Hi All,

Posted my first attempt at an automated launcher.
As noted, 20,000kg to 200km orbit with about 1500dv available in a fully fueled 2nd stage

if the 2nd stage is removed, total payload weight is over 80,000kg

I'm particularly happy with the way I setup a subsytem to keep variables up to date, and then reference those in memory variables rather than calls to craft properties.

    @crowxe well create variable is one thing. What I am explaining is that I maintain a seperate 'thread' that is dedicated for updating all the variables in the program, on a predetermined interval. This helps flatten/frame the input data for the whole program, and avoid some pitfalls in the process

    @Nethereal is that the create variable thing? I was suffering until I knew how to do it . It's awesome, is this what you're referring to?

    @crowxe just means that you’re have a system to maintain variable values, and that I use those variables than the craft attributes/properties for example

    I did some good work with vizzy too but I'm sure I'm using complicated lines to compensate for my lack of knowledge with vizzy. That being said, I hope you can explain your following segment in simple English "subsytem to keep variables up to date, and then reference those in memory variables rather than calls to craft properties"
