TM,

Have you looked at the ssc file? Better yet, do you have an ssc file which describes the orbit? What is the value in the line:
SemiMajorAxis :?:

I'd check that value first, and without more information concerning your system and layout, that's about all the help I'll be. :wink:

Take care, Bob

Hello T.M.
I wonder if you are referring to the atlantis launch model ?
As Bob says, we need to see your .ssc settings.

Don't bother with that ssc, its easier just to change Earth's radius to suit. (I made that ssc btw!)

Try setting earth's radius (in solarsys.ssc) to

Code: Select all

   Radius 6378


and tell us what the results are.
