I'm curious, for everyone that's been able to build and run an x64 build of Orbiter, has there been a performance improvement, or are we nowhere close to even thinking about that yet?

Wouldn't this be more on the vessels themselves though? What if there's a docking system that incorporates three stages of docking? A very soft capture, soft capture, then hard dock? Or what if we're doing more of a science fiction ship and the handwaved explanation is the soft and hard dock are...

Two quick questions entirely unrelated to each other. What ist he current status of ORB:Connect especially in regards to Orbiter 2016? It seems the versions I've found (2.1 is latest?) are for Orbiter 2010 so maybe I'm missing something? Second, was there at one time a remote MFD program...

Yes, exactly! Why not? Thrust commands in Orbiter can be treated as a VECTOR3 of the values for how much thrust each axis should provide. So full pitch up would be (1,0,0), full pitch down would be (-1,0,0), half thrust roll would be (0,0,0.5) etc. If you're mixing pitch and roll or yaw and...

I hit the same problem when I was working on the same thing. You're right, mixing the roll with pitch and/or yaw is tricky. On its own, roll is inverting the direction the other engine gimbals on the axis. That part is fairly simple, use two separate rotation matrices and invert the sign of the...

Yes, d is the angle, keep in mind I believe those functions need the angle in radians. When you say input level, I assume you mean "if it's full up pitch (1) then rotate the full 10 degrees up, if half down pitch (-0.5) then rotate half down?" If so, then you'd "map" the input level to degrees...

It's been a very long time since I did this, I attempted to implement thrust vectoring on both my Solar Service Module and my Prometheus launcher. But I believe, what you would actually need is a rotation matrix. As I recall, you would multiply the rotation matrices for each axis by your...

A good article that quite nicely sums up why the current response in the U.S. isn't the right one: https://zerohedge.whotrades.com/blog/43910127594?fbclid=IwAR2kukeySpYNJwf-K497IYY3yWSxJgG4NdZbOaw_0VlWbeFFc3KQo4MG3LE

Ok, I'm going to be blunt, I trust neither the cdc nor the who over this insanity. Why? Their data doesn't add up. Fact: For most people it manifests as a bad cold and nothing more Fact: In many people there may be no symptoms period Fact: We're told this is serious because it has a much higher...

I saw this today. WOW! I personally think that the problems this movie had, were mainly because of the problems of 8. In other words, in 8, the story got written into a corner, and they had to spend time in 9 writing themselves out of those corners. I also feel that certain critical plot points...

Does anyone know if any theoretical work has been done on the effects of a relativistic large-scale collision? Like if an asteroid were accelerated to 99.999...% light speed and slammed into a planet? The backstory. In a Star Trek Enterprise novel I'm reading, a major plot point centers around...

What do you think is bad about it? (not arguing, genuinely curious to know your thoughts)

Most of the use cases I'm seeing aren't really for desktop computing. The 3b+ I have serves as a wireless SDR signal relay in my truck. Its built-in GPIO and other communication protocols are useful for a multitude of embedded and headless applications such as home automation, remote sensing...

Um, I hope it's ok to post here, things were going ok until I realized I needed to normalize my data and I'm a bit stuck. I created a stackoverflow question that sums up my issue. It's probably something stupid I'm just missing...

Or just any C++ libraries that are faster than Python? Preferably as easy as Keras? Really starting to feel the performance problems now :uhh:
