How do I customise the auto-centre feature?
Customising the Auto-Centre feature: *** Note, this technique involves editing the System Registry, which is a potentially dangerous activity, please only attempt this if you are a confident Windows operator *** The two variables are in the Registry, and called AC_Ready and AC_Return … registry keys are here: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SoftwareOnBoard\sob\Settings These numbers are percentages of the half screen width (if the ship is heading 45-135 or 225-315) or the half screen height (for the other sectors). So unless you are using a 1:1 aspect ratio (which of course no one does) there might be inconsistencies around a heading of 45, 135, 225 and 315. The way it works is that when the AC_Ready percentage of screen is traversed by the ship, then it will be returned to the position which is AC_Return percentage away from the chart centre. So to make a combination that doesn’t allow the ship to sail near the screen edge, and to keep as much chart in front of the ship as possible, then
