Does the Sun ever set in Harpoon?

It has been twilight for four hours?

I have considered that I am above the Artic Circle. How do I find out where I am. I entered my Latitude and Longitude as given by the bearing tool in Google Maps and it said "We could not find latitude 68, longitude -3".

Where am I?

Thanks!

You cannot have a negative value for longitude. I believe that you are 3 degrees West of the Prime Meridian.

For the purposes of the game, negative values for Longitude and Latitude are possible. It just means that a map boundary is on the other side of the Prime Meridian/Equator. You can experiment with values in the Scenario Editor.

This map you sent helped. It was up by Greenland. It's nice to know that death after being sunk was quick and merciful. :)

Did someone find a sweet spot when it comes to these values btw?

I do not understand the question. What 'sweet spot' do you seek? Are you writing a scenario that needs a specific map?
