Thank you so much David :cheers:

Artlav, would it be possible to put a timer in the Aerial state hold autopilot? That way you could for instance set the autopilot up to takeoff, climb to a certain altitude and fly a certain heading for a specified amount of time before switching to a different autopilot to reach orbit. If time...

I honestly don't know. If it's any indication alpha 100319 did not appear to have the same problem, only earlier builds. I must admit I didn't pay any attention to it once i stumbled on the fix. Since no one else mentioned it I figured it was a problem my end. I had a feeling that might be...

I've had a similar problem just after installing each new alpha version although it only affects runway_off sequences. The UAP says it is running but nothing happens. My trial and error fix, which is not very scientific and may have redundant steps but always seems to work, is a follows. 1)...

Using alpha 100318-1 I've been furthering my experimentation with with launching the Shuttle A from KSC. At the moment it is not possible to launch into a specific orbital plane unless there is already a vessel orbiting in that plane for the autopilot to use as a target. My testing has...

Just tried it and it worked great, exactly what I'd envisaged. Thank you :thumbup: The Hohmann autopilot worked very well using the demo scenario, putting the DG into lunar orbit without issue even with me using up to 1000x time compression for some of the trip. Unfortunately the align planes...

That's great news, thanks!

Understood, thanks. I have a strange request. Would it be possible to have an autopilot that did the following? In a specified amount of time it would pitch the vessel to a specific angle. In that same amount of time it would throttle two different engine groups linearly a specific percentage...

I've been playing around with the tools autopilot, in particular the key press one. It does not appear to accept key presses such as "[" or "]" or any other of orbiters default autopilots. Also it does not appear to distinguish between the numpad numbers and numbers on the top of the...

Just tried the Mission-from runway to ISS scenario. When I initially start the scenario the autopilot will cut out after a few seconds and the engines will stop. There does not appear to be any pattern to the cutoff since I have a different velocity each time, but consistently don't get to V1...

Just did a bit more testing, using the Air-Dg from runway to orbit scenario I got into orbit fine (200km circular orbit). I then cleared all the sequences and tried to use the attitude sequence to hold either a prograde or retrograde attitude. The retrograde did not work at all, as in the DG...

I've been trying the demo scenarios one by one and all seems to be working well. I especially loved the Launch Many from the Moon scenario, one of the coolest things I've seen in orbiter :thumbup: Now I need to read the manual and find out how to do it myself.

I agree with Yoda. Your Shuttle Fleet and Rob Conley’s Mercury and Gemini are what got me into Orbiter in the first place. There are of course many wonderful addons for orbiter today, but to me these addons will always be held in high regard. Thank you. :cheers:

I noticed the same thing happen when I did not have T&L HAL selected under video options. Using HAL only resluts in a crash. using T&L HAL results in no problems. Stangely this is the only addon I have that crashes when using HAL only. Hope this helps.

This is great! The DGIV needs a rover capability and this is perfect :thumbup: No problems here.
