Default Nautical Mile Distance Chart.

I found this chart that give the distance to different area’s of the pacific. I cleaned it up and formatted it to a larger version and PDF.

I wonder how accurate the game chart is compared to this chart.

Fisrt off nice work !

Your 'chart' is probably more accurate in terms of 'real life' as it is most likely based on conical projection and great circle routes.

SH4's 'world' is flat (shrug).

Still your chart is probably good enough for estimates and 'ball park' figures.
