Tacking (zig-zag) is the only way that any sailboat captain with more than 2 days of experience would try to sail into the wind. It's the meta of real life sailing if you want to put it that way. Watch any sailing race, like America's Cup, and tacking properly is the key to winning.

In Wurm, I have to slow right down before tacking or I fall off.

Yeah, but I would consider that a separate issue that desperately needs to be dealt with. Too be fair though, in a high wind IRL it's very possible to capsize when turning.

Probably even less than than usual to suggestions at the moment.  

 

But, yeah, when we have some kind of active communication or even development happening again, this should be pretty high on the list - it is a constant irritation for sailors.
