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 (possibly catch)

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)
