Hi, I have a serious issue. Since I download the last version, when I start the OBS with the catch up mod loaded, I have the MALF indicator lighted. Furthermore the 73 core did'nt change its value anymore...
It's quite difficult to play with the Gemini spacecraft without catch up a targeted orbite 😢
The version of the game is 0.9330.EA

#

the 3 times it's appeared I was in the first mission of the Gemini's campaigne or (like in the screen) in the exam of Gemini's Academy.

Catch Up Mode changed dramatically in 0.93 but there are some older things in the checklist.

The new procedure for using catch up is to request the burn you need from the comm buttons (circ at AP for example) and then activate the catchup mode, and then when Core 83 reaches zero (which is now read in the format MMM:SS, instead of the previous 5 digit total seconds) zero the IVIs to complete the burn.

The reset button should be pressed after completion of the burn.

MALF indicates that either no burn has been calculated, or the burn time was in the past when you attempted to start the catchup mode.

Also changed in 0.93 is REENT mode. Check the updates on Steam for a bit more details, or check out Petri's youtube videos about the new way to do burns in Gemini.

Academy and checklist updates are definitely needed for this change...

#

It would appear the campaign is also needing significant updates

Oh thank you so much! I will check all of that tomorrow (it's midnight in France)

shouldn't the pilot also be able to program the values in even without mission control? seem like the pilot would have the ability to add the data to the computer in case mission control could not.

Yes, if you look at the new burn PAD in Gemini, it includes the cores to set for burn TIG and for deltaVx/y/z for a specific burn

Yes, the pilot can insert any values in the OBC. It's simply a dV vector at a TIG, and the TIG itself.

#

The burn tool just gives you the values

#

The checklists for orbit circ and rendezvous has been updated, same with the Academy (new lesson added) and the campaign has changed (it was mostly relying on checklists as I knew an OBC change was planned when I created the missions)
