North star

Not really useful with the ever ready compass, but still cool, IMO.

The W shape you see in the middle is the constellation Cassiopeia. I've seen others but haven't had a chance to take screenshots. The point is the sky is accurate enough to navigate by.

If you draw an imaginary line between the two farthest starts in the W, and move up 90 degrees, you have the North Star. Always.

Nerd out.

The tides and moon cycles are accurate as well.

See the ladder training tutorial, it then activates a special coding within game so you have better Trip percent chance when climbing a ladder
