Have you ever wanted to fly an Apollo mission in real time? Now you can do it without leaving your PC on.

This module automatically updates Orbiter's sim time to whatever it would be had you had left it running.

For a more accurate propagation set ACCEL in realtime.cfg to true. Thanks to agentgonzo for giving me the code for that.

Nice - Glad to see this one released!
 
I did some quick essays but with a spacecraft (3) and in Orbiter beta, but I did not well understand how it worked. Or, can be was my characteristics of flight (atmospheric) that did not suit...

Thank you escapetomsfate.
 
Excellent addon. With a little forward planning, and an alarm clock, I can skip the tedium of day-long cruise phases and "tune in" when I need to do something by a checklist or whatever. No time acceleration required. Nice. ;)
 
Great idea! This can really help with accuracy since the estimations of Time acceleration tend to Warp space on long haul missions in orbiter(but not in a good way that would get us outside the solar system in our lifetimes)

I think I'll use this to go to Neptune (with changes to system time and non living crew of course, don't have a big enough LOX tank)
 
Thanks a lot for that addon! I was waiting for it! :p

Is that possible to limit maximum time acceleration (for accel=true) to prevent ground vessels from escaping our galaxy?
