Good idea, Fullofit, but I am not sure if WOFF follows this time information. I am affraid that WOFF sets the light time (sunrise, sunset) in steps, depending on season, while autumn is october - december, winter is january - march and so on.
Can you give me a favor and make some quick combat mission tests at different dates and seasons at the same morning time to confirm/rebut this theory?

Sure can! Once I get out of my jammies and do some chores.

Edit: but won’t that just give you sunrise date for one day of the season? I don’t think you can select a specific date in QC, only season.

I think Jara meant for you to fly a quick campaign mission, F.

I see, that makes sense. Thanks BuckeyeBob! Looks like Major Test Ickle will have to get up early.

Jara, you can set the time, but for what day? I think it has to be checked in campaign mode. It just may not be always possible, when your missions start after sunrise.

Oh, sorry Fullofit, you are right. I am totaly blind and stupid. banghead I did not realize the most important thing - the days are impossible to select.
I were not ask you for testing then.
But solution exists - you can save the quick combat mission as a scenario, open it in ME, select/verwrite date and time, save and fly it.from scenario folder.

Triple-J, I don’t believe in this for a moment. Let’s just chalk it up to one of those excellent Czech beers too many. dizzy
I’ll see if I can find any days in the career mode with early starts and note the sunrise.

So here's the verdict. Using real data from internet won't work. WOFF uses some other info to dictate sun positioning.

Here's Major Test Ickle on 4 January 1917 at 8:00 am. According to timeanddate.com the sunrise on that day occurred at 8:50 am.

Here's Major Test Ickle taking off on 2 April 1917 at 6:01 am. Sun should be rising at 6:22 am.

Looks like another method needs to be devised to match WOFF sun status.

Jara, we don’t want to be too obvious. It’s part of being barmy.

WOFF UE Mission Editor 1.5.9 released. Download link available here
ME 1.5.9 Revison changes:
1) WeatherMod - implemented BuckeyeBob's Thunder and lightning mod. Thanks Bob. User can enable/disable thunder and his option is saved to Config file. Mission editor also checks the mission date and automatically disables thunder and lightning during autumn and winter periods.
2) Takeoff and landing times - Mission editor adds new feature - sunrise and sunset watchdog. When mission start is 30 minutes before sunrise or mission calculated landing time is 30 minutes past sunset, Mission Editor shows warning window and offers flight plan/time modification.
Sunrise and sunset times are calculated in respect to current date, latitude and longitude, and displayed at top R/H corner of screen. Thanks to Fullofit for his request.
3) Populated airfields - static aircraft use correct skins of units stationed (if free skin slots are available or unit is flying in current mission)
4) Fixed bug in Lonewolf routine, that caused the lone wolf missions did not work if mission was flown with less than 4 units (squadrons).
Enjoy!

There are many things to like in this mod, but the map clarity is one I really appreciate,...is there a way to have a kind of moving map with it when ingame? Asking too much , I know! smile
