Hi Martin.
Just curious as to what your future aspirations for Orbiter might be, now that you've split the sim core from the Graphics..
Things like collision detection, mesh, weather..?
Or perhaps Interstellar travel (modelling the stars in a 20ly radius for example (and the issues that this presents (relative star motions around the galactic core etc..))) / partial or full relativistic simulation?
Just curious.

Accurately simulated MMOD damage if you don't read the manual. :p

Martin already says that he doesn't want to work on a collision detection ...
But what is the MMOD damage?

I would like an overhauled atmospheric model. Mainly supersonic regime, as well as increased stability when more than one airfoil (one vertical, one horizontal) are in play.
