OK, I have an SOS, coordinates 13o59' N 95o58' E.
It's near the server line, so I figure it will be a bit tricky....
I get into the 13s, start inching my way toward just under 96o longitude....
I'm in the mid to high 94s, then bang! Server line.
Moving ONE step took me from the 94s longitude, into around 97 longitude!
I cross back, the situation goes from the mid 96s to the low 94s.
After crossing back and fourth several times, and almost pulling my hair, I finally get as close as I possibly can to 96 longitude, go to the bow of my ship, and cast, at about 96o11'E, and fish up the chest.
Near as I can tell, the actual SOS coordinates DO NOT EXIST, due to the way server lines work. The nearest I can get to the latitude 95o58'E, standing at the nose of my Tokuno ship, is 95o41'E if going West to East, 96o11'E going East to West. (note: at 13o32' Latitude, since you don't have to be right on top of the chest - thank god).
Anyone else seen this kind of wonky behavior?
