Hi Pasha,

It's not that I need it, but it would resemble the reality more.
The Sun and the Moon (and the planets as well) follow the same 'track', the ecliptic.

Since you've changed and inproved this for the moon, it would be logical to change it for the sun also.
If you think it wouldn't be an improvement for the sun, then I could live with that :)

Thanks anyhow.

I still don't understand, Fred.
Sun is moved in YoWindow according to the real astronomical formulas.
It is already done.

However the Sun display is corrected because we want Sun always in screen boundaries when it is clear.

The feature about the Moon was to rotate its image according to astronomical formulas.

Oke,

But the moon also uses a wider part of the screen.
I think that would also be nice for the sun.

That's an interesting point!
A long while ago we have shrinked Sun path to make sure the tree on the Village landscape does not cover it.
Now there are 3 animated and more than 1000 picture landscapes.
I think we have to reconsider this decision with Yura.

I understand Pasha,

Don't forget I said I can live with the way it is right now.

Thanks for considering.
