You know you're addicted to Orbiter when...

[Chub777]

When in the COD Black ops map ''Launch'' you dont fight, instead watch the Soyuz launch.

...and you go under the rocket to get blasted by the exhaust.

GUILTY of the above.

I do it every single time. :tiphat: And I always wait a little before I blow up Soyuz 2 :lol:.

When ^--this--^ is what convinces you that you just need to break down and buy Black Ops, just so you can watch the Soyuz launch :rofl:

Yep, it was me. Back on 5/22.

Just did this one - When your wife asks you what year a particular TV series began airing, and instead of typing in www.imdb.com, you type in imfd.com :facepalm:

But in a thread this long, bound to have a few repeats

Kev33's i believe. i'm running David413's STS-135 scenarios. i had to tweak locations a bit to fit with O2010.

Im using Slats and I had to switch Kev33's pad and put in Slats.The I edited the Earth_Alt for the gray clouds you see in the pic.

You think one of the problems of interstellar travel is numerical precision.

hmm, it still has to be proven that it isn't :hmm:



... :uhh: - when you say things like that

 

[jangofett287]

When you don't need to read the buttons on the launchpad, F4 menu or the scenario editor any more.

When you're talking to someone about space missions using a load of acronyms and abbreviations and you suddenly realize that you actually understand what they mean.

 

[Grover]

When you can use things youve learned from orbiter to ask your physics teacher a question even he cant answer (and this guy teaches astrophysics AND cosmology)

When you spend your time on HALO Reach simply commenting on its inaccurraccies... like jumping off a ship in GEO... then falling to re-entry...

 

[jedimaster1214]

When you're so bored, you open OF without realizing it every 5 seconds.

 

[HAL9001]

Corollary: You understand completely what they mean, but the person you're talking to, doesn't. Added points if you find the translation difficulties frustrating.

I was referring to a conversation held with another O-F member, not someone the world considers 'Normal' in terms of spaceflight vocabulary.
