Solved weird clock
-
<p>What’s weird? The hour hand points at the correct hour, so in that respect it isn’t “wrong”.</p>

<blockquote>@Gear5 actually those 4 iron antennas are what is known as the bird slicers. If you see those, then more than likely the aircraft is able to interrogate and IFF. Those are the antennas for the AIFF system. That is a way you will know your aircraft can receive IFF transmissions or only send out. <br /><br />it is a mod that is capable on all Block 40, 42, 50, and 52 F-16s. Funding is what is stopping it from being installed. It is for sure on all the Block 50/52s. I have seen some on the Block 42s, and even the Block 30s with updated SCU upgrades.<br /><br />they can be put on Block 40s, but I had not seen it in the 16 years I was in the Air Force. I know when I was at Kunsan, we did not have them and I know Aviano does not have them either<br /><br /></blockquote><p><br />Also, FYI the F-18c has the bird slicers, and the F-18e,f, and g have the pizza box ;)</p>

<p>@Tiger-0 look at the picture again. The hour hand points at 7… but it should be pointing at 8 because the minute hand is at 59.</p>

<p>@Gear5 I paid attention on that antennas, no worries.<br /><br />Other stuffs they can be fixed will be fixed. It’s a good politic as all Devs are doing since years. If something it’s missed will be filled. With calm for Devs and patience for Users. <br /><br />Time will say, as always.<br /><br />Best regards and thanks for report<br /><br /></p>

<blockquote>@SOBO-87 I think @Tiger-0 is saying that the actual time is 7:59 exactly what the clock is displaying. If the hour needle was at 8 then one might read it as 8:59.</blockquote><p><br />No, the clock is displaying 6:59. If you showed 100 people a photo of that clock they would all say it was 6:59. Just like if the hour needle was pointed at 8 they would also all say the time displayed was 7:59. <br /><br />If the minute hand is 1 minute before the hour, you then look at the hour hand and it tells you what hour it’s before. For an analog clock to work any other way is totally unintuitive and confusing.<br /><br />To say it’s “technically correct” is to also ignore that it would be the only analog clock in the world to work this way.<br /><br />Not that I think it’s a big issue in the sim, I never use it.<br /></p>

<p>@dema good, glad to know.</p>

<p>@Gear5 thanks for the report. But please, keep your tone down.<br /><br />Although this is a minor issue, I agree that we should take care of it. I added it to our internal bugtracker.</p>

<p>Gear5 is not a native English speaker, and his “tone” is sometimes misunderstood.<br /><br />Following his body of posts, he actually seems like a nice (though straight-shooting) dude.<br /><br /><br />He may SOUND as though he is being offensive, but - his INTENTION is not always so.<br /><br /><em>(He is also a welcome rampaging bloodhound with bugs.)</em><br /><br /><br />With regard to his “turn of phrase”, please give the chap the benefit of the doubt before piling on.<br /><br /><br /><br />Ara-Older-Wiser-Gentler-Gorn</p>

<p>Tone is one thing… And we all agree on the fact that a majority of us are non native English speakers…<br /><br />Behavior is another…</p>

<p>Agree.<br />And <strong>this last one</strong> drives straight to the main matter of anytime in all virtual communities of any kind became critical nowadays, I guess.<br /><br />With best regards.<br /></p>

@Stevie said: It’s supposed to move like any regular cock and not “jump” at all…
I only returned here for this quote.
Perhaps the finest typo for years…!
Mind you, mine hasn’t jumped very well for a few years now…
