have 13 days and 11 hours to test your skill and decision making after the race opens.
