ORBITER-FORUM will be temporarily closed at 2026-07-23 18:00 UTC while we complete some OF maintenance tasks. The amount of downtime is expected to take up to one hour, but probably less.
I've found that sometimes it looks like it's not doing anything but it's actually just waiting on the Azure servers. More than once I've just walked away, made tea and come back to it working.
Yeah, steam is counting the hours that the launcher is running. Not how long the game has been played. There are some players up in arms because of the steam refund policy.

Thanks all!
Hi all,
As I've now got a bit more time on my hands I'm playing around with orbiter again and still trying to get my head around some of the math.
I've got the formula for launching Northeast/on the ascending node for an ISS flyover but what I don't understand is how to change that forumla so...
