    Sounds like you fell victim to the reverse coordinates - I did the same thing the first time.

    Yeah, loads of guys from the US were popping up in Asia as you need -ve longitude. So I added a box saying are you in the US so that if ticked then it made sure it was -ve. The odd thing is that people from Brazil, Spain, most of Britain and everywhere else outside of US with -ve coods don't seem to have any issue with it. So ill flip the sign on Rythals. Anyone else found themselves on the wrong side of the meridian ?

    It's mostly because we're dumb Americans Just when you think it's foolproof God goes and invents us to act as beta testers so that we can screw it all up.
    If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.
