How do I manipulate the Canadarm on the ISS so that I can for ex. grab a medical container? Also is there a way to
put it INSIDE the ISS, like a cargo-bay? Thnx!
PS: I have the Mmu comp. ISS installed...


Go outside, the graphics are amazing...

I don't know if you press [Ctrl] + [Space] like Space Shuttle Atlantis.

you should check your documents in the orbiter folder there is a file called "ssrms manual" there you'l find every
control to operate the stations' arm also check "iss manual"

you can grab a cargo container butt i don't think you can put it inside the ISS but i think you can let the cargo
container dock with the station.

now i have a question :)

does anybody know, if there is a trick or solution , to put several diffirent space station building blocks into orbit and
all dock them so that is 1 big space station. (i know that is possible, that's what i'm doing right now :) ) but after that
do something like convert them into 1 big space station like ISS, so that in the list you don't see all the diffirent names
of those modules but in the place just 1 name for the entire station and use mmu comp. on that ship?

Okay I have neither the ssrms manual nor the Iss manual... so where are you getting these docs?

If you download ISS fleet from hangar mods, you will find the manual for the ssrms and the manual for the iss itself, in
the download file

You would think UMMU would be concidered a standard by now....

Well, there are reasons to not adopt UMMU and they are not really few. For example, sometimes, you want to have special EVA
features, which UMMU does not have. Or you have a unmanned spacecraft.

Well, unmanned spacecraft obviously don't need UMMU, but...

Why would you want to spend ages making an eva system that isn't compatible with anything else when there already is one?

Would you use Windows XP or (standard flavor) Linux, when you need a real-time operating system? A Pentium 4 CPU, when you
need a DSP?

Standards have advantages, but they also have the disadvantages that can be well summarized with your post: Why develop
something new? There is already a standard. We have always done it like that.

Fair enough. Although I should ask what you mean with the comparisons... Don't worry, I'll look 'em up on Wikipedia.
