And see what I did this summer... The Tyrrell was chosen by my son, he really wanted to build this.

Well, even with the command line version, its pretty easy to learn the dozen most common command lines you need for getting your work done. Of course, if you come into things like rebasing out-of-sync branches...

For example, is the easiest solution.

I can see them and my former account is burned since it became X.

Yes.

In SSU is also a more complicated version of that, using external data files.

Well, not to spoil your fun, but let me just say one word: Space. And space is big.

From 30000 meters. every car is just a color....

Yes, but doing so on the CPU simply is wasteful. a GPU variant would work faster and better, but that went beyond the Orbiter API.

I once wrote a module, that experimented with making a city out of multiple buildings at different LODs allowing to fly smoothly over a pretty complex city made of about 2000 buildings. With some optimizations, maybe 10000 would have worked. The main problem was telling, in which LOD category...

Actually, its 155 MJ (just check the orders of magnitude) and if that energy would not dissipate different, the poor astronaut would heat up by 234 K. Enough to bake a good Pizza Astronaut. Luckily, that does not happen, but I would expect a peak temperature difference of ~100K, since most of...

Could you maybe include asymmetric wind effects or ground effect into the core? Its pretty hard to even get this halfway right and especially large delta wing aircraft like we often have in Orbiter, are very suspectible to it.

Of that is really sad news, he was a real institution. I encountered him as many artists, late at night in German TV, when they showed the concert for Monserrat. Volcano was really irresistable, luckily Youtube had the exact SHOW I saw in store:

Well, I can understand, that Musk wants to do everything with X. From selling and paying cars to broadcasts. Just bad, that he first of all had to destroy Twitter, before he can build X upon it. He is really the best CEO that Mastodon doesn't have. At least the scientific Twitter has now...
