<p>-----------------------------------</p><p>Learn more at https://opensimworld.com/sfsail</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">SFsail is a new sailing engine written from scratch for OpenSim. It
works similarly to BWind and has mostly similar commands. Sit on a boat and say
'help' for a list of commands.</p><p><strong><span style="color: rgb(106, 168, 79);">You can find the SFsail boats in the OpenSimWorld Region: hg.osgrid.org:80:OpenSimWorld</span></strong></p>

<p><strong>HOW TO USE THE BOATS:</strong></p>
<p>- Boats are tuned to BulletSim by default. If you use ubODE,
edit the .SFsail script and change the setting IS_UBODE=1</p>
<p>- The first avatar who sits on a boat is the commander. If
the commander stands up the boat moors. Another person can then sit to
operate<span> </span>the boat</p>
<p>- You can operate the boat with left/right arrows
(steering), forward/back arrows (trim of the sails) and PgUp/PgDown to rotate
the Spinnaker</p>
<p>- Say 'raise' to raise mainsail + jib</p>
<p>- Say 'lower' to lower all sails</p>
<p>- Say 'moor' to stop and anchor the boat</p>
<p>- Say 'jib' to hoist/lower the jib</p>
<p>- Say 'genoa' to hoist/lower genoa (if available)</p>
<p>- Say 'spin' to hoist/lower spinnaker (if available)</p>
<p>- Say 'trim' to engage Autotrim which automatically trims
the sails to their optimal angles</p>
<p>- Say 'hold' to keep the boat pointing at the same angle</p>
<p>- Say 'flip' when the boat is moored to flip the boat
(useful when stuck on a dock)</p>
<p>- Say 'motor' to turn on the motor. Then use the up/down
arrows to change throttle. Say 'moor' to stop<span>
</span>the boat</p>
<p>- Say one of n,s,e,w,nw,ne,sw,se to set the Wind direction</p>
<p>- Say 8,11,15,18,21,25<span>
</span>to set the Wind speed</p>
<p>- Say 'hud' to turn on/off the hover text of the boat</p>
<p>- Say 'adv' to turn on/off advanced hud text</p>
<p>- Say 'milesreset' to reset the miles counter (shown in the
hud)</p>
<p>- Say 'setter' to enable/disable listening to the region
wind setter (or SFsail Manager)</p>
<p>- Say 'dest x y' to engage the autopilot to steer towards the region coordinates x,y</p>
<p>- Say 'dest x1 y1 x2 y2 x3 y3 ...' to engage autopilot to follow the route from region points x1 y1 ... Say 'stop' to stop autopilot</p><p>- Say 'follow <avatar name or object name>' to engage autopilot to follow another avatar or another boat. Say 'stop' to stop following</p><p>- Say 'route <route-name>' to begin a rout (requires Sail Manager / See below)</p>
<p>- Say 'stop' to stop the autopilot / stop following</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>ROUTES MANAGER / WIND SETTER</strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p>The 'SFsail Manager' object is a wind setter (creates wind for the 'setter' command), and a
place to rez and store your boat routes. If you don't already have a wind
setter, touch it and select 'Setter ON'.</p>
<p>Boat routes are stored in the notecard '.Sailroutes' inside the manager object, which
contains lines with routes. In each line, the x y coordinates of a route are defined (similar to the 'dest' command).</p>
<p>Each line is as follows:</p>
<p><span style="color: rgb(17, 85, 204);"><Route Name>=x1 y1 x2 y2 x3 y3 x4 y4
...</span></p>
<p>For example a route named 'Tour' line could be:</p>
<p><span style="color: rgb(17, 85, 204);">Tour=150 160 270 380 200 100 160 160</span></p>
<p>You can then engage the autopilot to join this route from any boat by saying:</p>
<p><span style="color: rgb(17, 85, 204);">route Tour</span></p>
<p>The boat will join the route at the nearest
point of the route and continue until the end. You can stop the autopilot at any time by saying 'stop'</p>
<p>You can use the object "SFsail Route helper" to help you make a route quickly. Rez it over water, and then, for each point, move it and then touch it. The route will be printed in the chat for you.</p>
<p> (Note: routes are approximate, the boat will try to reach within 10 meters of each route point. You will have to correct the boat if it goes against the wind)</p><p><br></p><p><strong>REZ A BOAT WITH NPC THAT FOLLOWS YOU</strong></p><p><span>You can use a second boat and an NPC to follow your boat. Rez a second boat that will follow you. Edit .SFconfig and change "Firstname Lastname" to your own avatar name, for example:</span><br><br><span>Button=FollowMe=LINKMSG{-4;889;follow Satyr Aeon}</span><br><br><span>Then sit and unsit to reload the configuration. Then Right click to touch the boat (without sitting) and select Options ->NPCs->ADD->Sailor. The NPC "Sailor" should sit on the boat now. </span><span>Touch the boat again and select Options -> FollowMe , then select Options -> Autotrim and then select Options->Raise. The boat with the NPC will now follow you. You can sit on your own boat and sail together.</span></p> <p><br></p> <p> </p>
<p><strong>CONFIGURATION</strong></p>
<p>You can change the configuration variables at the top of the
.SFsail script to tune your boat. </p>
<p>IS_UBODE=0<span> </span>// Change
this to 1 if you are using UBode</p>
<p>ACCESS = "A";<span>
</span>// Change who can drive the boat. the setting can be:
"A"=All<span> </span>"G"=Group
"O"=Owner only</p>
<p>MAX_ANGLE = 70;<span>
</span>Maximum allowed boom angle</p>
<p>HUD_ON=1<span> </span>// Change
this to 0 if you don't want the Hover text by default</p>
<p>ADV_HUD=1<span> </span>//
Change this to 0 if you don't want want advanced info in the Hover text</p>
<p>THROTTLE_MAX=5 // Change this to the maximum throttle of the
motor</p>
<p>SPEEDUP=0.9;<span> </span>//
Change this to larger or lower values to make the boat overall faster / slower</p>
<p>ENABLE_DYCAM = 1;<span> </span>//
Change this to 0 to<span> </span>disable the dynamic
camera</p>
<p>KEELING = 0.2;<span>
</span>//<span> </span>Change this to larger or lower
values to make the boat keel more or less</p>
<p>LEEWAY = 0.2;<span>
</span>//<span> </span>Change this to larger or lower
values to make the boat to have more leeway (sideways drift)</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>SFposer BUTTONS</strong></p>
<p>The SFsail boats use SFposer<span>
</span>to handle the animations. SFposer Buttons are added to the Options menu to send commands
to the boat.<span> </span>The boat accepts commands through link_messages with num=889</p>
<p>To add an SFposer button, add a Button line to the
.SFconfig notecard. For example to add a button to hoist the genoa, add the following line to .SFconfig:</p>
<p><em>Button=Genoa=LINKMSG{-4;889;genoa}</em></p>
<p>Similarly, you can create a route for a boat by sending an appropriate 'dest' command:</p>
<p><em>Button=Start Route=LINKMSG{-4;889;dest 150 160 270 380 200 100
160 160}</em></p><p>The SFsail boats contain a button for the boat to follow you. You need to edit .SFconfig to replace "Firstname Lastname" in the Button's configuration line with your own avatar's name:</p><p><em>Button=FollowMe=LINKMSG{-4;889;follow Satyr Aeon}</em></p><p>The SFsailboats come preloaded with one NPC named 'Sailor'. To rez the NPC to follow you with his boat, click Options->NPCs->Add NPC->Sailor, then Options->AutoTrim, then Options->FollowMe, and finally Options->Raise.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>WARNINGS</strong></p>
<p>The boats do not support crossing regions, unless you have
OSSL permissions in both regions.</p>
