Can you give me more information about the "crash into wall".

Where is this happening? Is it the same spot each time?
What speed did you set? What TC were you using?

Most problems with the Harbour pilot script is caused when you hit a ship at high TC and deflect off to hit the wall.
Monitor the pilot from map view at TC64 and drop to TC1 when you see a ship.
Drop speed to slow and most the time the ship will try and get out of your way.


TDW has sent me his new code for the script commands.
The next version of harbour pilot will have some safety features to do all the above points without you having to watch it
