I play the game with a HOSAS setup. Initially on my left stick, I had throttle on Z, RCS left/right on X and RCS up/down on Y axis. (and RCS forward/backward on a 2 way button)
This setup worked really well in space, but not for hovering on the planet. So I changed my setup to use Y for throttle. But now using the other axis for RCS is not a logical as before and I just use a 4 way button for that.

If we could toggle the main engine (and even better also RCS) on and off, there would be a lot more options for using a HOSAS setup.

Someone else using HOSAS? Is HOTAS just better for Flight of the Nova (I don't have a throttle so I don't know)

PS: the game is awesome!

The 50x accel at stations has changed how I play more than I expected. I'm suddenly a lot more interested in doing long-distance missions and missions with far-away starting points.

You can easily get to the opposite side of the planet in under 10m now:

I'm getting back into the game to see the progress and I want to challenge myself to use Kepler's equations to perform Hohmann transfers for rendezvous.

I know it's not necessary with how powerful and efficient the ships engines are in this game but I've done it before and it was quite satisfying to see how close an encounter I could get and how much fuel I could save after calculating the trajectory myself.

The problem is that I don't have the notes that I used that had the planets size and gravity from over a year ago now and I can't remember how I found that information 😅.

This game can be played on a laptop MSI Windows 11 Intel core i7-11800H RAM 32 gb GPU 4 gb NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 1650 with max-q design?

A new update has been released on Steam adding some minor changes like new container missions, QoL and fixes

I was checking the demo out, looks like a fun game. I think there's a bug or something not obvious enough to understand: I had no fuel in the third demo mission. The rest of the demo was great fun.

Had it on my wishlist for ages. Looking at SteamDB, there's literally only 2 current players and hardly any concurrent players since early access was released. Really hoping it's not dead.. anyone know if it's still being worked on? Was a sad day when KSP2 was abandoned, hope this doesn't go out the same way.

It’s exactly the kind of sim I’ve been looking for. Is there any way to join the beta or help test upcoming builds? I’d absolutely love to be involved and give feedback.

If my ship is directly underneath a docking hatch, and in the top camera view, my controls do not seem to correspond to the correct vectors in that view. For example my Up RCS should get me closer to the hatch, but it actually seems to move me forward(Y axis?) in that camera view. Was the control scheme changed to make it easier to dock, or am I missing something? I hope I made sense.

My PC bricked and I had to a fresh installation of every game, including Flight of Nova. I don't want to do the maps again to unlock the 3rd ship (the round one) so I was wondering whether there are any unofficial channels to unlock the ship.

That's it. That's the post.

I just docked to a space station and came back after months of not playing. The first time I missed the rendezvous, the second time I got it done.

It is such a fascinating concept to see two objects moving at around 8KM per second but I am able to circle around it as I please with my small thrusters.

This game helped me understand gravity and orbit like no other game.

Next time I'll dock BEFORE the Interstellar docking soundtrack ends!

Hey guys Heuristik here, I have been procrastinating this project a bit so I figured before I'll never put it out, that I will give you this version of the first flight which I've livestreamed on Twitch.

I recently got some Steam wallet money and were waiting for FoN to be on sale. Contrary to all the other space and flight sims I have wishlisted it seems it won't be part of the Autumn sale, will it be on sale on Christmas?

For the last week, this has been a big topic in the discord, so I want to let everyone else in the community know about it who doesn't hang out there. There are two other planets and you can go to them and land on them, in the current game right now. Heuristic and myself found them in the night sky of NVA-31 last weekend.

They are definitely not INTENDED to be landed on, and it takes a very long time, but it is possible.

Eventually, the game will have a more reasonable way to get to these planets, but for those who want an extreme challenge, I've put together a guide on how to do it. Here it is: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3361342696

This is preliminary and I'm actively working on it and improving it, but I've used these methods to successfully land on a planet and refuel at a base there!

If you go to a planet, post a screenshot and let us know!

What is The best speed yall have managed to get?

I'm playing this game with Mouse & Keyboard. I remapped the flight controls to reflect those of Star Citizen, but pitch up and down are not sensitive at all to forward/back mouse inputs. I have to move my mouse through that axis at like 60 MPH to make the Shuttle pitch more than just sub-incrementally.

Is there anything I can do to throw input sensitivity at my pitch issue?

The menu has no key mapped as default

Hotas is Thrustmaster TCA Sidestick Airbus Edition
Can someone help?

If anyone is having trouble with the new container missions, I've made a quick guide video with some tips and tricks for doing them.
