Real Navigation with SH4

Is the concept of using a sextant inside SH4 given up ??

I have redone the draggable sextant so it works in SH4 ver. 1.4 and with any patch on request (i just need some files from your install and plug new values for the cameras.dat, scene.dat and menuxxx.dat unless you want to hassle with that your self)

If we can live with using the 30 most (or lowest) degrees of sky then we can make a pretty precise overlay for the sextant covering 30 degres of sky over your total screenheight. Thus making it much more precise then before(twice the precision pr. pixel)

So is the problem with the stars that they just do not show the right place or is it that the timing on the watch is not good enough(second hand missing)??

I have found that using the draggable sextant (moves with the stopwatch) at the deckgun position works pretty fine as it is stabilized and enables good reads. Problem is the sextant has very thick lines for the readings and no intermedient ticks to cover more precise readings. Correct me if im wrong in my memorys here please - i just "surfaced" in the SH4 world again after a longer brake....
