Been a long time player, but away for a long time. Kerbal and kRPC got me interested in spacecraft coding again.
Picked up a copy of Fundamentals of Astrodynamics and Applications by David Vallado a while back and wanted to implement some of those algos. After experimenting with kRPC in Kerbal land a bit, I wanted to come back to Orbiter and try to write some automated maneuver and control MFD plugins on my own.
I know C++ and Matlab pretty well and started picking up Python lately. I also wrote a bit of OpenGL 3.x last few years trying to make a simple rocket sim and visualization program of my own.
Thanks for a great forum!

- Auto decent
- Auto rendezvous
- Auto docking
