[Bonanza123d]

I want to know how to edit the moon's orbit. I want to make it lower for fun.

Its all in Moon.cfg in your Config folder.

Try this:

; === Configuration file for moon Moon(Earth) ===
Name = Moon
ErrorLimit = 1e-5
EllipticOrbit = TRUE           ; ignore perturbations
HasElements = TRUE             ; orbital elements follow

; === Planetary Mean Orbits ===
Epoch = 2000.0                 ; J2000
SemiMajorAxis = 9000000         ; meters 
Eccentricity = 0.0549
Inclination = 5.145            ; rad
LongAscNode = 0.86530876153          ; rad 
LongPerihelion = 5.8650190805        ; rad
MeanLongitude = 6.20383077256        ; rad

; === Physical Parameters ===
Mass = 7.347664e+22
Size = 1.738e6                   ; mean radius
SidRotPeriod = 60591.597       ; = 27.321662 days
SidRotOffset = 0.75049	         ; rotation offset at J2000.0
Obliquity =  0.02692024985275    ; rad(1.5424167)
LAN = 0                          ; ascending node of equator - CHECK!

; === Visualisation Parameters ===
MaxPatchResolution = 10           ; highest sphere patch level

; === Fixed surface observation points ===
BEGIN_OBSERVER
Brighton Beach:Tower: -33.4375 +41.125 120
END_OBSERVER

Its that low for fun

 

[jangofett287]

yea, and I put it lower. oops. tip: orbiter doesn't like it if you try to take off inside the moon.

I wanted to know what option I edit in the first place. Without affecting size
