2009-02-13 07:59:26 - Problem with Web Client time slider
I have just noticed that there is a problem with the time slider.

The time as indicated on the tooltip as you move the slider and the time displayed below the slider are 30 minutes apart, with the tooltip being ahead at first, but then when the slider indicates Sat Feb 14 01:30, then text below 'jumps' an hour ahead to be 30 minutes ahead of the slider: ie in 1 timestep the text below goes from 0:20 to 1:30. This occured when the text indicated (+17.0h). The indication of how forward into the future is not effected, it increments normally still.

As it is the text which changes behaviour, I will assume the slider tooltip is correct?

I have only just noticed this, so I dont know if the problem has been introduced with the client update on Thursday 12/02/09 or not...

Odd, I cannot replicate the issue on my computer. Anyone else?

well, I was out for awhile, came home and saw your reply, so i thought I would load the client again to see if it was a once off thing....

Nope, happens again, but this time the switch was at +17.8hrs

I include 2 screenshots at the timesteps before and after it happens, so you can see...

It is not big deal, as I said in OP, will just use tooltip as correct time.

Red Eye - Myth of Malham 2025

In 1947, Hugh McLean & Sons of Gourock, Scotland built a radical racing yacht for John Illingworth, soon-to-be Commodore of the RORC, to a design by Laurent Giles. With a masthead rig, giving her ‘free’ sail area per the rules of the time, and short overhangs reducing pitching, Myth of Malham went on to win The Fastnet that year and again in 1949, and to compete in numerous Admiral's Cups. In 1958, in honour of the yacht, the Myth of Malham race was conceived - a mini-Fastnet to the first lighthouse on a rock west of Cowes, Eddystone, rather than the second, to be held in non-Fastnet years. IRL this year it has been raced already, but this stops us not from “Red Eye” racing its online 230nm in Fareast 31Rs, leaving how to deal with the Isle of Wight open to your own discretion.

Africa by Sea 2025 - Maputo to Mogadishu


The fifth leg of our exploration of Africa By Sea takes us north along the length of the Continent’s succulent sub-tropical and tropical Indian Ocean coast. Much fought over by traders and colonists both well-before and after a Portuguese expedition under the command of Vasco da Gama first sailed there from Europe back in the 16th century, it is yet to be properly explored as a yachting destination. With plenty of islands off- and inshore, small and very large, there is much to interrupt your 1900nm voyage and visit in your Swan 65, from Maputo to Mogadishu! Race #1858
