HarvesteR, because of you and your program, I have not touched Orbiter2010 in months, and am running a large deficit in sleep. Seriously though, fantastic job. :thumbup: I liked your OP too. This is definitely not Orbiter, it is KSP. And while I love the realism and challenge of Orbiter, KSP...

Don't forget Orbitsound 4.0, hosted and created(I think?) by Dan as well. I would also highly recommend the XR series. http://www.alteaaerospace.com/ The DG-IV is a very fine craft, and I really like how it simulates life support and power management systems. It really adds to the immersion...

Even better than what I wanted, with time and date. Thanks.:cheers: P.S. Love that drawing lol.

Just wanted to thank you for the awesome work you have done with the XR-series. Orbiter would not be the same without it ;)

Does anyone know of a chart or site that lists the minimal dV required to transfer to another planet from Earth? Specifically, for using as a benchmark when developing transX plans to gauge the efficiency of a chosen launch window. Or if anyone knows a decent dV to transfer to Venus (what...

I hear yah Urwumpe and fully agree. A linear goal or "mission tree" would not be in the spirit of the literally open-world nature of Orbiter. With the hundreds of awesome addons already developed, I can easily see one focusing on many different areas: cargo, commercial/industrial/residential...

Just found this @ orbit-hangerSpaceTrader Looked it over and it seems to be similar to what kamaz suggested. It incorporates a mission generation system, ship "hanger" for purchased ships, monetary reward and purchase system, and scripted conditions for mission outcome. I believe it uses...

Fully agreed. :thumbup: I remember looking at this addon a while back, and it looked very interesting. So many people have put in hard work to create infrastructure like the item you linked. It only seems natural to link these elements in a way that gives a specific goal, and builds on...

Doesn't the XR series use a config file? At least that is where I always modified the parameters. Or maybe I didn't understand your post.

Regarding upgrades, couldn't this be done via changes in the cfg. file? Things like better ISP, thrust, lower weight, seating capacity, oxygen use, fuel capacity, ect. Providing that it were possible to add a script (if that is the correct word?) which could edit the cfg. upon certain...

"Contrary to popular belief, space is not silent. Stick your head out the window and you will hear Air on the G string." :lol: "Captain! Explain to me how you lost a 100 million dollar spacecraft and scrubbed the entire mission, losing our launch window....on the taxiway!!!!":rant: "Oh...

The largest capital ship is nothing without proper escort and screening. Yamato with her 71,000 ton displacement and 18.1" naval guns would be as potent as a rowboat against a single WWI-era S-boat submarine without efficient destroyer escort. And her depth-charging, deck-launched float planes...

:lol: What can I say? I was the kid who finished his entire pack of Bubalicious/Big League Chew within 5 minutes. :jiggy: My programing is limited to Excel functions and writing high school physics equations on a TI-83+........ But my design/imaginative/creative skills are pretty good. I'd...

This sounds really cool HarvesteR. Checking the demo out now. If it's up my alley, I won't hesitate to purchase the full program. :thumbup: P.S. Glad to see that it is on Steam. I really want to be a cool anti-cooperation person, but I honestly really like Steam a lot. Just can't beat the...

:lol: Agreed.
