So I've been talking to Woo482 over in Orbiter-Radio, and we started tossing the idea around for a succession fort for the newest version of Dwarf Fortress. Toady's been doing some work, and has now included vampires, minecarts, and other FUN. We'd be using the Masterwork Mod, which includes...

Just stumbled on this last night. Basically, you fly a probe around to various locations inside a massive game universe, and help repair stations to become your new "home in space". I'm also not exaggerating when I say massive at all. The developer simulates an environment of...

I'm sure many of us have heard of Folding@Home, and its goals. Foldit tries to accomplish the same thing, but it instead puts the job in your hands. It presents you with a protein, and it asks players around the world to fold it into the best shape. This isn't just restricted to some made up...

link As much as I love EVE-Online, am I the only one who finds it a little sad (or amusing) that its being reported by the BBC? Glad I never invested in this bank.

I just re-downloaded Vespucci D a little bit ago, but I'm noticing that there is a flashing message at the bottom of my screen, telling me that the vessel does not use the newest version of Orbiter Sound, and that it needs to be updated. Now, I know that Vespucci won't be updated (given the loss...

I flew one of the best missions of my Orbiter career last night. I started off from Wideawake in an XR2, and after a beautiful ascent, I was in orbit in record time (managed to keep the SCRAM going for longer then I ever have before). Once there, I did a bit of thinking, and decided that I had...

Maybe I'm a little slow on the uptake, but I noticed something last night while planning a trip. As I was searching for good intercept dates for Mars, I was noticing that as I was messing with the Target Intercept date, EjA and InA were changing, and when they reached their lowest, it was in...

I've been in the stages of planning a Space Station to be used as a refueling station for exploration of the outer planets. The current idea is to haul some SBB 4.1 pieces out to Jupiter using an XR5, although I'm open to ideas. What I've been wondering is, should I place the station in Jovian...

I got the November issue of Maximum PC today, and was suprised to find Orbiter included in the CD they pass out with every issue. Because of this, Orbiter should get some decent exposure. I guess we should start awaiting the swarm of newer players.

I am wondering if its possible to modify the colors in the built in Orbit MFD. The reason for this is I find it difficult, if not impossible, to differentiate between my orbit, and the target orbit (I am color-blind, so the colors are identical to me).

As someone who's still new to Orbiter (I've been to Mars and landed, but thats with the Go Play in Space tutorial, and LandMFD), I decided to indulge my curiosity, and travel from a Martian Orbit to Jupiter. I mostly followed the Go Play in Space steps for traveling to Mars, and after about 30...
