Yes but how?
I get a bearing, the lat/long starts heDing in the right direction, then the compass does a 360 flip and I'm heading the wrong direction. I've tried so many combinations now but I can't get anywhere near.
And yes I know I'm an idiot.
Basically:
1.) Use yaw to single out one of the 2 (either latitude or longitude; let's say latitude for this discussion) and move towards the general area. Basically, you want to move your yaw until ONLY latitude is moving up or down. Go at the slowest speed.
2.) Now adjust said yaw to make sure the longitude meter is going in the correct direction as well. Yawing left or right of latitude center should send you heading in the right direction for both latitude and longitude.
3.) If you find you have farther to go in one than the other, adjust yaw accordingly.
4.) Drop down out of orbit somewhere near the coordinates.
5.) Drop to 0 speed and use the compass to understand what direction you're facing. Point in the direction that adjusts only latitude (longitude measurement should remain fixed) and accelerate until you reach the target latitude.
6.) Drop to 0 speed and use the compass to turn 90 degrees so that only longitude is moving and latitude is now fixed...and accelerate. If you're longitude is going the wrong way, flip the ship 180 degrees and accelerate.
7.) Arrive at your destination sooner or later. Sooner if you didn't drift super far away from the destination when exiting orbit.
I'm not sure I can explain it any simpler. It just takes time. Use the compass properly to determine if you are perfectly aligned to east/west or north/south to make latitude and longitude easier to manage and try to drop near the general destination.
