What is dance - is a good question, but I don't think there's one right answer. Dance is very cultural and generational. We might be able to come to a general agreement that such and such physical movement definitely is NOT dance (e.g. a bunch of idiots running around inside of a mosh pit and...

The XR2 is extremely versatile. You can edit your $ORBITER_HOME\Config\XR2RavenstarPrefs.cfg file to make the kinds of changes you are talking about. It would be a good idea to make a backup of the file first so that you can revert back to the defaults when you've learned more. (Though, you can...

If you're suffocating while on the ground, try turning on External Cooling.

According to the FAQ, "..we will NEVER sell anything that can't be acquired through honest (and fun!) gameplay."

With the launch of the new consoles, there was apparently some discussion that Star Citizen might make its way to the consoles. Chris Roberts says otherwise. "Star Citizen is a PC game," he wrote. "It will never be dumbed down for a lesser platform. We will NOT limit the input options or...

Thanks for mentioning my video, but I kinda hate that example of using LTMFD. Also, from what I'm reading, he's trying to work out how to go from the Earth to the Moon at this point, not the other way around. If you're looking for some non-tutorials :) - I have a few Earth to Moon using TransX...

What does the inside of a CHM look like anyway? :)

Looks comfy.

WOW! When I set this up, I thought my time was really close to the best possible time. Great job!

You are in the XR2 at Hall Base on Phobos. Take off from the base and land as close to Olympus as you can within the allotted time. The usual challenge rules apply: Do not refuel the vessel Do not add any more LOX or APU fuel Do not egress any of the crew Must keep the CHM in the XR2 at all...

Great plan. I have to admit I didn't put any thought into the date. I flew a Grand Tour mission earlier this year and found that the 2153 date was the next time a Grand Tour was possible. So when I saw this thread, I knew that by using that date, I had a good date for Earth -> Jupiter -> Saturn...

What is your definition of "can support aerobraking"? Since the standard DG is invulnerable, this will work. Just don't try it in the XR2. :) BEGIN_DESC END_DESC BEGIN_ENVIRONMENT System Sol Date MJD 107607.0766314721 END_ENVIRONMENT BEGIN_FOCUS Ship GL-01 END_FOCUS BEGIN_CAMERA...

I've had this add-on for a while, long enough that I've reached 10,000 state saves. I have it set to keep 10 saves. Up to this point, the add-on would always delete the oldest save to make room for a new one, but now that I've reached 10000 saves, it just keeps replacing 10000 over and over...

Check the doc folder of your Orbiter install for the DeltaGlider.pdf file. Pages 7 and 8 list the technical specifications. EDIT: Here's a screenshot of the specifications in case you don't have convenient access to the pdf. ( Screenshot taken from HazMatt's DeltaGlider Checklist.)

A video I took of my first 30 minutes with this program. Note that this was literally my first time seeing and using the program, so at this point, I know nothing about it. Near as I can tell, there is no documentation for this Early Access version. There are 2 PDF's in the Manuals subfolder...

The version of TransX that comes bundled with Orbiter 2010 has a known bug that causes it to draw the planet graphic improperly when you bring up the Escape Plan View.. (The graphic appears as a solid white circle.) You can read about the problem here...

13/13. These were all just basic trivia questions that I've learned over the years by having a normal interest in science.

Here's a quick scenario you can play with to test your ability to find Prograde without using any instruments or MFD's. EDIT: I added one more ship to the scenario for a Earth to Moon flight. (I had to change the MJD for this to work.) Finding prograde relative to the sun while drifting between...

How do real world space vessels orient themselves? (How do they "find" prograde?) Someone asked me this question a week or so ago in a comment on one of my videos, and I couldn't answer their question. This is something I've wondered myself. I did a couple searches in the forums and didn't find...
