For anyone interested, I made a long post about why the career-mode winds are doing what they’re doing and how to get better insight in order to make good decisions, along with ideas for improvement.
It includes an update about some more recent findings that actually make some sense as to the way it’s designed to be implemented. Hopefully it’s useful to some of y’all.
Note that it doesn’t exclude the possibility of some bugs that still exist. Those should still be reported, but you can at least compare what’s happening in the sim, to what the sim thinks it’s supposed to be giving you, to what’s happening in real-life (historical) weather before doing so.
