I'm on chapter 4 of lets play in space, but it doesn't say what scenario I'm supposed to be running to do the earth to moon trip. Can any one help me find the right scenario? I know there are a few other scenarios I can use to do earth to moon, but they all have slight inconsistencies with the guide (launch window, times, ect). Thats why I'm looking for the exact file.

Thanks thats much better. Using the lets play in space pdf walk through. although it makes this all simple and understandable, it makes space no more forgiving or any less difficult. About the only thing im some what competent at on day 3 of having this is correcting orbits around earth (scenario smack!)


How do I find my forward velocity in the delta glider?

I just downloaded this.
I spent most of the day doing the mission smack mission (not 24 hours straight but on and off) until i mastered it. I kept missing the exact time i needed to end the thrust on my engines to fix my orbit or smack into the earth.
I got to the second mission that was going to have me orbit the moon in small craft. I had to take off from a lunar base. I set up my nav computer to local transponders. Slowly took off. I felt great so I said fuck it and decided to go joyriding. I didn't realize it, but I had broken orbit with the moon. So I turn around to head back to base. I then opened my mouth in horror. The moon was moving faster than the max speed of my engines....
If this were real life I'd either have to wait until the moon orbited back around again or try and shoot for earth.
SO MUCH SPACE GOTTA SEE IT ALL!

An ultra realistic space sim. with fairly good graphics.
This is a shot of simplest ship in the game.

One of the more complicated ships (space shuttle Atlantis)
.

I spent most of the day doing a single mission (not 24 hours straight but on and off) until i mastered it. I kept missing the exact time i needed to end the thrust on my engines to fix my orbit or smack into the earth.
I got to the second mission that was going to have me orbit the moon in small craft. I had to take off from a lunar base. I set up my nav computer to local transponders. Slowly took off. I felt great so I said fuck it and decided to go joyriding. I didn't realize it, but I had broken orbit with the moon. Alot easier to do than on earth due to the low gravity. So I turn around to head back to base. I then opened my mouth in horror. The moon was moving faster than the max speed of my engines....

I suggest downloading the graphics packs and sounds add on. Other wise the graphics are meh and there is no sound.

no. But no one is one right now.

I've never played SS13 but since everything I read about it = drama I'm almost tempted to admin a server just to see if I can do it drama-free (witness the hilarity).

Send anyone who tries to dispute your judgment a shirtless picture of yourself.

Dispute solved.

Thats how I solve 90% of my problems.

You'd have to ask googolplex that. He made it. I haven't played SS13 long enough to use old doughnut station. But I think it is.
