Things in orbiter that really get on your nerves

[jedidia]

first: disapearing mousecursors

second: the of collision detection. Allthough most of the time there's nothing near you to collide with, collision detection might have made some things for some mods easier.

apart from that, I only get anoyed about some limited functionality of the API, but I'm glad for what we have...

General weirdness with manipulator arms:
-the camera on the end of the arm that never aligns correctly with the arm or the visual grapple target.
-payloads that drift after they've been grappled.
-when you ungrapple the payload and it jumps several meters away.

The way the atmosphere on Earth is modeled. For one, there is no weather (I know there is an add-on that makes some weather conditions, but it would be neat to see at least a semi-realistic, dynamic weather system). I'd also love to see things I launch in a 120km orbit come down in a realistic time.

Other than that, I love Orbiter.

Dialogues that don't automatically close when you double-click to select (eg select ship) (vs those that do eg select module).

Aside from that, the only thing that gets on my nerves is that I can't spend enough time using & learning from what's one of the best pieces of free software out there.

It gets on my nerves the fact that I haven't finished addons that I am working on. Space Orbinomics is somehow rewarding when you see it running, but it is not yet finished or fully functional.

Yep, Mustard's stuff is great. Sometimes, there are odd things that can be fixed easily, but his addons are well supported and well documented.

If it doesn't work for you, make sure you have multistage.dll and spacecraftx.dll from Vinka's site. 70% of the time, that's the problem.

I had to rebuild my Venusian scientific station three times because of that! It are horrible!

(And to anyone else who's had to restart whole missions due to that bug or a CTD)
