Clock (in HUD)


Recommended Posts

I didn't notice this until I tried using the clock myself, but it's in Matt's video too.

 

Watch what happens to the time displayed in the HUD at the 3m35s mark: when minute 42 has elapsed, it doesn't roll over to minute 43, but stays at 42. Keep watching, and at 15 seconds passed the minute, it the changes to minute 43. This pattern repeats every minute.

 

 

I've not tried the clock built into the IFEI yet, it might be the same.

Reminds me of clocks at the train station that stick to 12 for like 3 or 4 seconds every minute... but in this CASE III, it's the ultimate answer to all. Probably works as intended twilightsmile.png

 

Addit: I find it strange that at 00:25 local the zulu time is 13:42. Correlating time zones, the minutes should at least be exactly the same or exactly 30 minutes apart depending on time zones.

There's a couple 45 minute offsets as well out there.

Can't say I've ever paid really close attention to the time of day in the Warthog, but I don't recall ever seeing a TOT error due to adding or losing time. The +/- has never dropped or added whole hours, minutes or gross amounts of seconds that I can remember seeing.
