Orthosie in Orbiter
Orthosie was first introduced into Orbiter with the add-on jupiter_v.zip in August 2003. Note that Orthosie is provided by the add-on as S/2001-J 9. To simulate it as Orthosie, the following changes need to be made.
- File:S2001_J9.cfg:
- change the filename to Orthosie.cfg
- change the name in the comment line in the top line to Orthosie (S/2001-J9, Jupiter)
- line 3, change NAME = to Orthosie
- Last line, change the name of Base1 = to Orthosie
- File:J9-Station.cfg
- change the filename to Orthosie-station.cfg
- Line 3, change the name to Orthosie-Station
- File:Jupiter_S2001J9.scn
- change the filename to Jupiter-Orthosie.scn
- Line 2, change J9 Station to Orthosie Station
- Find the GL-01 ship, change STATUS Landed S2001-J9 to Landed Orthosie
- Change BASE J9-Station:1 to Orthosie-Station:1
- File:S2001-J9.tex, change filename to Orthosie.tex
- File:S2001-J9M.BMP, change filename to OrthosieM.BMP
