First-timer having trouble with Dwarf2

Hi - I just got a dwarf II from a salvage store. Everything seems to be working, but I was having trouble getting it to calibrate last night - It didn't seem able to find anything in the sky (around 10:30 pm in a Bortle 4 area, clear sky.) I'm a total beginner at this so it was probably user error but any tips for getting started would be greatly appreciated! (It didn't come with instructions...)

How do you guys handle QA?

Hi - I've been working on my first game for a while now, and it is starting to feel like it might be something I could release - BUT I'm doing it entirely myself, with only my 11yo son as a tester. It's a pretty big/deep game, and I don't really know how to do QA on it without some critically-minded adults looking at it carefully. I'm on a shoestring budget so I'm wondering if any of you have advice for creative ways to handle testing when you're a solo dev?
