---- I want to make sure if a star wars game is really the thing for me before I purchase trek 2000 or stc. I want to clear the problems i experience while playin the demo of trek 2000. My big problem is: I don't understand how degrees works. I was never taught degrees in school. I feel so desperate about it. When I don't understand something, I sometimes feel my IQ is extremely low. Anyway, let me tell you how I understand degrees then you can correct me. The manual said: 0 degrees is straight up or north, 90 degrees is to the right or west, 180 is down or south and 270 is left or east. Ok, now my compus is showing 270 degrees. If I want to move ahead again, how do I go from here. 0 is north or up. I don't understand. So in other words, if I'm moving my ship 89 degrees does that mean that I moved up or north? Is it correct that from 0 to 89 degrees I'm moving my ship north, then from 90 to 179 I'm moving right or west , and then from 181 to 270 I move down or south? Then from 270 to 360 I move north again. It really confuses me. I know 360 degrees is a circle. When playing the demo of sod, that is quite clear to me. If I turn my character 180 degrees that's a half circle. I just turned the other way. But when moving my ship it's really tricky. How do I compare degrees with units in space. Say for instance my ship is at 1 1. If I move my ship till it is on unit 89 1. 89 for vertical, 1 for horizontal. Since 90 degrees is right or west, does it mean that I can only go north from units 1 1 to 89 1? I don't understand what the manual says: 225 degrees is as many units of space down as it is units of space to the left? 270 degrees is to the left. 180 is down, 270 plus 180 doesn't give me 225. It is much more than 225. It's even more than a complete circle, it gives me 450. So what does it mean, 225 is as many units to the left as it is units of space down? I would appreciate clarity on this! _______________________________________________ Gamers mailing list ..
