Add-on Description:
This add-on for Orbiter 2016 is designed as a companion MFD for francisdrake’s Orion-MPCV spacecraft and its default “Orange SLS” launcher (https://www.orbiter-forum.com/showthread.php?t=34839).
It currently it contains 3 functions:
- SLS launch autopilot: launches the SLS and puts Orion + EUS (Exploration upper stage) in a low earth circular orbit.
- Reentry autopilot: manages Orion-MPCV earth reentry from LEO to a defined splashdown point.
- “Return home” feature: calculates a splashdown point when returning from a moon mission.
- Unzip the installation file in the Orbiter root directory (e.g. C:\Orbiter2016).
- Go to <root directory>\Config\MFD, open file ScriptMFD.cfg and add a line containing “MFD\OrionAP.cfg”
- Put a semi-colon at the beginning of unneeded script MFD lines if you like. For example:
;MFD\Attitude.cfg
;MFD\TestMFD1.cfg
;MFD\TestMFD2.cfg
- In the Modules tab of Orbiter launcher, check the “ScriptMFD” checkbox.
- Improved landing point accuracy in RET mode.
- Various display improvements.
