Mercury Project 5.0 on Orbit Hangar - latest version?

[DanP]

Hi,

I downloaded Mercury Project 5.0 from Orbit Hangar. Didn't have a chance to actually fly it yet, but looks great judging by the manuals. It's from Jan 2005. This is quite a long time ago, so I'm wondering whether I'm missing something and there's a new version ?

Thanks.

There hasn't been much devlopment on Project Mercury since 5.0. As far as I know, this is the absolute latest public version minus a patch that may exist... somewhere. For the most part Project Mercury still functions as it should and is one of the coolest addons, but there are a few bugs when using it in Orbiter 2006. For example, I've often seen the oxygen levels drop at inconsistent rates and even had the secondary tank go out before the primary one started. Other bugs occasionally show up in the instruments or visuals but usually don't interfere with the mission.
