Sorry Sjizzle, I should've been more specific. The noon sightings I understand... it's the Stars, Planets, Moons stuff that makes me scratch my head. I'll have to keep watching those vids, which are really good, until it sets in.

From a procedures standpoint, do you just operate via the noon-time fix and DR? And does that work pretty well for the most part? I'm wondering if drift, currents, etc. are built into the game, TWoS specifically.

Thanks!

Gotcha. How often do you miss your fixes? ie. scattered clouds making you miss the sun overhead, or bad weather? Have you had to go long times with no fixes? That actually sounds kinda fun, but could be a little frustrating. lol
