Where do I put the sun?

Blitz3D Forums/Blitz3D Programming/Where do I put the sun?

In my baseball game I want a moving sun during the game to simulate the shadows moving across the field. My question is what height to set the sun at. If you think about the trig for a second, The farther away the more realistic the shadows because the angle gets closer to the real angle, but there has to be a point where the angle change is so close that it is realistic. Plus I dont know the effects of putting a light real far away from the current playing field. Thoughts?
