Hi VDR, Thank you and sorry for the delay. I just re-found my thread.





The answer to the question in my OP seems to be in the affirmative. I am performing some tests using only CelNav and DR to go from a Point A to Point B. Since I enjoy the realism of TC=1 it will take awhile, but I will report back.



I understand how to use a sextant (I use one in real life), but I am trying to understand how to use it in combination with a chronometer (clock, watch, etc.) to calculate longitude. I think I understand, but I won't know until I can test.

Welcome back Capt Codetrucker.

Very few people use full potential of this single best mod ever developed for any SH game (TDW's Real Navigation) but unfortunately I'm not one of them...

For full hardcore celestial navigation, Sjizzle is your man... Luckily, he's active these days on forum so you may wish to check his threads and ask him few questions...

Happy hunting...and navigating...
