Hi Robert

It is how XCSoar calculates the start (and finish) line intersection. It looks for the closest point from the ends or the center point. I have been bitten with the same problem in the same context ie GP start glide mode.

Hi

I'm currently flying in the Queensland State comps that is running in the grand Prix format. I've explored the info boxes and I can't find one that calculates the start countdown correctly.

What is needed is a calculation based on the perpendicular distance to the start line, not the distance to the centre of the start line.

Am I missing something already there or is this something that needs to be added, if possible?
