Looking for a free to play spacecraft simulator, Just want to mess around with orbits and fuel/reaction mass without to much investment.
I have found a few
- Orbiter 2016
- SpaceEngine
- Pioneer
But I'm not sure how well these do orbital simulation, also being on mac makes it difficult.
Thank for the help.

Pioneer does patched conics. Orbiter, IIRC does detailed physical simulation - including stuff like tidal forces tugging on elongated objects. SE tries to generate realistic universe while being purty AF.
