Hi Matyas, honestly I don't know why it isn't working for you.

In my copy of GWX, I have a normal progression of changes in the phases of the moon... no problems there whatsoever.
Hi Kptn!

The progression of phase change works fine at me too (the moon cahnges its phase and rises later each day as it should). The problem is that when I load back a saved game, the moon is "reset" to the phase it had at the start of the patrol (regardless of the phase it actually had when I saved the game). That causes the phenomenon that I save a game with a D shaped moon and when I load this save back I saw a C shaped moon on the sky (supposing that the moon had a C shape when I started the patrol.)

So this problem should be tested this way: start a patrol (and check the phase of the moon as soon as possible), go away from the port (to see the horizons and to be able to save), set a high time compression (send the WO and the radio operator to rest in order to avoid their interrupts) and wait for several (e.g. 6-7) days. Then check the shape and direction of the moon on the sky, save the game, then reload the game. If I am right, the moon should disappear from the location where it was and its shape should be set back to the "original" (i.e. it had when the patrol started).

Does it work this way on your PC too? Or really am I the only one struggling with this?

I would really appreciate your feedback

Many thanks in advance.
