Hah. Hahahahahahah. I can hear the sweet symphony of RUD on the wind already.

There really is a little bit of misty eye over this. I remember this thread first popping up, I can't remember when exactly I purchased, but I really got whole hog into it about a year and a half ago when I started watching Scott Manley's videos on KSP, and now I've just come off watching his...

Language barrier isn't something too fierce. We're all agreeable folks here from different backgrounds and nationalities, you're in good hands. どうぞよろしく。オービターフォーラムよくそ。 (It's nice to meet you. Welcome to OF:hello:)

Robotech is just a re-written Macross, but I will never get over giantplanerobot.

I have, and it's straight garbage. I'd rank these books maybe a notch or two higher.

I kinda thought the books were lackluster in general, though the ending of everything was something unexpected from a book targeted at teens. Then again, reading the whole thing reeked of "I'm trying to push my philosophy through foofy stories" a la Rand, Goodkind. Wasn't a terrible read, but...

Yeah, what Dave said. I tend to make really dumb mistakes when I code scenarios since I'm not quite used to it yet. In this case, I just managed to fly the flight, AP 1 did work. I also tested starting a flight, then exiting and restarting without closing orbiter, and the same problem was...

That I did. I did RTFM before starting, but it's just this weird little hitch that's been happening a bit. I'll try using AP 1 and see if it helps.

Yeah, you got it right, here's the file. It's non standard, but I didn't really change anything when I copied the Jarvis out of the standard scenario, and it worked sometimes previously. BEGIN_DESC -words- END_DESC BEGIN_ENVIRONMENT System Sol Date MJD 63255.1149 END_ENVIRONMENT...

I don't think I've seen someone post the issue, but I've been encountering some odd behavior from the autopilot the past few launches. Normally the scenario starts with the AP running and executes no problem, the issue I'm having is that about 50% of the time, the autopilot simply fails to run...

And suddenly more macros.

That reminds me that I have this stuffed in a corner of my room somewhere:

If this will stop me from having to manually scoop ore out of my mining suit, I am so game.

Is it bad that I tried to calculate kinetic energy for this?

Yeah, in Orbiter Sol is not a true object. I haven't delved into the guts of Orbiter to see what it is actually (check my facts if I'm wrong), but from my close flybys it seems to be a 2D object that just faces the camera, and if you try to touch down on it you will go off into the non-existant...
