Evening everyone,
First of all I'd like to introduce myself; my names Dan and, although this is my first post here, I've been flitting around both Orbiter and this forum for about a year.
I'm a fairly casual player, but I've so far managed to master the DGIV, DGex (which I particularly love), XR2, XR5 and some others I forgot. By "master" I mean take-off to an in orbit RV or a trip to the moon and back, plus re-entry and landing. All good fun.
I've recently started playing with the more realistic stuff such as the Poderosa, the CTV (Pegase), Soyuz, Shenzhou, Orion etc etc. Now, I can do on-orbit and re-entry perfectly well, and take off without the auto-pilot too, however I can only manage that on pre-made scenario's.
My problem is as follows. Considering myself to have a degree of skill with all three components, I decided to launch a CTV-Lunar, ATV2 and the Phoenix LTV into orbit, RV the three of them, and shoot off to the moon. All launching from Well+No Matter's Kourou-ELS site. I can get all three into orbit with no issues whatsoever, however when I seperate the actual craft (I.E., the CTV/ATV/LTV) from the final stage of the Ariane, they don't have any fuel. This is, as I'm sure you can imagine, both perplexing and frustrating. I'm sure I've just added a "1" or something equally insignificant into the scenario file by mistake, but I cannot for the life of me find what it is. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'll post the scenario file below.
One final, if unrelated, question; having no PC, I'm forced to play with a laptop computer. It has an inbuilt NUM-pad so this is generally fine, apart from cases in which a certain command requires a LEFTSHIFT-NUM# command, which I am completely unable to do. Unfortunatly the Shenzhou and Gregburch's stuff (which is bloody fantastic to say the least) use those commands extensively. Is there any way to change a vessel's key mapping?
Apologies if these are common questions, I did use to search function to see if I was just repeating someone else, but no joy.
Thanks very much.
