Is Orbitersim good enough? For some Celestia users, definitely not!

[James.Denholm]

I see no problem in comparing Orbiter and Celestia, but the comparison should remember the nature of the things compared.

For example: A Lamborghini Gallardo and a Piaggio Ape are both Italian cars. But try to use the Gallardo for delivering goods to a small restaurant in a small side street. Or drive 280 km/h with the Ape.

Urwumpe, I don't know you, even when you happen to always come in the middle of my threads (do you live inside the forum?), but you happen to play same role as t00fri plays for Celestia. A Watchdog barking at people that may seem to be critizicing your personal possession.

I am really growing tired of people like you that seem so usual on these communities, defenders of the essence of the holly code, guardians of the official standpoint.

Don't say I do flamebait: I don't.

I wrote my 1st gravitational simulator early in the 80's with an Amstrad 128, and since then, I ve been an enthusiast and advocate for Celestia, Orbiter and a long list of remarkable space related software projects, so I would really appreciate you to refrain from commenting my threads anymore unless you come up with something focused on the topic, please please.

For instance, pros and cons of the current Orbiter model and how feasible would it be for a Celestia enthusiast to adapt it.

Verstehen Sie?

Whoa. Some-one is out of line.

Firstly, consider what is going on here.

You've gone and told people on the Celestia forum that Orbiter is something it's not. Uwurmple (who is a respected member here, by the way) knows what Orbiter is. He also knows that comparing the two is like comparing chalk and cheese. Chalk and cheeze, mate. And he said as much.

And then you go and scream that it's off topic, that the topic is "yours", that he can't touch it. It's not yours, that's like putting something out on your fround yard, putting a "free" sign on it, going away to work, coming back to find it gone, and calling the cops. You post something here, it's here for everyone. Anyone can come in and comment it, and, provided that person is not banned, he has the right to do so.
