Welcome!

Hi,

I've created a web site for all Condor's pilots to share tasks.

You can publish your own tasks or search and download best tasks.

New features will arrive soon:
- Submitter can add FTR (so you have a ghost to compete with)
- Players can add FTR if they have a new record for the task
- Manage automatically race results

The site is still in beta, please feel free to report bugs, suggestions or comments!

http://condor.ephemeride.com/

Enjoy,
Thierry (BOD1)

Yes, nice site and good idea to preserve all the good tasks. I liked the comments which tell you right away if it is a 'funny' task. I'll wait till there are some realistic tasks before I try anything though.

Request for small improvement. In the task description it is missed one weather parameter - speed of the wind. Would be good to add. Everything else - perfect. :!:

A bug found - can't download flight plan. When clicking "Download it now", IE tells "Error on page".

Hi Tima,

I think IE didn't load the javascript correctly. Click OK and press F5 to refresh the page!

It works for me.

For wind speed, you have 4 icons: no wind, weak, medium and strong.

New features of the day:

* Tabbed task description

* A submitter could attach his flight track (FTR) to the task, now every pilots can publish their best FTR! The 50 first best times are published, the 5 best times are available in .FTR for download.
There are some conditions to add your time:
1) Finish the task ...
2) The task *must* be identical to the one available on the site, no modification accepted
3) 0 penalty point
4) save your flight ("Save flight track") and upload the .FTR file ("Best times" tab)

*You can now update your tasks. If Flight Plan is changed, best times/FTRs are deleted.

Note: only FTRs made with Condor 1.0.9 are supported.

I didn't test this feature extensively, please notify weird things/bugs... :)
