Saturn V take off #79

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
The Saturn V main engines wouldn´t lift the rocket

1. Load a custom mission with the Saturn V in the platform
2. go to Window/Structure View
3. Select the S-IC module
4. Select each engine and arm them
5. Press ctrl+0 for max throttle (previous shift throttle to man in the control 
panel)

-What is the expected output?

I expect the rocket to climb

- What do you see instead?

The rocket slams into the floor

-What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Exoflight 0.1.3 on OSX 10.5.8

-Please provide any additional information below.

I can make the rocket lift off by setting the launch in automatic which is 
pretty weird since the normal 
way wouldn´t go up. Another problem is I can´t make out all the inputs, what 
they mean even with the 
original Saturn V flight plan, a bigger and more complete glossary is needed.

Ignite the engines 6 seconds BEFORE liftoff to build up thrust.
