Uh... sounds to me like you are a member of the "No Kiddin' Racing Pilot"-Team in real life - approaching the glider waiting there "ready to rock" and having a short preflight checklist.

No, just a regular recreational paraglider pilot
It's just many times i saw friends that forget to take water and then race for them is over. Me too, couple of times..
Re: User wish list to Condor creators
Hi,
I'd like to have a distinct marking for outlanding fields (those that have a type 3 in the Waypoint style field, number 7 of the .cup files, as per http://download.naviter.com/docs/CUP-fi ... iption.pdf). So far there are only type 1 fields.
XCSoar at least does it.
Now it is just a small yellow circle whatever the type.
I could add an "airport" with the Landscape editor, but then the icon would be exactly the same as real airports (green circle intersected by two parallel lines), and that' d be confusing.
Thanks and all the best !

I havent try flying with ghosts, so I have a few questions:wickid wrote: ↑Fri Feb 14, 2020 8:33 amWhy don't you fly against ghosts? You can download the flight tracks from the big competitions and fly against real pilots offline.soldano wrote: ↑Fri Feb 14, 2020 1:03 amAI Competitors.
I used time ago to fly "Sailors of the Sky" ,which by the way, at its time was an excelent and advanced sim. As I dont fly online, the only thing I miss from it , is the lack of AI competitors flying with me.
At SOTS that was very well implemented. You could fly against them in a very reallistic way.
I guess coding that is very dificult, but can be done.
Can we fly against multiple ghosts ?,
Do they show graphically as the gliders used in each former flight track ?
It is as in real life, flying with several other competitors , which can start before or after you, and you can surpase them, or fly thermals together ?
Thanks
Re: User wish list to Condor creators
Hi,
great simulator again! I am training a lot cross country flying. A few things would be great to improve the skills.
How about a statistic review of the flying, especially thermaling. Like the average climbing and what would have been possible in the thermals of the flight when thermaling left and right. Am I always in the center or next to it? How is my first circle or am I always turning into the wrong direction? Would be a nice feature.
Maybe an in flight statistic page on the pda like on an oudie?
Wouldn't it be great to analyze the landing like in xplane or so? How hard was it? Like how many g. How was the final compared the the optimum?
And a totally different thing. Wouldn't it be great to import weather data? Maybe to make flight more comparable or use actual weather when you can't drive to the airport or its closed because of corona? Or you can fly at the other hemisphere when it is winter a home. The TopMeteo guys are interested in this.
Just some suggestions, but it is great like it is.
Thanks, Willy

If the Condor2 FLIGHT ANALYSIS is not enough for you there are other options.

A lot of that data you will get from XCSoar. In the manual it tells you how to connect it to Condor.WillVM wrote: ↑Sat Apr 11, 2020 2:02 pmHi,

For flight analyses SCI is an excellent tool: https://virtualsoaring.eu/download

Re: User wish list to Condor creators
Recently flew a few sessions with new Condor users and the Height recovery enabled. A few times pilots pressed inadvertently the Q height recovery button. I believe this is quite a common error to do, I have made this mistake as well a few times.
Would it be possible to have an undo height recovery/height recovery penalty for 3 seconds after pressing Q? Suggested key combination of SHIFT Q Within 3 sec after pressing Q to undo Height recovery/penalty.

Re: User wish list to Condor creators
1) Add a "year built" between filter to the Hangar selection so that only gliders of a certain vintage are available during online sessions.
2) Add a take "turnpoint picture" feature to NOTAM to simulate old school photo turns.

Re: User wish list to Condor creators
2 is already available. Just deselect the PDA and use oldschool navigation. It is the only way to fly tasks with the grunau baby and the SG38

Re: User wish list to Condor creators
As mentioned several times before, I would like to have the possibility to select custom classes. For example, you can choose a mixed 15m class with club/std/15m, of course with a corresponding index rating. I know, this is also possible with all class, but this way you could avoid discussions and time-consuming explanations in the breefing. In addition one could exclude "unwanted" gliders (diana ) or select only gliders of a certain generation.

Re: User wish list to Condor creators
Thi biggest thing I'd like to see is a Spectator mode for multiplayer. Either for people joining too late, can cycle between competitors showing their cockpit view or external (standard F8 view), or people who have finished the task - extend the F8 view to more than 6km away.
Re: User wish list to Condor creators
We have “fixed” best we can the spectator mode by streaming pilots views to discord for others to watch. It is better than nothing.
What would be good is if we could have a web hook or something out of the dedicated server, which could send messages such as people starting, turning TPs, finishing, etc and then we could integrate that into Discord for a text commentary.
Better still would be position updates so that we could generate a top down map (this could be disabled for super serious competitions).
It would be good if we could automate sending of IGC files to a nominated service on landout/finish so that we could properly score them.
