Weather - Wind Direction

Post by Tabarnak »

Hi all,

i would like to predefine the weather of my next SEOW campaign. But I don't understand if the value of the field "Actual_WindDirection" in the table Sector_Weather means the direction from which the wind comes or where it goes. Now this is quite important especially when the campaign includes aircraft carriers :wink:

Thank you in advance for your answers.

Hi Tabarnak,

The SEOW convention is that the orange arrow points into the wind. Equivalently, a wind direction of 270 ° means that the wind is blowing from the west to the east.
