I had recently playing with the add on of Mommo and Jekka. It is the HLV where an fictional Ariane 6 laucher is used.
How do I stich the scenario's together so that I can use all the launchers from mission 1 to 23 without to seperatly loading them one for one.
By that I mean there will be 23 seperatly launchers standing on the pad.
Each one of them with their payload.
I know it is unrealistic, but I do not know how to transfer the launchers from a hanger to the launchpad. So I use my imagination.:)
Maybe some one can help me out here.

You could copy the SHIPS entries from one scenario to the other, but if anything has the same name you WILL confuse the program.

I think it is there where my problems start. In looking at the scenario file it looks like mission 1 use this:
Ariane6JMB:Ariane6JM\A6HLV\A6BT
and this:
CONFIG_FILE Config\Ariane6JM\A6HLV\A6BT.ini
GUIDANCE_FILE Config\Ariane6JM\A6HLV\A6BT.txt
Mission 2 use this:
Ariane6JMB:Ariane6JM\A6HLV\A6H2I
and this:
CONFIG_FILE Config\Ariane6JM\A6HLV\A6H2I.ini
GUIDANCE_FILE Config\Ariane6JM\A6HLV\A6BH.txt

Mission 3 use this:
Ariane6JMB:Ariane6JM\A6HLV\A6H2I
and this:
CONFIG_FILE Config\Ariane6JM\A6HLV\A6H2IMS.ini
GUIDANCE_FILE Config\Ariane6JM\A6HLV\A6BH.txt

and so on.
It look like they will clash with each other.
Any of the scenario experts who know how to make it clear for me what to do?

This problem isn't too hard to fix.

Ariane6JMB:Ariane6JM/A6HLV/A6BT

The bolded portion is the name of the launcher. The portion after the colon : is the configuration file that this ship uses.

If all your launchers have the same name, Orbiter will get very confused.

Change the bolded portion to something like Ariane6JMB1 and the launcher after that Ariane6JMB2, all the way to 23.

Will having 23 launchers put a big strain on your processor?

Here and now
Also, some add-ons (MFD's and other) will have a problem if a scenario contains more than 20 vessels.

It's a core 2 duo E 6500. I don't know if Orbiter use the second core at all.
Thanks for the reply.

Orbiter does not use more than one core. But it always uses all the CPU time it can get. So if you have all your background programs on the other one you can optimize your orbiter experience.

All right, I managed to to it!! It looks a bit silly, but it works. Now I can launch the first 4 scenario's one by one in one single scenario.
Thanks for the help.
