After only uploading (comparably) small Vizzys for a while I'm now finally working on a big project again. If you only want to know what I'm working on you can skip to the end, otherwise, here's a bit about the background:

Over the last 2.5 years I've uploaded some vastly different Vizzys, from rockets to drones. Even though my more recent crafts - by far the most successful ones - are much better, I've never forgotten how it all started. It wasn't creative at all and implemented horribly (the last version had 185 kB - just the Vizzy), it still was a great project, and to date the one with the most updates. Without it, I would never have been able to make other Vizzys like the drone work. Many of you can probably already guess, but now, finally, the big reveal:

I'm redoing SpaceX Starship | Vizzy from scratch - new Vizzy, new rocket.

I know, some of you would prefer another MFD or some other Vizzy - I know, there already are many Starships on the site, but a poll on our discord had a clear result: 100% Yes - 0% No. So I'm going to use the time when there is nothing going on here anyway (don't worry - it's not gonna take all winter) to redo it.

To get exclusive demos, join Juno Vizzy Team.

New Rocket:
Starship 24 With Cargo Bay and Starlink V2 by CassioExtremo


Development status:

As of 22 October

Done:

  • Circular orbits at any altitude
  • Auto-Cam
  • Time + Status display
  • Auto-Explode (testing pending)

Partly done:

  • Lunar flights (transfer window calculation + landing need to be improved)
  • Auto-Landing on Droo (technically works, but heat damage currently has to be turned off)

Needs to be done:

  • Booster landing

Removed features:

  • 20 km hop (new starship has a booster, so hop can't be done anymore)
  • Non-circular orbit (useless - circular orbits now are much more efficient than before)

    @Aludra877 Hey brother, sure, I'm happy to help. I'll need to see the issue and probably experiment a bit on that one, so it'd be great if you can send me the weapon

    Hey brother, I need your help, you got any vizzy advice? I'm trying to mimic a shot counter system for the commonwealth standard service Plasma weapon and I'm having trouble making the counter start up again after reactivating the part and activation group, any advice? If you want I can upload the weapon and you can see the issue from there.

    Live long and prosper
