The boat had an invisible collision box around it.
The collision box stretches from the top of the vessel, down the sides to the waterline.
The base of the collision box is at the waterline of the vessel.
The water sheet has an up-down movement of about a meter to simulate wave swell.
Solway - river and port Annan
One drivable sailing flat, at stone quays at Annan - ijkl.
The other drivable sailing flat is at the far head of the Solway Firth at Rockcliffe on the river Eden. wasd
You may need to reverse the vessel between the floating barges.
In real time reversing is very slow for a sailing vessel.
Preset routes from wood pier to the stone quays at Annan harbour, key 1 to start it, key 2 starts the other sailing-flat from wood pier at the mouth of the river Annan across the Solway FIirth to where Port Carlisle and canal to Carlisle was to be built c1819.
I try to set the actual speed in relation to real time…so maybe 5 to 10 miles an hour for sailing-flats, much less in reverse. More for schooners to come later.
