Hello Jacqueline, I love your Beach Cat. I’m currently making some modifications to the prims, which makes the overall boat slightly larger. To account for that, I have to move the sit targets a little bit. I saw that the sit target script in the root prim was “no modify”. May I ask you for a modify version of JUST that script? If you have some reservations about that, could you contact me in world? Thanks in advance.

Hi Jacqueline

I am having trouble getting a Friendship Sloop to “goosewing” on a dead or training run. With mains’l set, if I try to oppose the jib and stays’l, they just luff.

Advice please..

Second Question :) It “seems” that now in Havoc4 I cant get the Friendship to Start sailing from a dead stop / moored situation .. I am not the worlds best Sailor I know .. I am sat here facing East, I have just done a /1 set wind 180 10 and as expected the HUD is showing the wind nicely from astern - HUD (using EZsail Hud) says “dead run” .. so i let out sails to 50 degrees(ish) and I just sit there …

lower Sails .. start motor (/1 motor on) tap up key, just get going.. wait a few seconds do a /1 motor off and put up sails and we are away :)

Lower sails and moor.. raise sales and again sit still in the “doldrums” until I bump the boat with the motor to get it moving

Jacqueline - read thru the FAQs and note cards but am unable to find the answer to this .. How do I set a Friendship Sloop to use Second Life Wind again

/1 set wind sets the “artificial wind” speed, direction variation etc .. I cant see how to go back to SL wacky wind :)

Jacqueline- please delete or disregard #14- I’ve read more, and found several launching/sailing areas. However- I would like some help with my Sojourner HUD…. I’m unable to edit the width. Using the stretch both sides, etc. - when Ctrl-Shft is used, there are no horizontal stretch handles, only upper and lower corners. I understand this may nothing to do with your work, just wondering if you know of this.

Oh , about those who commented on helpsail - that is feature of the attachable boats that displays a little extra info on the HUD - the ideal sail set, etc. The next update will remove that bit of extraneous chat from the ridable boats.

Hi SM. There are a few quirks, no showstoppers as LL calls it. The most annoying seems to be a jerkiness in the angular motor (which controls the heeling and rise and fall on a swell motion). It has also been reported that contact with an inworld avatar will stop the boat. These have been JIRAed and hopefully will be addressed by LL soon.
