I've recently been trying to attach 2 boosters to a core stage. A bit like in a delta IV heavy. I've been partially successful with velcro rockets and multistage2. The problem I encounter is that once the boosters have started, I cannot shut them off. This is a big problem since I am planning on...

I am trying to create a spaceship, mainly using the excellent Atomic Rockets site. I am now at the stage of finding about the life support system. I figured the one on the ISS would be a pretty good benchmark for my needs. However I cannot seem to find any numbers on it. I need only the mass...

I've recently been doing some trips with the Chapman probes, but I cannot seem to find the "Realistic Atlas V" addon required for certain scenarios. Does someone know where to find it?

Recently I have been fiddling a bit with velcro rockets. I'm starting to get the hang of it, but I can't figure out how to rotate stages. I've tried changing the direction and rotation parameters, with normalized vectors, but every time either the rocket is stretched strangely or nothing...

Hi to all of you. I first downloaded Orbiter about a year ago and subscribed to this awsome forum. Unfortunatly, I was pretty bad at everything so I stopped playing. A couple of months ago I was bored and remembered I had Orbiter, so I started playing and, this time, I was hooked for good. A...
