Howdy, Ischo

Yep, still hangin' in there.

I have no probs with SH4. Crossed several time zones and results were rock solid.

In the middle of an SH3 patrol now, heading SWxW out of Lorient for BE86 in a typ9. I'll test that anomaly out shortly. Is there any particular Latitude were that shows up in game, or is it a fact all along the meridian 50W?

I really don't believe that it will present a problem as no matter where your boat is in the game, "Phython" looks at the geo coords of where it really is via the SH3 file in the documents section of the computer's files. The player usually has no knowledge of where his boat is in terms of geo coords as the player only sees KM grids. The game, however, is dealing with geo coords.

The name I've saved for my first patrol using this setup is "100". When I follow the directory path in my computer via the "SH3" doorway, the file name "100.map" is the one that Python uses to setup Stellarium to display what the uboat/sub sees on the F4 screen.

I'll let you know what happens.

PS stellarium.org is working now.

Cheers,
