GREAT!!!!
VC panel. How should the switches and talkbacks be named ?
Right side but wrong location. The L10 panel goes on the right side when you're looking at the Payload Station.Is this the proper position for the IUS panel ? Also, any repositioning or sizing of the VC ?
Right now everything is the same. Resized VC will be later.That's easy to fix, but what about the sizing ?
For now the cover can be deleted until the new meshes are done.Question about the IUS: should I make arrangements for the SRM-1 nozzle cover to be hidden on ignition? (it would still show up after separation, unless it's made hidden by default in the mesh)
BTW: I think I now know how to do the Urwumpe's "texture trick" to replace the texture painting. I was going to say we could use panel L10 as a "guinea pig" for this, but it's probably not a good idea as it would put more on the plate. It's better to do it all at once after the release.
Anyway, the IUS is pretty much done! Most of the code was useful, but there was some that had to be re-done. Still some work to be done in the RCS coordinates as there're some axis couplings that shouldn't be there, and I'm now going to add the payload adapter code, and then start the panel.
For now the cover can be deleted until the new meshes are done.
The latter.Deleted as in hidden on ignition like I said, or deleted as deleting that group from the mesh?
A question about the talkbacks and the size of the groups in the mesh: currently they are covering just the top half or the bottom half of the talkback "window"... shouldn't it be the whole "window"?
In this image from Apollo 13 it looks like there's a barberpole background, and then the gray part on top "fills" half or all of the window.correct. What I am not sure about is: Does the cover over the indication of the talkback move, or does the indication move in the window?
The grey rectangles come down to cover the barber pole. I failed to make the rectangles single sided, so when they were converted to .msh, Orbiter made them single sided, but facing the wrong direction, so they became invisible. I turned them around to face the right direction. Do you need them all in the off or on position ?
