Re: Finish altitude shadow to show max and min height

I am not sure if there is a quick and easy way to estimate this arithmetically, but I know that many people use XCSoar for this feature. It would be nice if it were integrated into the Condor PDA, but I think, based on other posts in here, that their main focus at the moment is aircraft dev and weat...

Records without FTRs ?

I'm curious as to why there are so many task records without available FTRs/flight analysis options? It would be helpful and educative to see how others are flying tasks that I'm working on, but often only 1 or 2 of the top 20 are available. Does anybody know why this is?

Thermalling big-and-heavies

With full ballast and the higher stall speed that comes with it, I am finding it rather difficult to keep most thermals centred. Looking at FTRs from CC, I'm clearly not the only one. Are there any tips or tricks, e.g., moving c/g or specific ways of flying thermals when big and heavy?

Re: test: just ignore

It's been over a month since anybody has ignored this. Should I be worried?

You're not alone in your frustration with this feature, despite the deafening silence. It would likely reduce the number of duplicate questions posted if the search tool allowed more searching....

Bug - Gold Badge Mismatch: Club class selected from "all" list

I got around to flying the gold badge task for AA2 (really great task - tonnes of wave action and incredible scenery!), but upon uploading to CC, I got the dreaded "mismatch" message. This task is for club class gliders. I flew it in a StdCirrus without ballast, which is a club class glider. HOWEVER...

EU equivalent to US Nightly?

The post title says it all: is there a nightly multiplayer task for those of us in Europe who don't want to get up in the middle of the night to join our good friends on the other side of the pond? I'm seeing plenty of competitions with suitable times, but nothing more on the casual end of the spect...

Re: WestGermany3 wish-list / progress

Really beautiful work on this! Many many thanks for the time and effort put into its development. Would one be opposed to putting EDQX (Hetzleser Berg) on the next update? Even a generic runway and windsock would be great, as a very active club flies out of there and it is a common starting point fo...

Re: Restarting Task: dist/time/speed not showing?

Thank you for the quick reply. I'll interpret your response to mean that real time scoring is not enabled for gold badge tasks and I'll give it another go tomorrow then. I suppose to be sure I would need to inspect the task file itself (e.g., in notepad) prior to starting, or? I didn't see anything ...

Restarting Task: dist/time/speed not showing?

Whilst flying the gold badge task for AA2, I restarted the task about a dozen times (within the correct altitude window), and I hear/see the sound+message stating that I have restarted the task. However, the "classification" table showing dist/time/speed (Tab key) doesn't seem to register this after...

Thanks for the reply! It would certainly be very useful for newcomers to see how we're doing if possible!
