Space Shuttle Ultra 1.25 Revision B development

I've encountered a problem with the CG updating code. It uses ShiftCG to move the CG, and this doesn't update the exhaust stream positions, which is a problem for the SRB exhaust. The only simple solution seems to be to remove the SRB particle streams entirely.

I've had good results using a fixed CG, but moving the CG at launch to a different position. Using the ET Attach Test scenario, the shuttle winds up at a velocity of 1310 m/s and an altitude of 44 km at SRB sep (it should be at 1270 m/s and 46 km). This should be close enough.
 
A further update: the exhaust stream issues can be fixed by attaching the exhaust streams to the thruster position (instead of specifying the position), so it looks like the CG updating code can be used.
 
The other thing that could be messing up our first stage performance is the aerodynamics of the stack. At the moment, SSU has no lift component during launch, and the drag calculation is very simple (it still uses Orbiter's old aerodynamics model).

Does anyone have information about the shuttle aerodynamics during launch?
 
I've checked in the code which updates the stack CG during launch, along with a (probably inaccurate) aerodynamics model. The first stage performance should now be pretty close to the actual numbers.

It would be nice if someone could make sure the CG code isn't messing up any animations/exhaust streams/attachment points. Everything seems fine to me, but I might have missed something.

I'll check it later, in the mean time, could someone tell me where the camera position data for the ODS C/L camera view is located? It's kinda bothering not having it centered.

Atlantis.cpp, line 5966.
BTW, we should probably move the different camera positions (ODS, PLBD) to Atlantis_vc_defs.h, where the other camera positions are defined.
 
Everything so far checks out A-OK. Only issues noticed was that when Alt-tabbing the TGT values on the OMS MNVR screens would blank out and that when moding to MM106 the OMS will reignite and continue the previously completed OMS2 burn.

Even with the OMS ENG switches on C3 in the OFF position the RCS will go haywire and execute the burn.

Another issue is that burn targeting really needs working. It frequently requires manual trimming at OMS CO through the use of the RCS. I believe the rules that any axes above 1 fps at CO requires trimming, and our targeting usually leaves fps well above that in all three axes.

Scenario to reproduce the above mentioned problems is here:

Gave this last .scn a quick look and it looks like it was saved during powered flight.... which is something that doesn't work...
It's a PITA to test something at MECO, but for now that's the way it is. I remember asking sometime ago if it was necessary have the capability to save the sim during powered flight and the answer was "no" (and I agree), but as everything, it's open for discussion.
"In other news:" If all goes well I'll pickup SSU dev sometime in the next month.
:cheers:

Everything so far checks out A-OK. Only issues noticed was that when Alt-tabbing the TGT values on the OMS MNVR screens would blank out and that when moding to MM106 the OMS will reignite and continue the previously completed OMS2 burn.

Even with the OMS ENG switches on C3 in the OFF position the RCS will go haywire and execute the burn.

Another issue is that burn targeting really needs working. It frequently requires manual trimming at OMS CO through the use of the RCS. I believe the rules that any axes above 1 fps at CO requires trimming, and our targeting usually leaves fps well above that in all three axes.

I can't reproduce the Alt-Tab issue. Can you post a screenshot and the graphics settings you're using? Also, when the OMS ENG switches are OFF, nothing happens; the RCS jets don't fire.

I can reproduce the MM106 problem; it should be fixed soon.

Neither can I now. Must have been some temporary thing that only showed up that time. I was playing around with ITEM 19/22 to get the correct dVx for the OMS2 burn, maybe that triggered it.

Confirmed. Moding over to MM106 doesn't trigger OMS2 execution anymore.

Checked in a fix for the ODS Centerline camera view. Works A-OK again. The only ODS ticket left is the detachment of the ball screw assemblies when the ring is in the FWD Position.
 
How are the remaining tickets coming along? Any possibility of summer release?
 
Which tickets need to be fixed before release? I think tickets 2,3,6 and 7 are the most important ones.

I agree on those with the addition of 17. Currently only modifications are required for the PLB floods and the addition of the RMS EE light.

I think 2, 3 and 18 are pretty critical.

17 should get split into tickets for the respective light groups, it is too vague and will always need further explanation like it is now. We can't implement every light without punishing the GPU. Also we should include the engine light sources into the planning, the engine lights have a higher priority than the other lights during ascent, but can be removed afterwards.

(Suggestion: New Ticket for "Implementation of a LightSourceManager class" for managing the light sources that are enabled/disabled in one place, instead of having the functionality spread over multiple places)

9 sounds pretty bad to me, but the "open" status sounds misplaced there. A code review could find the possible origin of the problems, if it really still exists. Or somebody should do brute force tests for buffer overflows for an evening (2-3 hours, not more), if this doesn't show any problems, the ticket should get closed and not get opened again.

#11 is my responsibility, I will look at what I can do there, but it is not release critical at all IMHO.

################################################################################

About the ticket format: In the future, tickets should always be formulated in a way, that we have a "definition of done" in the text: What should SSU do, how must it behave, so this ticket can be considered closed? Like it is now, we can't test if a ticket is really closed.

I think most of the lights in ticket 17 are already implemented, except for the RMS light and the Docking Floodlight. I don't think there's any way to convert the power specs given in the ticket into the values used by Orbiter, but it should be possible to implement the beam angles values.

That's no problem. We'll just have to tune them until they appear like the real ones.
