Publié : 30 août 2015 16:32
The first leg of the Clipper will start sunday the 30th of August, 20hOO UTC+2.
The interface is open now to test the game.
All the boats will be placed at the departure of the race at 18h00 UTC+2. It will then be possible to set a sail and a heading for the start, or even enter some programings or way-points.
Be aware that the winds forecasts change at 20h00 UTC+2 so you have to take into account the +12 forecasts when trying to set sail, heading etc.
The new winds forecasts are downloaded and available few minutes after 18h30 UTC+2.
(The winds logo in the wind's bar becomes orange during the download, and then back to green when the forecasts are ready)
The iteration minute of this race is the minute 2. This means you will see your boat moved by refreshing a few seconds after each minute 2 (02, 12, 22, 32, 42, 52) and all the other boats moved by refreshing after each minute 3 (03, 13,..., 53).
