KSP2 Mission Highlights - It Came From Laythe
astrobond replied to Goddchen's topic in Mission Reports
I think the ground is muddy, so when it is not frozen, we are stuck and the landing gears explode when landing or taking off !!! -
KSP2 Mission Highlights - It Came From Laythe
astrobond replied to Goddchen's topic in Mission Reports
@Goddchen, I found after a lot of tries that this is not the Kraken... To be safe on Laythe, do everything in the Laythe Morning when the temperature is cold !!! -
Thank you @herbal space program As you can see later in this topic, I made a new version of this Lander, with... Vectors lol ! And yes, this is a better choice

Under Pressure KSP2 Mission, Land 10 Kerbals on Eve and back :)
astrobond replied to astrobond's topic in Mission Reports
Hi @Destinesta, yes there is a bug in this mission, sometimes you do not get the credits, happened to me too If you saved your game while back in orbit around Eve, you can try to reload from that file and go back to Kerbin, or you can use the cheat menu to teleport your ship from Eve Orbit to Kerbin surface to end the mission with rewards -
Weekly Challenge #47: Rock Collection
astrobond replied to Dakota's topic in Challenges & Mission Ideas
Hi @ralanboyle, I found that if you land, drive or EVA at the end of the night or early in the morning, the ground is safe, like if the temperature is taken in account on Laythe... Hope this help -

Under Pressure KSP2 Mission, Land 10 Kerbals on Eve and back :)
astrobond replied to astrobond's topic in Mission Reports
Hi @CFTeague2 and Thank you The Upper heat shields can be attached to Radials Decouplers (TT-38K) using xs long struss (ST-XS-4) or Tubes (TOOB-000) for better temperature resist but harder to use in VAB. In the first version of my ship i used small panels (SP-S06), but that was not as good as the other ones (too much parts, weight and can overheat) Hope this help -
@Biggen, Try to time warp to the end of the night or early in the morning on Laythe, I think i found the "problem": The ground is way more stable when the temperature is cold ^^ (also ok for rovers and planes) Hope this help

astrobond replied to astrobond's topic in Mission Reports
@Kirian I forgot to say that when you go back to the mothership and dock, the dV is far better than before you undock the lander, because the weight of the capsule with the 10 Kerbals is light ! so you should have enough dV to go back Kerbin -
Under Pressure KSP2 Mission, Land 10 Kerbals on Eve and back :)
astrobond replied to astrobond's topic in Mission Reports
Hi @Kirian Sorry for that... maybe some "tuned" parts are not in the copy ? You have to set the shields to 50% ablating material (to save weight) , and the landing legs to 0.1 spring and 2 Damper for a better landing. If some parts become hot, try to rotate the ship while aerobraking, that helped me a lot ( and of course save the game while in orbit before trying.... some times it goes wrong for me too ) My landing was done from a 110km orbit, lowering the PE to around 60km. Hope this help -
Lol Thank you @KincaidFrankMF !
