I was finally able to upgrade from a cobra to an anaconda last night, but haven't flown it yet. Off to go try it (out) now. Wish me luck.
I got there with a 30.00 Logitech pro 3d joystick.
Remember, crashes cost; kill your speed, not your credit balance.

I have the Hotas system as well, very good unit! I have actually used it for a few games now. Worth the investment.

I have always been interested in astronomy so it was pretty cool for me to read that even the game's math logic predicts what we scientists observe today without even specifically coding for it. Well at least thats what i got from that anyway.

You'd probably be surprised how much game code is based on real-world models.

The stellar forge uses first principles to create the universe and has made some interesting systems already. Observation has proven (most of) them correct so far. The touching binary planets or figure 8 planets and stars are most interesting indeed.
