Default SeeYou task settings

Thanks Andrej -- changing the distance calculation setting still
doesn't give me a matching distance.

When I have "use flight fixes" selected in Task options, it properly
uses the distance flown into the turn point cylinder (1.6km mile
radius for Assigned Tasks), but I invariably get a Distance score that
is quite different that WinScore's.

In particular, I'm looking at my six different scores from the Region
9 contest last year, and cannot get the same distance/speed
calculation on any of them. I *can* get the same task distance
distance (not score!) on an Assigned Task *if* I set the "Use
waypoints" option for distance calculation in the "Task options" page.

Maybe check the task time in the flight properties. In area tasks
SeeYou stops the scoring flight at the end of the task time, which, if
you flew longer, of course is shorter than the actually flown task.
At the advent of the Area Task this was how it was scored. SeeYou
hasn't adapted to the new (several years old) way of scoring where the
task time is a minimum time and not a maximum.
I've always found that annoying. -- Andrej?

So, Ted, maybe adjusting the task time to something longer than the
actual flight might solve the problem.
