Screen shot of the OrbitX Flight Module from June 2020.

OrbitX is a software package developed by Patrick Melanson and collaborators, as a remake of Dr Magwood's Orbit software. OrbitX is coded in Python in contrast to Orbit's FreeBasic.

The full Orbit suite simulates the flight of the Habitat, as well as its environmental and electrical subsystems. As of June 2020, OrbitX has remade the flight code and the networking code, which allows OrbitX's flight module to interact with the modules of OrbitV.

OrbitX is still under development, and contributors are directed to the github repo.
