Route definition in notecards :
-----------------------------------
Extremely simple route definition. For a basic cruise, copy/paste SLURL's from the world map OR the website map (http://maps.secondlife.com/) into a notecard, name it and drop it into the HUD et voila.
Optionally add indications for each mark.
Format :
SLURL(,type,range,comment)
Type : short description of the type of mark. Default is WP for Waypoint, you are free to use anything (eg. CW/CCW for (Counter)Clockwise)
Range : range in meter for target reaching and auto advance.
Default is 50m
Comment : indications about the marker.
Region, type and range will show on the HUD.
Region, type, range and comment will be said in chat (to owner).
Perfect !
This is a great tool. Just make a notecard with slurs of the waypoints of a cruise or race, drop it in the hud and your done. Works great .
Highly recommended.
I'll never be lost at sea again!
I have tried several other navigation HUDs and been disappointed. The first time I installed the Ultimate Sailor Buddy I fell in love. Navigating with it is intuitive, easy and FUN and creating new routes is as simple as copying SLURLs to a notecard. I did it on my first day using the HUD. The Ultimate Sailor Buddy has made sailing more fun for me and I am sure every sailor who races or cruises on the virtual waters of Second Life will want one.
