User Instructions

Preflight
- Go to Monkey Brain Launch Site located at Meier island OR Oneill Airbase
- Spawn the mission via the mission editor "Final pad Titan II GLV"
- Make your way up the side staircase
- Make your way between the building and rocket, you will find a large elevator
- Behind the elevator there are buttons controlling lighting, you may enable those:
1. Egress - Those lights are the basics for the pad and an emergency evacuation
2. Spots - Additional spotlights that illuminate the rocket and launch pad, recommended but not required
3. Full - Lights up the umbilical tower, only recommended for taking cinematic shots or screenshots
4. Infra min - Recommended, lights at the top of the moving building
5. Infra all - Lights up every floor of the moving building, only recommended for cinematics
- Go in front of the elevator and ride it up (gate button on the side of the elevator)
- Once at the top, turn left and take the narrow corridor across the walkway and into the moving building
- Enter the room labeled "Access to prep room", on your left you may use the key switch for lights
- Enter the second room and equip gear, the spacesuit OR player damage disabled is MANDATORY for flying
- Once geared up, go through the door on the left called "Access to Spacecraft
- Open the spacecraft doors and sit inside

Spacecraft preparations
- Enter the commander or pilot seat of the spacecraft
- Close hatches with buttons located on your outer side
- right by your head, flip on the SM - Capsule Electrical Connection breaker, it will now point towards you
- On the middle by your hands, flip on Main avionics, you may turn on lights if wanted (recommended)
- On the center of the instrumentation panels, ensure that the "Stage 1 prop pressure (atm)" is reading approximately 100, then check "Stage 2 prop pressure (atm)" is reading between 109 and 112

ENCODER/DECODER
- The decoder is positioned between the two astronauts, initially used to communicate with the Agena Target Vehicle
- Press Cycle 10s twice until the gauge reads "20"
- Press Cycle 1s four times until the gauge reads "24"
- Press toggle state once, the white side panels should pull away
- Press Cycle 1s once again, the gauge should now read 25
- Press toggle state once, and the tower will pull away
Wait until the tower clears away before resuming instructions

- On the center, enable Stage 1 arm/cutoff
- On the left, enable 5s Firing command
Water will begin pouring down on the pad, as the engine prepares the last 5 seconds before liftoff, then engines will ignite and the rocket will liftoff soon due to a bug, there is a 1/10 chance it fails, unfortunately just restart if it does
The mission timer will enable itself upon liftoff, you may manually trigger it using the manual timer trigger next to it

Staging and space
Staging happens at 19 atm stage 1 pressure, it will automatically pick up with the second stage, NO HUMAN INTERACTIONS NEEDED
- Once you come past 40km, the altimeter will read out 0 due to sensors ceasing to function, flip on Switch to Astronomy Unit, it will switch onto the secondary unit and you will regain instruments
- At around 120km of altitude, speed will have dropped quite low and the engines will want to cut off, once it odes:
- On the right side, enable Service Module rotation lock, on the top RCS panel, enable RCS - Main Enable
- On the center, flip on Stage 2 arm/cutoff AND OFF AGAIN, this will override cut the engine, then double tap "Stage 2 FORCE STAGING", this will separate the 2nd stage
- On the left, enable Fire Service Module Engines for a couple seconds to clear the second stage
- After that, you may disable Service Module rotation lock[/quote]

You may exit the spacecraft at your own risk, use the handles on the outside, or use the rope and rope anchor (2m optimal)

RCS Maneuvers
REMOTE CONTROL CHANNEL 5 FOR CONTROLLING
This spacecraft features my first RCS system, it works somewhat but can be complicated
The main RCS and Service Module Engine use the same Nitrogen supply!
1. CM RCS - Capsule thrusters, for rotation only
2. Main RCS - Service Module thrusters, for rotation only
3. AUX RCS - Reentry Module thrusters, for rotation AND translations
The main controls for roation use WASD and left/right arrows, when using translation (by pressing 1, the light between the seats will show green[n], the left/right arrows are replaced with up/down arrows for forwards/backwards
- Enabling RCS Mode (pulse,continuous), you switch from controlling in regular bursts, to controlling with single bursts, sadly I cannot change the sensitivity of axis on remotes, so the workaround is impractical.
- Enabling either rotation locks (right) will also require the assosciated RCS (Service=Main/Reentry=AUX) to be enabled to come into function

Reentry and landing
Due to the basic and suborbital nature of this flight, firing the reentry module is not necessary, however it can help change your landing zone depending on where you fire

SKIP THIS BOX IF YOU WANT TO SKIP FIRING THE REENTRY MODULE
- Orient the spacecraft as wanted
- On the right, double tap Service Module jettison and wait for the Service Module to clear away
- On the right, enable Reentry Module rotation lock, then RCS - AUX Enable
- On the left, enable Fire Reentry Module Engines for the desired duration
- Once done, disable the lock and RCS

- Before reaching 40km, on the right, double tap Reentry Module jettison and wait for the Reentry module to clear away
- Once you pass below the 40km, you may disable Switch to Astronomy Unit
- I recommend clearing the nose cone at around 2000m, by enabling discard nose cone
- At around between 1500m and 750m, enable Fire chute
- If you are going to land in the water, I recommend setting the lights to either red, or off
If you do not feel safe landing, you can discard the spacesuit, and take the parachute stored behind your back, accessible via a small gap, and jump from the spacecraft

Tips
- In case of battery loss, you can switch on Backup Avionics and turn off Main Avionics
- You have a manual timer at your service, to enable/disable it, you can use the flip switch called Enable/Disable Manual timer, you can reset it with the Reset manual timer arrow button, I personally use it for timing the time spent in vacuum (>40km)
- While the "Time to Reentry" gauge may be very inaccurate due to acceleration changes, it is good to keep an eye out for altitude, for reentering the atmosphere will on a spacewalk will lead to a very likely death
- Yup there are docking connectors and an Encoder, sadly no Agena due to the Titan II's performance.
