    Problem MMu controls won't work

    Hey, I'm fairly new to Orbiter, and am having an issue with the MMu 2.0 in the DVIV and the Arrrow, and XR-5. The problem is all the RCS controls do the same thing. I've read the help on it, and doesn't matter if it's in Rotation or Translation mode, if I select translation, and press 4 it...

    Space Engine – Free Universe Simulator

    Hi, SE works now beautifully. I don't know how many of you have kept up with it. But it's far greater than Celestia on steroids. The TODO list includes: Orbital Mechanics for Solar Systems and Interstellar Travel Procedural Planets, allowing the ability to land on planets complete with...

    How to stop a Rotating Orbit

    Thankyou for the extra info. One thing I failed to mention in the first post, was the main problem with the rotating orbit, was I couldn't catch my Apoapsis. For about 5-10 orbits, the closest I got to it was about 70-90 deg. As it looked like it was going to come around (as it always has...

    Request Suggestion for OVP

    WOW!!!! More than I had hoped for. Could it also have assorted lights around the bases lighting them up (even better, the ability to activate a base/pad from ship - some aircraft have this for runway lights on secondary airports n it's very cool). You have done an amazing job, I've also thought...

    Request Suggestion for OVP

    Hi, I was wondering if the people involved in this, could add some better lighting. ie rentry glow, some lights on Vessels (ie directing from a docking port to light up a target vessels docking port at night). I'm not sure if this sort of thing is within the guidelines of the OVP. I've often...

    How to stop a Rotating Orbit

    Ok, thanks guys. I did eventually manage to dock to the ISS, though it was very hard to control the relative vel, the cross was never anywhere near where it needed to be, and it didn't get onto where it was supposed to be, until I was 20m from docking. Not easy, and took me all night. lol...

    How to stop a Rotating Orbit

    Hi, I'm new here, and new to Orbiter. I can get into Orbit, and have seen the tutorials/playbacks of Syncing an orbit with the ISS. Once my planes are aligned (which they are), I'm supposed to set my PeA to the Altitude of the ISS when it crosses my PeA. My problem is after the plane change...
