So chasing drones at 3am I happed to spy the big dipper. Lined up the appropriate stars and aimed my gunsight at the bright light they pointed to. Derned if my compass didn't show "N".

The north star is the tail of the little dipper.  The big dipper scoops the little dipper.  The "w" is opposite the big dipper, pining the little dipper.

.time hour minute time speed (0 is normal time)

I'm pretty sure 1 is normal time. Your "time speed" is, I think, "time acceleration". A value of zero would stop the clock and freeze it at whatever time you set.

I have three 1920 x 1080 screens running under NVidia Surround at 5760 x 1080. The stars are not dots, but ellipsoid blobs. The side-to-side dimension is exaggerated.

Still looks pretty cool, though!  :aok

Judging from Bustr's ss, the elliptical shapes are caused by POV changed from default.  I would imagine as was reported a zoom view would cure that mostly (especially those directly ahead.

Nope.  I have the default FOV and they are elliptical.  If by POV you mean Point of View (vs Field of View) then still no as stars look circular no matter where you look at them from.

Logged on update went fine. Went offline to see the night view, Awesome!!! Did have to adjust the gamma a little so I could see the drones, also noted the scratches on the cockpit glass is very pronounced making it difficult to discern items on the ground. Stars and Planets are a little on the large side and with my FOV somewhat elliptical. :aok

Been a little preoccupied lately but finally ran the last 3 update patches & all went w\o a hitch......................

Went offline & typed in the command & looked thru the cockpit of my Spitty...............

I liked it a lot.......1st thing that came to mind was Star Wars (I have X-Wing, Tie Fighter & X-Wing vs Tie Fighter somewhere around here).......this night sky look is cool looking from the ground......will have to go up & experience it from alt.

Definitely getting there...............

I found that no matter the time of day, the sky color makes it almost impossible to see the aiming circle of the 88 manned gun.

Once the size of the stars is fixed, the night sky will be awesome.

Not a fan of the big blobby stars.  Makes me think of Christmas tree ornaments than stars.  But I like that things are more in their proper place.  Also noticed the moon, or half the moon, was on the southern horizon.

I just started the Alpha with this version and have an issue in setting up X52. No matter what I do, the throttle is reversed, meaning if I have the throttle pushed forward, its idle, pulled back it is full power.  Also flight seems to be real touchy, but I am still tweaking my settings, so that part I may fix... just wanted to let you know about the throttle issue
