owkaaay... did you know that you even cant do that in real life. I'll try to explain it sice everyone is tellling his problem instead of explaining it why it is so.

 

 

 

well in the real world you cant even point the real North with your compas, and why not ? a compas is told to point always to the north but it's kinda fals. In reallity a compas points to the "Magnetic"Northpole, it pulls the compas to that point and the "Magnetic"North isnt perfectly on the top (North) of our world.

 

Meaning that NORTH is the top of the world and using the compas means pointing a bit near the top of the world.

 

 

 

that's why all the buildings in runescape are pointed to the NORTH, but we are using a compas that's poining to the "Magnetic"Northpole and it resulted in that buildings and our compas aren't aligned with eachother...

Actually, there are two places in the world where a compass will in fact point to "Perfect North" instead of "Magnetic North". One of these places is the Bermuda triangle, I'm not sure where the other is, but I imagine it's the place on the exact opposite side of the world from the Bermuda Triangle. But other than that you are correct.

 

 

 

I remember getting the Runescape map aligned North used to be very easy, then they altered it in an attempt to impeded macroing players who's programs used the mini map to navigate to the bank and back when mining coal for example. By putting the mini map slightly off centre every time you log in, it completely messed up the programs coding and they had to be remade or something. Interesting story behind it anyway.

 

 

 

I think I got the map aligned once, but the compass is easy peasy :)
