Martin Schweiger's Orbiter simulator: Archives -- April 2002
New Releases from the Meadville Space Center
I have my revised Earth:1962 which can be installed and used without
changing your basic orbiter configurations
I have uploaded V2 Bumper 2.0 and Sputnik R7
The Sputnik R7 implements Vinka's Autopilot using the new attitude control
APIs in orbit.
The source files for these modules are good examples of a basic rocket, a
simple multi-stage rocket, and a multi-stage rocket with boosters.
The Scenarios for these module require Earth:1962 just unzip Earth:1962 in
your orbiter directory and you will be good to go no further mucking around
is required.
I will be working on an extensive update of the Gemini focusing on adding
the auto-pilot, the use of the Agena, limited Attitude Fuel, and correct
deployment of the Chutes.
I will then work on Mercury updating the ballistic characteristics, added
the auto-pilot, implementing limited attitude fuel and the attitude modes of
the mercury, plus my first attempt at panels.
Next will be moving over the Atlantis RMS to Orbiter's new Atlantis and
getting Payload Jettison to work from the Arm.
