I just used the obs. scope (running Magui and NYGM) to shoot some stars, and checked them against an electronic almanac of stars at that position at that time on that night (midnight, 31 Dec 1939 passing into 1 Jan 1940)
(haven't fixed my sextant (topside view) in my game yet :P)
and found values within 1 degree (pretty good for the time errors I introduced by finding then shooting the stars)
