Problem Apollo 9 timing screwed up

[sterny70]

Hello all

I'm trying to fly Apollo 9.
Everything works fine until approx. GET 90 hrs.
The SEP time in the PAD shows me 92:55:45 GET and the Phasing time 93:39:57 GET
This is way not enough time to do all the procedures like aligning the LEM, configure DEDA, Getting RDV RDR signal and line up the LEM for the Phasing burn.

And oh, before i forget, i never get a valid RDV RDR signal at any time.

I guess there's a massive glitch in the Version.

Build 2574

Any avices from somebody

Thank you
Sterny

Your time interval between sep and phasing is just like the actual flight plan:

Your timeline is shifted to 10 minutes earlier than the flight plan, but that is normal, it's dynamically adjusted for TPI lighting.

What you have to realize is that you are doing the job of 3 astronauts. That is a challenge we have in NASSP in general. Can make certain mission phases very difficult without resorting to using 0.1x time acceleration. Practice helps definitely.

Not sure about your rendezvous radar issue, did you do the V84 correctly to tell the LGC about the CSM sep burn? You have to be very careful there, in V84 you enter the DV vector first, and then the TIG. That is different to e.g. P30. In later AGC software versions (where V84 has becomes P76) they changed the order.
