Does Universal Autopilot work?
Very cool! Works well for me - set target vessel, target dock, own dock and distance - off it goes. Nice utility :thumbup:Guys, PursuitMFD autodock works great with Dragon, just follow my post above. I can do a video tutorial when I get a chance, I've got to go get a rototiller today. Real life calls!
Hi Don,
can you post the scenario? I'll give it a try.
I had trouble docking the Shuttle with PursuitMFD, but Dragon and all other spacecraft I've tried have been fine. That's strange, looks and sounds like everything is set correctly.
EDIT: Actually, I see that Docking MFD on the right is using VIS mode, I wonder if PursuitMFD doesn't like that? Try setting the TGT dock manually.
Try moving your modules around in the list,sounds like a module isn’t playing nice with another.

Hi,Hello
I have downloaded all the addons required but cannot get this to work at all
The Rocket lies at an angle of 45 degrees to the tower and the Dragon COTS 2 scenario just crashes back to desktop
I am running orbiter 2016 on an ASUS 64bit laptop using windows 10
With thanks
Probably simpler to make changes using the Launch Control Panel (K), but you can edit the scenario - look at the "LOTM" line in the Falcon9 vessel section. The first 6 numbers are HH MM SS, the next number is 0 for off, or 1 for active.If I am writing a scenario for the DM-2, what changes (and where) do I make to alter the launch time?
I know I can do it through the Falcon9 Launch Control Panel (K), but I want to be able to change the Launch Autopilot in other ways, too.
Regards
Don, I just remembered something about the VesselBuilder version - do your "Drogue Cover" and "Main Cover" still have 1000kg mass in their .cfg's?I did deactivate Attachment manager. Do you have to be totally lined up to dock before pressing ADP ?
