Re: [guide-user] 46P displays in two different places

Just checked my statement from before and saw that there is a subdirectory _asteroid_ in the guide folder which contains another file with name _cometg.dat_ with the same (?) content like the other one. Here I too set the first line to zero. If this is really necessary I did not examine in more detail albeit I think so.

Hi Ben,
 
I have experienced this problem too and found this solution for me:
There is a file _cometg.dat_ in the guide folder which contains comet data of older dates. I don’t know the exact meaning of this file but it seems to be the culprit for the mentioned behavior. You dont’t need the contents of this file but if it is not present in the guide folde then guide can not be startet. I did not want to empty the file so I set the first line in this file which represents the number of data lines to zero, and voila the confusing display of a comet in a different place was gone.
 
Hope this helps,
