    Gaming Orbital Margins

    I really quite like the idea! My one issue is that if you have only high dices you are disincentivized to spend them on preflight checks or checklists. Maybe burns should have a negative modifier to encourage you to use a checklist?

    Installation Dumbest question in existence: How do i install add-ons (ships, scenery and more)

    New Release D3D9Client Development

    It is with a workaround, but it must be installed on a NTFS filesystem. You need to create symbolic links from the config folder to the /Modules/Server folder.
