(Get the code!)
Thanks for the suggestion. I'm using 0.10.4 on XPSP3 with ATI Mobility Radeon X1400
I start with system_default. Time = 11PM US/Central. Sky is dark
I set time_zone to UTC+6. Time displayed is 23:02. Sky is close but not the same. Vega and Altair are higher in the East. Appears to be off by an hour.
I set time_zone to UTC+5. Time displayed is 23:07. Sky matches system_default.
I set time_zone back to system_default and checked system time. Windows time is GMT-6 US/Central. Daylight Savings Time confusion?
However, the bigger issue is that although the sky changed to match time_zone (more or less), the displayed time always reported system time. It would seem advisable to never change the time zone away from system time.
Yes, I had seen bug 487232 but pressing 8 did not seem to change anything for me.
