thyro · 02-11-09, 12:45 PM

Hi,

Is there a way for day/night time remain stead when time speed is increased?

I mean set it over 1000 and soon AM is in the afternoon and PM is in the morning.

Is there something that fix this matter?

Cheers

The time listed is always Pearl Harbor time (or Greenwich Mean Time - I forget which). The time seems off because as you cross the ocean into different time zones the clock stays with the original time. If you hold the cursor over the clock it will show the local time as well.

D'oh!!!

Many thanks for the insight

Time zones don't explain day and night completely flipping around. There seems to be a bug, which often seems to be related to using high TC, that screws the day/night cycle. AFAIK nothing to do about that other than avoid using high TC. How high is the limit, I don't exactly know.

I never go over x32 and I've gotten that bug on at least two patrols. And it is a bug ... 'though I have no idea what causes it.

Weird indeed then. I always use 1024 on long transfers and 256 while hunting, and I've never seen that one

Another thing is that base time and "local time" are always the same.

How can you find time to play w/o going over 32x TC? I think I'd still be working at steaming out of the harbor if it were not for TC.
