It cannot unless you also manually dial in the correct compass offset angle. This is also needed to get the correct compass heading rather than some relative heading. If sensors are parallel or at right angles to the direction of the boat the this offset is 0, 90, 180 or -90.
In the future I intend for pypilot to be able to distinguish because of known boat motions (eg heeling) but this is not easy because of potential false assumptions.
