Mosaic Panels Moving

mBuxx

Hello. I am sure I’m doing something incorrectly, hoping for some input here. I set up a mosaic in plan mode, save my plan, everything looks good. I start the plan session. My problem is, as the week goes by, all my panels move. From a nice gridded overlap, to a jumbled mess. Into which positions there is no way if I proceed with the plan, the mosaic will work.

Hello, in SkyAtlas of Plan Mode, the program only memorizes the position of each target in the sky. Then draw the FOV (red and gray boxes) based on the focal length of this shot, the camera sensor, and the solved camera angle.
The situation in the picture is because the solved camera angle is different from the previous camera angle, so the simulated mosaic FOV is different from the previous one.
The camera was rotated after the last shot. It is recommended that you check the camera angle of the two shots (Files Management - Images Management - onpen previous shoted image - [ℹ️] icon in the upper right corner).
Or you can go to Files Management - Images Management - select the last captured image - GoTo. After GoTo succeeded, the deviation between the current FOV angle and the last FOV angle will be calculated.

Ah shoot, okay. This makes sense. The target does not come over the horizon until the middle of the night. So I haven’t actually plate solved that image before starting the plan. I just checked now that the plan is running and all is good.
