Using a joystick -- Is there a way to "auto-trim"?

I have just begun using a Logitech Extreme 3D Pro joystick.  I have calibrated it in Windows, and that worked fine.  I am liking using the joystick with one problem.  It is very difficult to keep the nose down when flying in an atmosphere.  If I let go of the stick, the nose of the craft will go up,...

Troubleshooting and bug reports - SpaceEngine 0.990

Previous versions of Space Engine have had a reverse time button.  [...] I used the "tardis" cheat in the in-game console several months ago, and it worked.  I still have it there, but it no longer works.  Maybe a recent update has eliminated its usefulness.  Is it a big deal to have the ...

Reverse time button.

Previous versions of Space Engine have had a reverse time button.  I found this extremely useful.  There are times when I want to rotate a planet in reverse time just a bit, or maybe move the planet or moon slightly in reverse in its orbit.  Without this button, I must rotate the planet or moon almo...

General suggestions for SpaceEngine

In reply to Mosfat's post of 22 Dec 2019, adding "tardis" to the in-game console worked.  Thanks a lot for the tip.  I used it when making a video several months ago.  I have not used the Flight Simulator since, but was going to give it a try again today, but noticed the "reverse time...

General suggestions for SpaceEngine

In 0.9.9.0, when using the Flight Simulator, there is no "reverse time speed" button.  I found this extremely useful in 0.9.8.0 when putting a spaceship in a low orbit, when planning an atmospheric entry, and in general useful when making videos.  When a particular trajectory doesn't work ...

Troubleshooting and bug reports - SpaceEngine 0.9.8.0

Thanks, Mosfet, for the quick answer.  That's kind of what I thought, but I thought it was important enough to ask.

Troubleshooting and bug reports - SpaceEngine 0.9.8.0

This seems to be a problem with Space Engine software.  When traveling over a water surface and the star near the horizon, the star's reflection continues off the water even when the star becomes hidden behind an object like a mountain or hill.  I haven't been able to find anyone else referring to t...

Copyright / Music for ingame records

Thanks HarbingerDawn for your reply.  This is in regards to my post 04 Apr 2017, and your response 26 Jul 1017.  I understand the copyright for the music belongs to the music artist.  I have gotten permission to use the music.  The copyright claim is posted by a digital music company, and apparently...

Your SpaceEngine Videos

Here is one of my 8 Space Engine videos.  It's my attempt to simulate looking out the cockpit window of an aircraft while flying over an Earth-like planet with rings.  Comments are welcome here or on You Tube.  My other videos are on You Tube at Hap N Stance.  Thanks.

Sending locations to others.

Just curious.  How do you feel when someone asks for the location of a planet in one of your Space Engine videos?  I hesitate to reveal my planet locations in my You Tube videos.  Maybe this sounds strange, but it takes time to search for and find a really beautiful planet.  Seems like the person as...

Copyright / Music for ingame records

I have posted a video on You Tube using Space Engine.  I have used a copyrighted song, and have gotten permission from the artists to use it.  After posting the video, I see there is a copyright claim by a music company, and apparently it is legitimate, and they can put ads on my video.  No ads yet,...
