@HappyKoala every time I open it up I get discouraged because you mention so many things that it can do but there are no visual clues or an obvious help feature.

I've decided to give up on trying to use it until you put something together.

I'm sure you've thought about it but figured it will take too much time to do it right. I'll strongly recommend you do it less right, but a lot sooner. Wall of text, screenshots with arrows, anything, just... something!

@called2voyage that looks like it was quite a lot of work! I'll have a look at your list tomorrow...

@uhoh Might record some tutorials and put them on YouTube... But as I've stated many times, I'm not paid to work on Harmony of the Spheres, and I always work on things that present me with a technical challenge or let me learn something new programming wise.

That said, I don't think figuring out how things work should be all that difficult. For instance, load the Earth Moon scenario, position the camera above the North Pole of Earth and open the add tab. Once there, increase the semi-major axis so that you see a green circle - that is the orbit of the body you are about to add. If you modify any of its orbital elements, you will see how the shape of the circle turns into an ellipse with some orientation

Then there's a menu of masses, you can select Pluto from the dwarf planet tab, and then you just click add and tada, you have Pluto in orbit around Earth

And if you open the for all mankind scenario, you will see right away that there is a menu with lambert solver inputs... Enter the inputs, click on generate trajectory and then play... Away you go

But I'll let you know as soon as I have something on youtube

@HappyKoala okay thanks! Even that is helpful, I'll take a look today :-)

By off chance has anyone here tried making an account on unmannedspaceflight.com forums by Emily Lakdawalla?
