OFSS II - Project Info & Discussion Thread

Aww, don't just replace it, the Pollux/Castor is a lovely addon. More variety is always nice to have, you could have the Antares launching from the Aurora Launch Platform if the cape is getting a bit too busy

 

[Kyle]

No one said I was going to. lol.

Yea, I think I'll keep PTV because I've already have loads of scenarios with it docked to OFSS2. I do plan on adding Antares too! KSC launching XR's, Shuttles, Jarvis's, and PTV's!

Alexw95 for personal reasons cannot preform the STS-147 mission.

Scruce is backup for Alex, so he'll be getting the scenario shortly. Scruce will be flying both the Dragon and the shuttle missions next week if he can manage.

...thanks a 1E6...

:rofl:Can I borrow that line?

 

[Mojave]

Launch was successful and everything is running smoothly. :thumbup:

 

[Kyle]

Samuel, check your PM ASAP! I'm giving you STS-147 to fly.

Phantom, your backup for STS-147 now btw for Samuel.

Shure, why not? I did :lol:

 

[diogom]

What's the payload for STS-147? BTW, can anyone explain me what is that 1E6 thing?

 

[PhantomCruiser]

1E6. 1,000,000 in scientific notation. It just struck me as really funny.
I think STS-147 is a build flight?

 

[diogom]

OK, thanks. My maths learning hasn't went that far yet (or maybe I learned it differently ), so I didn't get it.

 

[C3PO]

1E6 is just an easier way to write [MATH]1.0*10^6[/MATH] = 1 million

4.6E3 is [math]4.3*10^3[/math] = 4,300
And the joke is the phrase "Thanks a million" :lol:

 

[diogom]

Yeah, written like that I remember. I wonder if my maths prof knows that... :hmm: Probably yes, but it's worth a try.:lol:

STS-147: solar truss segment to be located on the Zenith port of Neesys.

 

[halcyon]

I'd really like to get involved with this!
I just finished some shuttle training on my own, and can put down the shuttle on a dime anywhere on the planet.

Would love to fly a shuttle mission...is there any room left on the roster?

*edit*
Also, did you guys settle on a patch? I have some skill with photoshop.

 

[Nazban]

Halcyon, you can ask kyle here for a mission(or PM him if you want), i think all the mission slots are full now, but you can ask him to assign one for you when he makes more missions.
And for patches, you can create one if you want for your own mission.

 

[Kyle]

STS-147 is done, screenshots will be posted by samuel shortly.

 

[diogom]

Kyle, I just thought of a nice addition to OFSS2: brianj's spotlight, to make night working easier and for some eye candy too .

 

[PhantomCruiser]

I don't see any reason why it couldn't be latched on via Universal Cargo Deck... I think BrianJ made something in the "must-have" category of downloads, that's for sure.

 

[diogom]

U Cargo Deck, that's exactly what I though of. It could be added in a "EVA", like the KU antenna.

 

[EricEvan]

I'm interested in being a pilot for OFSS II. I have experience with DragonX and Cestus-Pollux. I have not had a chance to try the other vehicles, although I'm certain I could pick them up if need be.

 

[diogom]

Welcome to OFSS2, EricEvan! I believe Kyle can't assign you to a mission now (every mission as been assigned) but new ones will be available.
