Oh no, I appear to be starting to write a sailing simulator.

It was only a matter of time. 🥲 I love writing simulators for things I am learning. It bolsters my understanding so much!

Step one: scrolling tiled water background. ✅

✅ Dufour 31 sprite drawing
✅ Decided on scale (40 pixels / metre at cameraScale = 1.0)

I chose the Dufour 31 because that's what I learned in during the 4-day class I took in February. :3

✅ Dynamic wind particles, indicating strength and direction

EDIT: It's very noticeable when animated, but quite subtle in this screenshot.

✅ Sail trim and relative angle to wind controls *speeeeeed*!

Yay! You can actually sail around now, and see how sail trim affects speed at different angles. ^__^ V

This screenshot is in 40 knots of wind. 😅
