Resident Orbiter Slave
Hi all,
This is a problem that I've had with Orbiter for over a year. It's fairly straightforward, yet I can't figure it out for the life of me. When I launch sputnik's Manned Orbiting Lab (MOL), the solar panels are supposed to automatically extend after the transtage is jettisoned (J key). However, this is almost never the case; generally, I press J to jettison the transtage and Orbiter CTDs. The log is completely clean.
Once in a blue moon, I will make it through without a CTD, but the solar panel animations will be a little off (extend then retract again about halfway).
The only thing I can think of is perhaps a few functions in the .dll that are no longer compatible with Orbiter 2006 (MOL was released for the version prior), but I haven't bothered to sort through the source code.
Does anyone have suggestions or similar experiences?
