The UCGO doesn't use C++, so it's easy! and Loru created the surface science kit, this is usefull. And my computer is broken, so I can't create another intruments now, maybe next week...

Okay. The launch window is April 25, so we will need to have everything together and loaded by then. That radio telescope thing is still bothering me tho...how the heck am I going to build one of those things?

[Lydia]

Well TMac thats simple get the mshes put together for all the parts and only make the base deployable, then use action areas to attach the other parts to it like in

Our today's flight experience seems on-topical here. We just tossed UCGO cargo from XR5's bay to the Arrow!

lol great Pic xD

Okay, so far we have three base crew out of the five needed:
Base Commander/Doctor: TMac3000 (unless someone else wants it)
Geology 1: Lydia
Geology 2: open
Solar 1: Filipi1205
Solar 2: open

I still need flight crews. This is something of a thankless job, I know, since most of them will get to see Mercury but not set foot there, and the XR crews don't even get to leave LEO. Still an essentail job though, if we ever want to go anywhere

Need 2 for each of the Arrows, and 2 for each of the XR-5s. The XR-2 Intrepid has been scrapped thanks to the recently posted Arrow Freighter Docking Harness. Many, many thanks to the inventor, although I can't remember your handle at the moment

Now, the launch window, is that real time? I.E. April of 2012?

It is, and so is the arrival date. This mission will be in real time, so whoever signs up for the Odyssey crew, I hope they don't mind having their computer tied up for a while

why not use time warp?

[TMac3000]

Because real time is more immersive and less buggy. It's been done before, but not as a forum mission, I don't think. Someone did a real time mission to Mars. The alternative is to use Date->Now in the scenario editor to update it, and then save the Current State file over the scenario file. Unfortuantely this tends to wipe out IMFD course data Does anyone know a way to prevent this?

[Lydia]

creator of the harness is chrothor GIVE HIM CREDIT XD

[TMac3000]

Many thanks Chrothor for the add-on
