@idefix37 Unfortunately not, it has no effect on the table, except the wind direction.

@rittels I did, I added 5kn boat speed. Please have a look at the screenshot. The table does only show the conditions at the time of departure. But the conditions should change according to the boat speed, so I see the conditions when I'm at a specific location.

@rittels I'm talking about the table with the overview about the route. It should show the forecasted wind for any waypoint at the time when you pass by the waypoint. Only then you can evaluate a route. It is a normal feature of all route planers.

If I'm at a waypoint in 24h, then I want to see the wind in 24h and not now. The table should provide this overview. Then you could play with the starting point to find the best starting time to have favourable winds on the route.

If I have to scroll through the route every time to see the wind changes, then it is not a useful tool.

@idefix37 sorry, but this is nonsense. Windy does show a forecast for more than 7 days. You can see the wind now, in 24h, in 2 days, etc. - so a route planer would only make sense, if it shows the wind at the specific location (waypoint) at the time when you are there. This is the information you are looking for. All real route planers are doing this.

The route planning is nice, but how does it work? It only shows the wind conditions from the starting point of the trip. But when I move to a waypoint 24h ahead, I want to see the wind conditions at that moment, not from 24h ago. Moving with a slow boat on a trip that takes a full week, I need a dynamic change of the wind conditions over time. Is it somehow possible to make that work?

Just to avoid a misunderstanding: I'm talking about the table in the lower half with the trip overview. The table does not show the wind conditions at the corresponding time and place, but only the wind conditions from the starting time.
