SH4 uses base time in-game. I don't know about Mission Editor time however it would be easy to find out.

Each patrol I draw vertical lines on my chart - 15d for every hour, so I know how many hours to add or subtract from base-time depending on where I am. It only takes a few minutes to do, and is very helpful.

I draw vertical lines 7.5d each side of 180d, and every 15d E and W from those lines. The moon-rise & moon-set tables can then be used as well as the Sun tables to plan your attacks etc. There aren't the RW N/S seasonal differences, so the tables are pretty close no matter what latitude or longitude you are on.

I found this so useful I edited the Sun & Moon tables into my F1 Help file.

- Edited spelling - (if you can't spell a word more than one way, you don't know how to spell) ... lol

Happy Hunting!
