    From old to new links

    Hi all, I know I'm late to ask for this, and I'm afraid being out of luck, but I'd ask anyway: is there a way to "translate" the links on the old Orbiter Forum platform to the new one? I have an awful lot of links in my old threads on Tuttovola (referring to whole threads/single posts on the...

    General Question Help me - I have a bit of confusion on current/future Orbiter version

    I admit I might have some confusion regarding what is being developed, under what name, etc...but I guess my confusion is only due to my zero-knowledge of GitHub. Excuse me in advance. To get it straight off the way, of course the official current one is Orbiter2016. As Martin said (answering...

    Include Artlav's Autotime in future OpenOrbiter release

    ...Or any other solution to solve the problem of forgetting autopilots on when timewarping = empty tanks. It was (still is) a native option in Dansteph's OrbiterSound, but what if an Orbinaut only installs XRSound? Thanks https://www.orbiter-forum.com/resources/autotime.4618/ PS: is there a...

    Scenario Bases evolving in time

    Hi all, apart from having multiple Orbiter installations with copies of a base (which sounds a bit overkill), is it possible to have a base that evolves with the passage of time? More/different buildings, launch towers, etc? Or is it already possible by editing the scn file?

    New telescope as birthday present to a 10 yo boy

    Hi gentlemen. What would you recommend, as per the title says? No previous experience, very curious. Do you have some suggestions for a decent entry-level telescope but non so entry to be too limiting. Thanks.

    Joni Mitchell's tunings

    Hi all. I guess some Orbinauts play guitar, and maybe, like I do, they also love Joni Mitchell. Well, I've always been puzzled by her many different tunings, and to cut a long story short, I've just made this little Excel file that somehow helps in studying those (or any) tunings. Here's the...

    Reading a sentence by a FOI member written in a post about an Earth-Moon off-plane transfer, namely: made me think that I also often have difficulties in visualizing three-dimensionally what I do (or merely plan to do) in Orbiter, with all these balls tumbling in the Universe!!! And it's a...

    Question What can we do with Lua

    First, sorry for the extreme noobiness of my post/request. I think that I, for one, could really enjoy a very general post in this new Lua subforum where someone presents and briefly explains to those who don't know what Lua is, what can be done with it in Orbiter. I know it's a scripting...
