Looks like this message didn't go through, trying another address

Apologies if duplicated

------------------------------------------------------------------

Since version 7.4 (at least on Android) XCSoar doesn't accept the "\" anymore before the plane name in the path to the .xcp polar file

PlanePath="%LOCAL_PATH%\Polars\JS3-15-FXB.xcp" doesn't work, it has to be: PlanePath="%LOCAL_PATH%\Polars/JS3-15-FXB.xcp"

This means that I had to make a new version of my Condor task converter (CoTaCo - https://condorutill.fr/index.php)

Fortunately, the previous versions apparently supported both the "\" and "/", so that my fix is backwards compatible

Was that change made on purpose ?
If yes, can someone please explain me why as I really don't see what improvement it would bring...

Regards
