Limit on number of penalty zones
Limit on number of penalty zones
Does Condor has a limit on the number of penalty zone you can add? I seem to have hit a limit of 8, after that the option to create a new penalty zone is greyed out.

Re: Limit on number of penalty zones
I only seem to be able to set 4 PZ's (each with 4 corners). Is there a trick to increase it to 8? Also, I can't set the heights in feet, which is inconvenient since the Designated Airspace Handbook in Canada is in feet. I would have hoped setting Imperial or Australian units would set this to feet.
Update: I saved the .fpl file, and was able to get to the maximum of eight that way. Inconvenient.

Re: Limit on number of penalty zones
I've just tested and with the latest version of Condor 2 the GUI allows me to input 8 penalty zones.
As for the request for more penalty zones that'd be awesome. I tried editing the fpl file manually but it all goes a bit crazy if you enter in more than 8.
Wickid is there a reason it was decided 8 would be enough? What is the impact of having more? Is it to do with the graphical representation and if there are more it hits FPS?
For somewhere like the UK it'd be useful to be able to create more so that realistic airspace can be created.

Don't know. My guess is how it is stored in memory. Only Uros can tell you.

Re: Limit on number of penalty zones
BTW - if there may be (some day) update to penalty zones - what about different shapes also - circles?
And import from one of RL formats? Would be much easier to set them.

Re: Limit on number of penalty zones
Agree with both; even increasing the allowed points from four to six would really help. Most of the airspace I have to work with is circular. Also, having a display like the thermal height and inversion height where it can be dragged rather than typed would improve it. Also, having a check box for feet as well as metres would be nice. Very, very nice.
