fixed the arrows and check mark problems with Reaper7's ERM (especially the black skin version). Now the arrows for selecting next and previous ship in the recoginition manual are green and so is the check mark for when you select the ship to use:

super:rock::arrgh!::woot:

really looking forward to v5.7.0, will it include a tutorail on how to use
the sextant to calculate our position manually?

+100000000000
only if it is possible for examples of how it was with RAOBF in Pictures:rock:

As of now sextant is useless. It gives an error from 200 and up to 5000km, depending how you take your site. We are currently researching if celestial navigation is at all possible with in-game tools in SH5.

you know what I just realized? I have the lattitude and longitude reporting in error :eek: Lattitude reports as E or W and longitude reports as N or S. The numbers are correct but the identifiers aren't :nope: At least it's an easy fix :oops: Wow....it's been this way for some time now :-?

Could we have the soan included in the toggle charts visibility button please .

Yes, I`m in. Good idea:yeah:

No crosshair - green lines in the Night
 

Can anybody help me with this? Now I`m sure I got some problem but I don`t know what exactly... Help needed.

Which images are used to ship's shapes at ERM XO book?
They are looks scretched too much (pushed? pressed? sueezed?)

Should look like it, I think (resized original *.sil files):

Second issue for weather report:
http://img683.imageshack.us/img683/8316/weatherr.png

My tiny proposal:
00:21 [ship status]
00:21 Weather report will be ready at several minutes.
00:26 Weather report: Clouds clear...

Is possible to put a dash between reports?
cloud - clear, precipitations - none, fog - none.
Why use "meters per second" formula this same but shorter is m/s
If there are no cloud then I'm sure that there are no rain (precipitations).

Having fun learning navigation!
 

Expensive hobby though. And I don't even have a vessel!!! Got StarPilot for my iphone--as you can set time to, e.g., 02/14/1940 13:51.11

I "roughed" in position at N53 and W05. The sun appeared bearing 240 (true) at roughly 20 deg above horizon. See screenies.

Now what I input:


https://brandtryan.homeserver.com/ga...otos/input.jpg


And after computing I get the following:

https://brandtryan.homeserver.com/ga...alculating.jpg


I basically have no idea what I'm doing--just now trying to learn basics about celestial nav. But from what I can tell--does this mean I am basically 90 nm east of where I thought I was?(assuming SHV is not introducing problems, etc.)

Also--if it was working okay--shouldn't the sun be bearing 200 True, instead of my 240 True?

Also--I don't know what value to put for He--it defaults to 10 feet, and one would think if that is off, then it will hose all my data?

For me, this is what sims are all about :)

Done. Will be available in v5.7.0 :up:

Fixed problem with lattitude and longitude mixed up (lattitude was saying W or E instead of N or S )

@ SashaKA001 - time problems you reported via PM have been fixed. Editing of navigation fix text hasn't been coded in yet.

1) For polar star the latitude should be = sextant meter.
For sun it should be 90-sextant meter.

(At north pole the polar star should be 90, sun 0)

But... looking on your screen I'm not sure that "0" at sextant meter is on horizon. It looks like "0" is at bottom on screen...

2) I'm not sure that SH series keep Earth inclination, and different heigh for sun at summer/winter, so the our "technology toys" are not good idea to use.

3) We should calculate the height of sun at noon, not at 13.51 (to keep max height of sun).

4) Finally I think about zoom for sextant scale to keep more precision for horizon line and sun/polar star height. It should looks like binocular.
Possible? I don't know...

anything is possible but I don't understand what you mean by zoom for sextant scale :06:

in the \data\Sea\ folder lists all the ships. If you open up a ship's folder you'll find a x_sil.dds (x being class of ship). This image is used (same image used for SOAN).

Dash can be added. Simple edit of menu.txt can accomplish this. Same thing for m/s. Can't remove the rain as it's part of the string in the menu.txt file.
