  • Umm... Ok, RMS part is totally crazy... I can't dock the Unity to the shuttle. I click release, and Unity flies away....

  • @CodeGreen47 I know. It's really really tough. It takes a lot of tries, and the only advice I can give is trying to use that "Z+ and Z-" and "Y+ and Y-" area thing rather than the arrows to manipulate joints on their own. Good luck. It'll take a while.

  • @thesnorklemonkey I made it only once, but, after the docking to Unity, I have no idea what to do. I see Zarya in faaaaar disance as a dot, and it just flies away and my mission fails.

  • @CodeGreen47 So you didn't properly rendezvous with Zarya then. It's like rendezvousing with any object. Maybe my Delta Glider to ISS tutorial will help you with rendezvous techniques.

  • @thesnorklemonkey Yea.. listen.. I'm still pretty newbie with Orbiter. I think I should start from mere beginning, but I can't find noob tutorial anywhere on the internet. It's the same problem with Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004, let's say. I just can't find any tutorials that can explain me things about simulators. I just want to finish the mission/flight successfully, but It's like destiny doesn't wanna let me do so!

  • @Tehpredator105

    I had the same problem. Plug in the coordinates he gave but then open the arm menu (ctrl space) where you can still see the stats. Use the x+, x-, y+,y- etc. to change x, y and z to read the same as what it did in the video (x=--948, y=+3, z= --475). You should then be able to grapple it :)

    Still cant work the second bit though :S

  • @adob193 Thanks!

  • The correct order for grappling unity is 214563

  • During the first sequence when you move the arm..for some reason..after the sequence was finished..I cannot press the grapple button.

  • When you put Unity to docking port you forgot to put joint number for joint 6 when entering coordinates. No idea what that number even does as it dosen't really seem to move that arm too much.
