Exercises of a course can also have different defaults in terms of content. For example, exercise "A" can be set up in a beginner course with a 30 feet yacht and no wind as the default. However, the same exercise may have 4 Bft crosswind and a larger yacht as default in an advanced course.
Each exercise has variable contents. These are usually:
- Screw direction (1)
- Ship model (2) and ship physics (6)
- Wind direction (3) and wind speed (7)
- Current direction (4) and current speed (8)
Since each exercise is based on a template (content template), the options available here are also based on this template. So not all wind directions or ships are always available.
Changing the defaults
The options highlighted in blue are the ones that will be used when the exercise is started. To activate a different start option, click on it with the mouse. (Note that the changes will not take effect until a participant logs in (again).
To reset changes to the default settings, use the "Restore defaults" button (10).
