Indeed, blame me. There was one for a while, but most of the time, it ended up being a lot of CPU to generate a blank globe. Now, it'll probably be a lot less CPU to generate a blank globe, and that's OK. Note that the view is dynamic, though -- the globe will move about as the centre of gravity of the monks moves about. There's a bit of a dodge there to keep the view from going polar, both because it just looked strange to me, and because the cloud map is glaringly bad at the poles... but it will freely rotate east-west -- you aren't being unfairly not shown, there just aren't many of you.

That should, in theory, do it -- I don't really know; almost by definition, I'm asleep when that happens. Back in the day, I tried a number of ways to make the positioning less annoying for those that live a fair ways away from other monks. I'm afraid I didn't find anything that worked well. bart could recreate the antipodian view; it's probably no longer prohibitively CPU-expensive. Other then that, it's just a matter of waiting until there's enough weight of aussies and kiwis to pull the viewpoint in your direction, I'm afraid.
That, or register a bunch of sockpuppet accounts.
Joking!

I blame Christopher Columbus.
If we all still believed the earth was flat, this would not be a problem. But noooooo, he had to go and prove go the damned thing is a sphere. | [reply] |
