Okay, glObalist:
I waited patiently until I got the launch window for Mir, which seemed to take forever, then I
launched from the Cape. I managed to intercept Mir within about 1/2 an orbit! I had never done
this fast an intercept before! WOW!
I then docked to port 1 and was able to refuel with no
problem.
Is this only a problem with Mir? Can you refuel at the ISS, etc.? Have you installed an addon to
Orbiter that may have modified Mir's configuration?
If you haven't done this already, I suggest you install another copy of Orbiter 031217 on your
system with only the OrbiterSound and DeltaGliderII addons installed. Then test fly the mission to
Mir again, and see if you can refuel. Save the scenario while docked, but prior to trying to refuel.
If the refueling works, then add an addon and try to refuel again. Continue these steps until the
refueling ceases to work. That should tell you which addon is causing the conflict/problem with
refueling.
Of course, if the refueling doesn't work the first time, I have no clue what it could be.
You
could try downloading the DG2 and OrbiterSound addons from this site again. Maybe something
got corrupted.
