BSP to reach start line at 0
Hi!
Is there an output to see the speed needed to reach the start line at 0?
I can see the Start reach speed to line, but not sure it is the correct one. The goal is to show the target speed to reach the line at 0 at all times in the pre-start.

Hey Lukas
Try the variables:
Start speed on port
Start speed on starboard
Which are the Speed required to reach the line on port or starboard
Not sure how easy these would be to sail to in practice through. There is a reason why the vast majority use time to burn and burn ratio.

Hi Ross
We tried it and it didn't work great. The speed kept disappearing and coming back when sailing to the line, so it was hard to get a clear target.

Did you try to add dampening?
