And that's why it's important for the moon to be its real 30' size in the sky. The periscope is a measuring device and is it too much to ask that it measure correctly?

Hey tater, how about a mod for extended objects in the night sky. The Milky Way and a few major nebulae would be really cool in the middle of the Pacific. M33, M32, NGC 253, the Orion Nebula, The Beehive Cluster (M44), the Coma Cluster (some obscure catalog number, lol) should all be easily visible to the naked eye at night on a submarine in the middle of nowhere. We could turn SH4 into a planetarium!:arrgh!:

thanks for that pic Bill Nichols
 
I will work on making the sun set's and reflections for it on the water more like that. I started getting the effect just not the coloring by adjusting sun reflection angles vs possition of the sun. It is comming together just needed a day off for an aniversarty party.

BTW I just got a new tweeker file from jaketoox
 
that should make this project go smoother I havn't given up on it just working on other stuff inbetween this. So maybe the work will go a little smoother now and I can get the reflections correctly working faster. One of the new things that you will be seeing is cloud reflections on the smoother surfaces of the ocean when the winds are at 0 mps and now both sun and moon reflections can be adjusted not just the sun.
