-- If this behavior cannot be compensated by this parameter value either, then
set the parameter value for ”S_LENGTH” to the next highest value.
Repeat the heading change maneuver.
If the heading change is too slow, the ship will cease to turn shortly before
reaching the SET HEADING setting.
-- Reduce the ”CNT. RUD” value by 1.
Repeat the heading change maneuver.
-- If this behavior cannot be compensated by parameter value, increase the
parameter value for ”RUDDER” step by step.
Repeat the heading change maneuver.
-- If this behavior cannot be compensated by this parameter value either, then
set the parameter value for ”S_LENGTH” to the next lower value.
Repeat the heading change maneuver.
Storing the optimized parameters:
