When you use Orbiter's 'Today' scenario to see what time of day it is in other parts of the world.
Guilty, just now. Darn you Europe, for having your morning at 3AM! :lol:
 
When you think the B train goes to the moon since the last stop is "Brighton Beach"
 
You know you're addicted to Orbiter when:

* You use it as an alarm clock (volume way up + an autoburn function)
* You catch yourself looking out the office window every thirty minutes or so to see if you've crossed the terminator
* You uninstall WinAmp and queue your entire MP3 collection through Orbiter
* You try to convince your best friend that Orbiter is just as awesome as Unreal
* Your list of enabled modules is larger than your family tree


:cheers:
 
every time you hear someone talk of any sort of trip, and how long it would take, the first thought in your mind, which you must make an effort not to voice out is: "in orbit it'd take 10 seconds" :P

you can't help but to wonder how puny a fraction of C the local traffic speed limits really are...

you cringe every time someone reminds you of thhe movie "Armaggedon", then rejoice remembering that "Apollo 13" was really filmed in zero G

you wonder why ppl would charge money for simulators that can't even take you as far as the moon

whenever you make an earthly mistake, you say: "it's not like rocket science, this is HARD"

When you plan a trip, driving to the country side and you start accelerating using max engine power, using 1st, 2nd and 3rd gear (stage) and then you turn off the engine (MECO) so you can reach your destination. Extra points if you use 6th gear thinking it is a low thrust VASIMR engine.

You hear Bach's "Air on a G String" on television and press select on the remote to try to bring up the Radio MFD to disable mp3 playing.

Heard it on the radio while playing Orbiter once. And then I sort of freaked out because I had removed that song from the mp3 list months ago...
 
When you ask: "How do you know you're addicted to Orbiter?" and you expect a reply like "Read the manuak..."
