       The   Trustful  Space-Time  Protocol  (TSTP)  allows  for  time 
       synchronization to be performed upon receiving any message from
       another  node  in  a  sensor  network,  removing  the  need for
       explicit  messages.  Previous work has shown that TSTP performs
       well  under controlled experimental environments. In this work,
       we  analyze  how  the  quality  of  synchronization  in TSTP is
       affected  when  nodes are communicating over varying distances,
       and across a temperature gradient. The results show that, while
       distance and packet loss has only a small effect on the quality
       of  the synchronization, high temperatures of 80 Celsius and up
       can   negatively   affect  it.  Snippets  of  the  results  are 
       presented,  along  with  charts, statistics, and an analysis. A
       repository  that  contains all results, as well as the tools to
       analyze them, is available at https://gitlab.com/mathy/PFG.
