Ok. I think this is just since the new 1.2 patch. But depending on how I zoom in or out, the Docs and other stuff end up off land when they should be on land. Or vice versa...

Here you can see the Docks at Osaka in the middle of the harbor. If I zoom out 2-3 times they will move inland. This is screwed up! It caused me to think I was far from land when I was really near the shore and I ended up running aground in this screenshot.

Actually, I think the docks are in the correct position. It was the land that was 'wrong' because I was run aground on a beach in this screenshot!

I hate to say it, but when in doubt, get the periscope out or just hit f11 to see where the land is.

Since this bug exists, yes, you need to do that. Now I know not to trust the map when I'm near land.

But this needs to be fixed.
