Sun shading seems to be later than reality

[malaise]

LNM is connected to XP11, which is in real time.
It is 18:15 local time CEST and 16:15 GMT, so we are far from the sunset.
Still, LNM shows that we are in the night.

[malaise]

Well, this seems to be fixed after starting a new flight (without restarting XP11)
So this is probably a defect in XP11

I'll check but I've not seen a problem so far.

LNM will use current UTC but switch to simulator date and time as soon as it is connected and aircraft is loaded. Maybe this was the issue?

[malaise]

Well this is quite reproducible

I close and restart LNM with no success.
And yes, I checked that XP11 was set to follow real time.

[malaise]

And some minutes later this is correct!

[albar965]

Still cannot reproduce it, sry.

Starting LNM with View -> Sun Shading Time -> Simulator time. Shading is correct.
Start X-Plane with real time tracking and LNM connects. Shading does not change and is still correct.

I'll keep an eye on it.

[malaise]

Me too.
For the general scenario: I can clarify that I start LNM and then XP11 in the morning, I don't stop them, and I observe the problem in the evening.
I will try to identify if the lag is present at the beginning of if it develops progressively.

Thanks for the hint @malaise . I'll check if there is something going wrong over time. I'm already suspecting Marble not updating properly.

This evening the problem occurred again (despite I restarted XP11 at noon).
LNM shading was approx 2-3 hours later that expected. Unfortunately I didn't capture the issue.
But I restarted LNM and the shift was even worth, approx 6hours (capture attached).

[malaise]

I disconnect LNM from XP11 and the shading becomes correct.
I reconnect it and the shading is wrong gain (as the attachment above).

[albar965]

I'll check this but for now I'd like to finish another task.

Attempt to fix but could never reproduce it.
