Hi,
Onno thanks for your reply.
As you know I tried the new tacking function a few weeks ago. After changing the tacking.py file and building it I tried here at home.
Using tinypilot (image 27102021) running on a raspberry zero and opencpn (latest version) on a raspberry 3b+ running raspian buster (not openplotter) and tinypilot as a wifi client from the OC-raspberry.
I don´t have any NMEA input to OC. I use the NMEA-Plugin to generate a fake wind data stream wich is shown into the tinypilot as the compass course.
When starting the tacking function from the plugin it starts to count down and then switched to "tacking" but sets no new steering course and the actuator don´t move.
The plugin is hanging in this status until I close it and reopend it. With the old tacking.py the plugin stops and disconnect from pypilot after hit the tack knob.
The switching problem for the tacking direction is an other problem that I have too.
I´ll try to build the version with a new web gui and test this with my OC-system.
Thanks and best regards
Andreas
