Hi all
I use orbiter 2010 and the latest version of transX ( it came with orbiter 2010 ).
I choose the ShuttleA scenario whith shuttleA sitting on Mars and decided to start there in order to dock it to Mir or ISS.....
No problem for targetting, adjusting different variables and leaving mars. At that stage, the encounter ( from transx ) tells me a focused Pe of 20M around earth which is quite ok.
At a distance of approx 500M from Mars, strange things start to happen...When I push prograde command, i see Mars in front of me. When i push retrograde button, i see the sun in front of me.... That cant be or i am wrong somewhere ???
Later, when first stage finally dissippears ( mars gravity =0) i checked again encounter ( FW button on transX mfd ) and i find out that i miss Earth by 7G.. Just before i was going right into earth ( i mean collision course) as focused Pe changes with time.
Where I am wrong ? Or is shuttle A wrong ?
:thumbup: thanks for your time !
