I am new to Sailwave. One of our events has a rule which says you cannot discard a DNC in the last race. Is it possible to set Sailwave to score this rule? I can see how to set so you cannot discard DNCs at all but not just for one race.
Hi Chris- Welcome to Sailwave. An easy solution would be to create a new scoring code e.g. DNCLR for DNC Last race
Then edit the properties to Discard = No
then set all the DNC’s in the last race to DNCLR
Hope that helps
Jon

Hi Chris,
An even easier solution is to make the final race non-discardable
To do this Right click last race column header and select edit
race. Then edit each race start and check the box next to the
words “This race is not discardable”.
Kind regards,
Huw

I don’t think making the race non discardable is what he wants as they could have discards allowed just not DNC. Jon

Thanks very much for your help. Jon’s solution looks best but I did not know you could make individual races non-discardable so that may be useful too.
