Hi Ralph,
I would like to use a flighted series in my standard examples folder; if you
are willing to have it included then yes I'd like a copy; thanks.
Have noted feedback; thanks.

Thanks Colin
Overall, the flights system worked like a dream (fortunately, the
1st & 2nd place tie break did not
go to A8.2)
When you get round to working on the flights section, you may
wish to give some thought to the
re-scoring options.
We had a number of instances where a race position/result needed
changing which we did through the
Tools\Rearrange recorded places menu. This needed extra care to
make sure that we did not mess up
the results (i.e lots of backups!).
In the 'normal' version (when not selecting App KE option??) it
is a simple process to enter the new
position then click on score which recalculates everything. When
using flights, positions are not
changed (obviously)
If possible, it would be great if the rescoring, based on the
flight information set up in the race
info, could be automatic.
i.e rescore is the default with an option not to amend other
places (for say RDG)if necessary. This
is a wish list rather than a major bug & should be prioritise
accordingly!!
If you or anyone else would like a copy of the file please let me know.
The event was a Topper Nationwide at Rutland with 133 boats split
into 4 'flights' on a round robin
basis with 6 races over the weekend
Regards
Ralph

Hi Ralph,
Sorry for delay. It must be a bug that I will make sure is sorted out by
the next release. Apologies for the inconvenience, and thanks
for promoting
Sailwave... You can get around it by not ticking the box to delete the
competitors and delete them by hand before reimporting; this
leaves the race
information intact.
Regards,
Colin
