    MarkSetBot function

    I have 12.6.6 installed and there is a new (new to me at least) button on the Marks ribbon; MarkSetBot,

    I guess you can download positions of mark bots.

    But how does it work?

    clicking on it opens a dialog box that asks for "ID".

    The help is not updated for this yet, i think.

    The ID needs to be supplied by the Event - they get from MSB.

    It is VERY useful, but for some reason a lot of RC are reluctant to use it.

    You can use it to download MSB commanded positions, and update course/start if desired, else just show mark positions.

    so there is one ID for the event that gets all bot positions.., and not one ID per bot - right?
