    What would be good for me and maybe others is the ability to enter a delayed command with a specific time rather than a fraction of hours. So for example enter steer cc 129 at 1820 UT.

    Would it be possible to include on the maps the names of islands. Maybe just the major ones, could maybe only make them visible when you zoom in to a particular level, or maybe toggle them on / off. Quite often I look at the map and would like to know more about where we are in the real world in more detail.

    Ahhh, OK that explains why when you zoom right in on your boat it sometimes looks like it is ahead of boats that are listed as being ahead of it.

    What about the ability to download the race positions in Excel format. When I'm at work its great to monitor positions every couple of hours via excel and see who you're gaining on and who's pushing to overtake you. Right now I have to copy and paste all this stuff which is very tedious. Maybe someones already generated a program to do this quickly, otherwise and XLS download would be great. You can also work out others speed which is really useful.

  • Not sure if this is a bug?
    Board » Technical Support
    I am in the GOld race and just hit 68 degrees west and cant go any further west, another boat is in the same situation, has the playable area been set to stop at 68 west or is this a bug?

  • Performance reductions
    Board » Technical Support
    Hi

    I know that if you run aground or change direction you suffer a performance reduction. If you instruct your boat to sail according to a fixed TWA do you suffer a performance reduction every time the server makes an automatic alteraction to your course to keep you on the fixed TWA course?

    Another suggestion. I like the fact that the boat polar shows the current boat situation by a spot, it would be good to be able to make this window larger to see the coloured contours more clearly, or maybe just highlight the contour/s relevant to the current wind speed.

    I would like to be able to switch from one race to another without having to exit the Client Program. Currently i two races and it would be good to swap from one to the other.

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!
