3. Moving the Meridian flip code that affects guiding to the guider where it makes more sense.<br />
<br />
The <span style="padding: 0 2px; color: #333333; background: rgba(251, 175, 175, .7);">auto-star </span>changes were necessary because users reported that when using Ekos remotely controlling PHD2, but not using the autostar option,<br />
after a meridian flip, the previously selected lock position is of course no longer valid, but Ekos still tries to make it use the previously selected star which moved.<span style="padding: 0 2px; color: #333333; background: rgba(251, 175, 175, .7);"><br />
So rather than trying to calculate the new star position based on a previously selected guide star, I believe it is better to just let</span><br />
