Hi all.
After having passed all the P22's with flying colors, most of them with single digits results (0000x) now this...
Whatever I do, I have huge results from the P23 where you have to align star 21 with the near horizon of the moon.
from the star's perspective, the near horizon is actually dark? but when doing a p23 with the far horizon (R3 220), results aren't better.
doing a state vector update and a p52 just before the p23 also doesn't help.
I did notice that when finished the auto mnvr (50 18), the sextant is quite far from the moon. this was also the case when I did a SV update and P52 just before the P23.
So this is how i do things: after the auto mnvr I make sure the optics are zeroed and then I mnvr the CSM with the RCS until the moon is in sight of the sextant. then I mark. then trunnion bias will be all 00000 then I do PRO, which will point the optics to the star (21 in this case), then i press V and the star will already be very close to the moon. then I use WASD to align the star with the lunar horizon.
am I doing something wrong? I literally reran it for 50+ times with achieving semi-good results (2 digits, 000xx) only once. otherwise my results are in 3-4 digits.
I attached a save file. maybe something got corrupted again? It should be fine this time as I didn't have any restarts and I didn't use more than x10 time compression.
I hoped I could solve this one on my own, but it seems I'm stuck yet again...
