    General Question Does anyone know a farther zoom in mod?

    sorry to suggest lua again, but for this small things I think it is ideal. If it's just to have a look and not for a persistant mode you can set manually the size of the object. open the lua console and type v=vessel.get_focusinterface() original_size = v:get_size() v:set_size(0.1) Do not...

    General Question Does anyone know a farther zoom in mod?

    If I may add something, I would do something simple but effective: I would use the simple lua function. so here's how I would do: - open the function menu - open the lua console window - type oapi.set_cameraaperture(0.1*RAD) 0.1*RAD (0.1 degrees but needs to be multiplied by RAD to get...

    Updates Boeing's CST-100 Starliner

    I have to say that it is quite surprising to me. I know I know, flying in space is very difficult, etc etc, but still this capsule was not developed in six month in a rush but in many years, and with modern tech I was expecting some minor glitches with some fixes here and there as usual with a...

    Project VesselBuilder for Orbiter

    Hi Don, I really want to fix it, but I remember it was really hard for me to understand what would have been the right behaviour. There is something wrong, it feels like a bug in SC3 that became a feature in this regards. I will go back to it. If you have more examples of what you want to...

    Project VesselBuilder for Orbiter

    Hi guys, I have no idea of why but I received today all the notifications for the questions on this post... sorry to those who were waiting for answers... but here they are: I think it is possible already, isn't it? if you go to the Thrusters section and click "Exhausts and Stream" then you...

    Question Help with few German words

    I thought it was just the t-tray. It s the lowest part of the car so as long as the car goes down a couple of centimeters it starts to touch the asphalt. But of course it coud be also some other part that flew there due to the damages, hard to say

    Question Help with few German words

    My best guess is that the cars were already really low over the asphalt at 320 (in the main straight they usually made sparks by their own). so the front tire without pressure and still the high downforce due to the speed pushed the car even further down. that's what it seemed to me.

    Question Help with few German words

    from watching very carefully the onboard from leclerc I could notice that basically the two tires compressed up until the tire walls of one car touched the rim of the other. This moved the tires from their rim. Being leclerc on the straight its front right stayed there for another 200 meters...

    Question Help with few German words

    that is actualle even more: the the two surface are going one against the other at 644 km/h. That is surely something that made the contact even much worse. I didn't mention it because of the following reasons: - studying the dynamics of the tire of leclerc in the instants after the contact you...

    Question Help with few German words

    Thank you very much guys! this was very helpful! For those interested I made a small analysis about the incident not to get whose fault was but to figure out why what seemed such a small touch resulted in double DNF. Here's my video: and the full article with the analysis (it's in italian...

    Question Help with few German words

    Hi guys, I know that some of you here are native german speakers. In the recent Brazilian GP of Formula 1 Sebastian Vettel let himself shout some words in German on the radio after his collision with Leclerc. Here's the video: I used google to translate the words but I need to be sure...

    Project Apollo Collaborative (Vessel Builder + Multistage)

    there should be the backup text file. in the Orbiter_root\Config\Vessels\VesselBuilder\ folder there should be a file txt name with the same name of the vessel with a "_BACKUPS.txt" end that should contain the whole history of the vessel, so even if you crashed there must be a more recent...

    Hi as far as I know the missing mesh issue is related to spacecraft modules, who look for the Virtual Cockpit mesh even when it is not defined. However, I noticed this in the log: Module multistage2.dll ....... [Build ******, API 050206] you are not using multistage2015 but the old...

    The Starlink Satellites

    Project Apollo Collaborative (Vessel Builder + Multistage)

    maybe 4throck is using complex mode? just guessing, I have no idea why the performance could be so different TBH it is more an Orbiter bug, but I can see if I can find a work around. VB uses simply the oapi function GetAltitude() but it returns altitude above mean radius. I need to find a way...

    since there isn't an official release of VB yet of course there is no problem in including it. :thumbup: When the F1 season will be over and before the new one starts I have the completion and release of VB in schedule. At that time it won't be mandatory but strongly suggested to post the link...

    Project Apollo Collaborative (Vessel Builder + Multistage)

    I know, don't worry at all! I was just saying that among all the situation, that is the one that fits best the AP, so suggesting to give a second look at the numbers just to be sure. that's it, no stress :lol: :cheers:

    Project Apollo Collaborative (Vessel Builder + Multistage)

    I jump in just to remark that it s a bit surprising that the guidance brings down performance of the saturn rocket. The design of the guidance system strongly fits that kind of rocket and that kind of ascent profile. Basically i started to code it from the apollo paper relevant to it... so i...
