Starship Space Program: a Kerbal-like Starship flight sim in UE5 (early alpha)

Starship Space Program is a Starship and Super Heavy flight sim for Windows PC: hops, hot staging, the booster catch on the tower, and on to orbit.

A few things other UE devs might find interesting:

  • The vehicle physics are my own 6-DOF model, stepped at 500 Hz in double precision, with the Unreal actors following it.
  • The planet is scaled space with a 16k Earth and night lights; orbits are n-body from JPL ephemerides.
  • Starbase is built from lidar, aerial imagery and Sentinel-2 ground albedo.
  • All lighting is dynamic (Lumen on High/Epic) with a physical Sun and exposure.
  • The UI is pure Slate, no widget blueprints.
