time zone and time in lockon

[borchi_2b]

hi guys, a friend of mine and i have just thought about something we are wondering about.

we locked at a map of world wide timezones.

we figured that the crim is 2 hours ahead of the greenvich time and the kaukasus is 3 hours ahead.

the time shift is directly the kerch strait so how is it with lockon, is this affecting lockon in some regards?

 

i think it is more intersting then the question about the performance of an aim 120c

It can affect sunrise and sundown timings for a particular time of year. You can use LoCFG to adjust date, but sunrise and sundown timings are a bit off. I on't believe it's dawning at 9:15 AM in Krasnodar on April 14th...But I'll never know, I still wasn't there IRL.

Time zones aren't considered in our sim's world. I have some additional info on my home computer. I'll post it, once I'm home tomorrow and can retrieve it.

Thanks Ironhand, I believe you have sunrise and sundown times for each day in LOFC.

...I believe you have sunrise and sundown times for each day in LOFC.

Well, not for each day. I'm not that masochistic. However:

 

 

When I did this, I simply used 5 minute increments. "True" sunrise/sunset will be within a few minutes of the specified times. Also, the times given represent sunrise/sunset at sea, not over land.

 

At the time I was curious to see, if the times matched anything I could find for the area. They appear not to. OTOH, you can see # of daylight hours available lengthen or shorten depending on the season.
