Bart created a new topic ' scheduler shouldn't use Kstars time.' in the forum. 3 years ago

The scheduler in Ekos should be indipendent from the time in Kstars. Currently, it is better use system time or make it a configurable option.

When scheduling, I use the 'x > degrees above the horizon' often. To fill in x, I advance the time in Kstars a few hours to seeif this would work, that particular night.
I left the time as it was, not knowing the scheduler actually uses that.
So the schedule was messed up.

Another 'solution' (workaround/ patch) is to set the Kstars time to 'time now' right when the scheduler is started.
Then still, the user shouldn't change the time in Kstars during the session, so not a very good option, imho.

Hope this can be fixed! :)
Cheers guys!
