Compass angle in Map view is wrong #133

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Enter Map view and observe the small compass in the top left corner

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Compass should point towards the target and not the completely opposite
direction. 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.0.1 (Currently latest market version)

Please provide any additional information below.
I'm located on the EAST side of the globe (south Korea to be exact), so my
longitude and latitude are positive which could probably lead to this kind
of miscalculation, if you've been developing from e.g. the US. Both the
full screen compass and big compass in the "log DNF" etc screen works
properly. But the small one in the Map-view doesn't.

The compass angle is (360°-v) . So, if 90° is correct, it calculates 270°.
0° => 0°, 180° => 180°, but 45° => 315°.

The compass in the MapView should be pointing towards N/S, not the target.
