Hello all; after Publish 69 I seem to have been having intense difficulty following courses from maps aboard my ships, and I was wondering if anyone else has seen this? In particular, the tiller now seems to prefer to sail along the X and Y axis of the world when given a diagonal course, rather then in straight lines between mapped points... by which I mean, if he/she has a course plotted with Point 1 in Britain docks and Point 2 on Fire Island, he'll sail all the way pure East first, then South past Sea Market and down to Fire rather than sailing in a direct line South-East (passing Magincia etc)
This means he'll often run into islands you've plotted a course to avoid, and would have avoided pre-patch, and makes navigating in the southern waters in particular much more frustrating.
Also, his memory seems to be much shorter now, as he is constantly forgetting he's seen a map. At first I thought it was because I'd recalled off briefly and taken the map with me; but leaving it in the hold which used to work didn't keep him focused, nor did my staying on the ship with my map in my pack prevent it; he would constantly sail to Point 1 when told to "Start" and then just keep going in a straight line from there, forgetting he'd got a Point 2...
And whilst I'm here checking for potential bugs... has anyone else seen in the EC that the "Start" command when dragged into a macro now actually says "Forward Left" instead?
