The Orbital Launch and Integration Tower (OLIT)

Starship Pad 2's gantry (OLIT-3) is designed to rapidly increase launch capacity, featuring upgraded, shorter "chopstick" arms for quicker, more precise catches of the Starship upper stage, especially for V3 vehicles. It supports, stacks, fuels, and catches both Super Heavy and Starship, with integrated deluge, improved structural, and faster turnaround capabilities - Pad 2 with booster


Orbital Launch Mount (OLM) - The main launch pad structure that the SpaceX Starship and Super Heavy booster sit on is called the Orbital Launch Mount (OLM). It has a number of functions:

Booster Hold-Down Clamps - Enlarge - holds the booster down to the pad. Mounted lasers accurately make sure booster is properly positioned for propellant Quick Disconnects

Ship Quick Disconnects(SQD) and Deluge System - SQD's are located on the OLM and on the tower. The 2 SQD's on the launch mount load the booster with propellants. There is another QD on the tower that fuels Starship. These QD's can also drain the fuel if needed - Scroll to 2:13

SQD Arm - fuels Starship. The QD retracts and the arm moves to the side during launch

Fueling


The OLIT's Mechanical Arm also know as "Chopsticks" - stacks the booster and Starship on the OLM


How SpaceX Catches Rockets

I see it in a Club Escape Collection on Steam. I also see it on Google Play and the App Store.

Thanks Marian!

Yes Joan, they were all married.

Good one Mad.

There was no need to come back. After finding myself logged out twice, I just got to wondering if it worked out for you.

The very definition of the term horse----

Way to go Dan.

Thanks flotsam (and Drac)!

I am about 90 minutes of playtime in and to date this is a mixed bag.

The most mixed bit is the save system, which seems to be exclusively based on checkpoints but doesn't tell you when one has been reached. Which has probably contributed 15 minutes of (re)play time to my endeavours, and makes exiting the game a bit hope-and-see.

It also doesn't have the most intuitive interface. What to do is one thing; how to do it is another. I would recommend leaving the hint system on, which will appear top right and will tell you what keys do what, which should make things more manageable. The opening scene with a sailing boat (which of itself is a pretty good buzz) should give you an immediate sense of what I mean. The objective top right will tell you that you need to get the sails down. How you get the game to do your bidding (e.g., pull that rope, wind that winch) is a whole other thing. What keys do what is paramount, so as I said, leave/toggle the hint on.

Having survived my ocean adventure, I have spent my time preparing for a storm to hit. I am Will, a lighthouse keeper, and my first person efforts have involved reading instruments, starting generators and ensuring comms are sound. It looks and sounds good, is voiced, and uses the keyboard to do most things other than interact with the world, which utilises the mouse.

Hotspots appear visually, and things you can interact with 'glow.' Puzzling wise it hasn't been hard to date and having items will cause them to be used if you pick the right place. There seems to be more than one sort of collectible if that is something you enjoy.

I will certainly continue, but am hoping the save game system will be patched.

I would just post it in the What Casual Games Are You Playing Right Now? thread.

Bummer... thanks, flotsam. Guess I'll wait on this one then. I can deal with save-on-exit, but not checkpoints.

Most styles appeal to me, as long as it looks good. But I agree with errrgo that overly pixelated images, anime style (not my thing at all), and jerky animation is not inviting. Pixelation is the only hard limit for me though.
