Default Strange Time Zone

I started a campaign in 1942, driving a IXC. GWX. First mission is to the coast of USA. Having crossed the ocean, it now gets light about noon, and gets dark about midnight. It's February!

I was also curious to know if SH3 modelled sunrise/sunset vs longitude.

your clock is set to the Berlin time zone... if you put your mouse cursor on the clock it will say local time above the clock.

Im guessing when you are seeing 12:00 midnight on the clock the local time off the US east coast is something like 5 or 6pm. therefore when your sub's clock says midnight the sun would just start setting off the US east coast.

but when your clock says 12:00 noon, you should start seeing sunrise on the US east coast.
