Boat data
| This method of importing boat data is just one of several you can use with VRTool. All of these methods are described in detail in Importing Boat Data. |
The GetUser control at the top of the panel is where you place a copy of the GET message which the Virtual Regatta game sends to the game server to retrieve boat data. Obtaining the correct message string for your boat is quite complex and is described in detail in Importing Boat Data.
Clicking on the icon beside this control sends the GET message to the game server. The data returned from the server is displayed on the panel below the control. If you click the icon more than once in a 10 minute server cycle the data returned will a repeat of the previous data and it is ignored with the message "Same or old boat data".
