#LEM rotated incorrectly within S-IVB

Currently the docking attitude offsets for Apollo T&D appear to be R: +50, P: +180, Y: 0 but according to the actual checklists they should be R: -60, P: +180, Y: 0

To make matters more confusing our current T&D checklist lists it is R: -130, P: +180, Y: 0

According to @void zodiac this may have been a hack related to some of the older attitude control logic.

If for some reason we can't rotate the LEM into the correct orientation could we update the incorrect offsets in the checklist?

Hey! We sure can but I will address the LM rotation and get the checklists updated related to this.

I've tried this 4-5 times since then and +50, doesn't really seem to work, neither does -130. I'm not sure what the exact rotation is. Though I'm starting to suspect there might be a bigger issue at play somewhere because it seems to change every TLI.
