Lord Hershey Posted May 1, 2021 Report Share Posted May 1, 2021 Could someone explain to me how this exactly works? I used Luna's Google sheets and used the Moon Hot Spot (&lat=-75&lon=58 is 100%) to determine possible hot spots for Mars. I ran all three possible locations and I ended up with 85% effectiveness each. I've never done this before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sauron Posted May 2, 2021 Report Share Posted May 2, 2021 I've never figured out how to work these hotspots other than copying the 100% links from those who know how to do it. I did the same thing you did and came up with the same results. What I can say is:-32.80889 -39.91375 is at 50% 10 -30 is at 50% (replaced expired wonder) Using the Moon coordinate like you did I came up with the same 65, 167. Same 85%. I used the 64 167 and still had 85%. Finally annoyed with my lack of understanding I said oh well and just flung my Colony a bit due north just to see what would happen and came up with Location: 69.05152, 167.68813 giving me 86% effectiveness. When I plugged in what I knew the coordinates would do it just gave me a div/0 error in all the E column cells. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shtanto Posted May 2, 2021 Report Share Posted May 2, 2021 Any sign of the May 2021 coordinates yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lysistrata Posted May 2, 2021 Report Share Posted May 2, 2021 I'm waiting for this as well, but our current coordinates are still 87% effective. Our Guru's may believe that a change is not worth the expense. I would make the change regardless, but I still don't know how to locate 100% myself. Hats off to all those that are attempting this... you are the best of us. I'll check back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shtanto Posted May 2, 2021 Report Share Posted May 2, 2021 Yes indeed, I am eternally impressed at how you're able to figure this out every month. I had a feeling there were some maths involved. 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luna Posted May 2, 2021 Report Share Posted May 2, 2021 Points to try: lat=64&lon=118 lat=64&lon=117 lat=65&lon=117 lat=65&lon=116 lat=62.99999999&lon=119 lat=66.00000001&lon=116 Looks like the Mars longitude bug strikes again (server calculates the latitude normally and gets 64 or 65 for this month, but does something weird for the longitude). But we won't know for sure until someone finds the hotspot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilcroft Posted September 2, 2021 Report Share Posted September 2, 2021 Well dang. I was using an older version of the most excellent spreadsheet, and it didn't have all of the floating point corrections. I believe &lat=- -54.99999999&lon=-87 should be correct for September (based on what the moon folks got), but I can't personally verify it.
