Updates include:

- Added XR2Ravenstar as an XRVessel

- Updated SHIP:<>:NavModeStates to append the three XR autopilots if the target vessel uses XRVesselCtrl.

- Added new ORB:SetHudBrightness command. HUD brightness can now be set as a level (0-100)
 
Yagni,

is there any additional documentation for Orb:Connect (apart from OrbConnectUserGuide)?
I am having trouble with the XCTL:...:MWS command. When the XR-1 is completely destroyed during re-entry I read the following message from Orb:Connect:
"XCTL:XR1-01:MWS=1111111111111111111111111111111110011110111".
I assume two "0" stand for the missing Crew Elevator and Payload Bay of XR1, but what is the third "0" for? Also, which of the values corresponds to what warning?
The sequence of the values in the Orb:Connect message seem to mismatch with the sequence the XRSystemStatus data structure is defined in XR1_XRVesselCtrl.h.

Thanks for your help!
 
The only other documentation would be the code itself. To answer your question, the 0 in position 39 (0-based) is a placeholder for a SCRAM fuel warning I asked Doug to put into the next version of the interface. I've made a note to remove that value from the next version of Orb:Connect. Thanks for noticing that and thanks for your interest in OC.

BTW, rather than bump such an old thread, it would probably be better to create a new 'question' thread. Someone may think I just released a newer version. :)
