Expand description

How far a tack ray reaches from the vessel in tack_rays.

Unlike a layline, a tack ray has no mark to scale itself against – there is no “distance to” anything – so this is a plain figure instead: long enough to read clearly at typical coastal and harbour display scales, short enough not to run off a zoomed-in view. pub for the same reason as LAYLINE_LENGTH_FACTOR.
