Sailboat Navigation & Wind Current #27

Closed johngroves closed 5 years ago

johngroves commented 5 years ago

Hi,

Thanks for all of your work on this project!

Do you have an example of running the wind current modules, and an example of a sailboat navigation module? When running the scenarios, my sailboat model slowly drifts downwind.

Vince-vd commented 5 years ago

I have noticed the same, all the other scenario's seem to work as intended (at first glance), but the sailboat just drifts. @johngroves did you ever find a solution for this? I've tried increasing the wind speed value in the world xml file, but that did not change anything.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
