Correcting the dates

Increasing the precision moved the phase calculations to the right months for this year. However, while the dates shown for the "Next" full moon are in the correct month, they are still two days early. Will have to work on it some more late tonight. Mikado282 (talk) 07:06, 1 June 2015 (PDT)

The game's Full Moon event indeed ended some time on June 1, 2015 (before 11:25 UTC), which was before the actual full moon of June 2, 2015 16:19 UTC. So, there is the appearance that the game's event is running on a shorter cycle than the real moon's. I have returned the divisor back from 29.530588853 to the status quo 29.5. However, the Fmp-based calculations led the game's calculations by a noticeable amount, so I would still like to see just when the game event happens in the future. True, not very important, but some people do notice that the game and the wiki do not match the real lunar cycle. Mikado282 (talk) 05:08, 2 June 2015 (PDT)
