Tips for the Demo<br />
� The Launchpad is the dialog box where you set <strong>Orbiter</strong><br />
parameters and choose and launch scenarios<br />
� The Smack! scenario is in the Delta-Glider folder on the<br />
Scenario tab of the Launchpad<br />
� Most digital projectors handle 1024 x 768*, so set this full<br />
screen resolution (and 32 bit color if possible) on the Video<br />
tab of the Launchpad dialog box<br />
� Use R and T to slow down and speed up time, and<br />
Control-P to pause<br />
� Use F1 to switch between internal and external views (updown<br />
arrows to slide the control panel down-up), use F3 to<br />
display a list of spacecraft for switching ships<br />
� It’s not essential to slow down time to allow doing everything<br />
for the two spacecraft at nearly the same time as the book<br />
suggests (it just looks cool to see them moving close together<br />
“in synch”), so if you find it easier to do or explain, just stay at<br />
normal time, boost one spacecraft to the higher orbit, then do<br />
the other one separately (or just skip it)<br />
* 800x600 works too, but requires arrow-key scrolling to see all the instrument panel buttons
