Hello, I have question about a scenario I'm creating for SSU.

I'm making a scenario for STS-61 (Hubble Servicing 1).

I mostly copy/pasted the elements from another scenario (from HST_ex) where there was already another STS-61 scenario.
I deleted their SHIP for "Shuttle" (ShuttleFleet) and replaced it with the SpaceShuttleUltra element (kept values for POS, AROT, VROT, etc).

When I load it, everything looks correct, I'm in position 1 klick away from the HST but then I noticed something, in the MDU, all my gauges are empty (APU, etc).
Same for the RCS propellant, when I check via the Scenario editor, all 10 tanks are empty.

So I tried the something else:
  1. Launch a SSU and go to orbit
  2. Close the simulation
  3. Relaunch the simulation via CurrentState.scn
  4. Everything looks okay, APU%, RCS% are loaded
  5. I copy/paste the SpaceShuttleUltra and make the modifications regarding its position.
  6. Launch my custom scenario -> APU%, RCS% is 0.

Any idea where these informations are stored so I can put them in my scenarios ?

Also in the scenario, anything for the APU is always 0, even in the CurrentState after a launch.
Code:
@SUBSYSTEM APU1
  APU1_State 0
  APU1_FuelPress 0.000000
  APU1_HydPress 0.000000
  APU1_Speed 0.000000
@ENDSUBSYSTEM		;APU1
@SUBSYSTEM APU2
  APU2_State 0
  APU2_FuelPress 0.000000
  APU2_HydPress 0.000000
  APU2_Speed 0.000000
@ENDSUBSYSTEM		;APU2
@SUBSYSTEM APU3
  APU3_State 0
  APU3_FuelPress 0.000000
  APU3_HydPress 0.000000
  APU3_Speed 0.000000
@ENDSUBSYSTEM		;APU3

I'm lost to say the least ^^'
Any help will do ! :tiphat:

Thanks !

The propellant resources are a bit messy ATM... :facepalm:
So, propellant resource scenario index (from a previous post):
1) MPS manifold (must be full for launch)
2) OMS (and ARCS)
4) APU-1
5) APU-2
6) APU-3
8) FRCS
11) dummy prop resource for THC and RHC (should always have something)
 
I assume you're refering to the PRPLEVEL parameters ? I've should have known ^^

Thanks a lot then !

Yes, the "juice" is defined there.
