  1. Hello, I am trying to to launch a vessel to go to all Planets, and other objects, and want to know how much fuel I would require. Flight path: Kerbin > Mun > Minmus > Duna > Dres > Jool > Eeloo. I can go Kerbin Mun Minmus Duna directky but when I arrive at Duna I have to pause for a few years. Then to Dres and maybe pause. Then to Jool and Eeloo.
  2. Hello, I am trying to make a probe to fly from Kerbin to Duna and all the rest of the outer planets. The closest I could find to a forum of this was a challenge: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/37974-Optimal-gravity-assisted-grand-tour-%28AKA-Voyager-like-mission%29-challenge?highlight=Voyager+flight+path - However it was not sufficient. Gameplay question: Is it possible to do a Voyager flight path - http://abyss.uoregon.edu/~js/images/voy_traj.jpg (or similar) - with as Little as a ion Engine, Voyager didn't use much more it relied on gravitational propulsion. Tutorial question: A date when it would be at all possible would be appreciated and/or even a finished flight path.
  3. Didn't work. I guess I have to use '.' to speed up time. Also Red Iron Crown, nekogod, I just have to press '.' - Without the single quotation marks.
  4. But now the game has been tweaked to be much more sensitive, that is based upon your answer. Therefore a minimal thrust might work, I'm off to test that theory.
  5. Weird, I could go full up on the warp on a alpha version 23 or something.
  6. Hello, I can't use the warp function to speed up time when using a ion Engine.. it's quite ridiculous that Squad did not make warp function with ion Engines, It worked Before the 1.0's but not not. Am I to understand that I am going to sit and wait 20 minutes for my flight path to be made? Or is there a way to warp with Ion Engines?
  7. Perphas I should have offered more details. Do you need to research the Farings first? If so.. I cannot find a aerodynamic IIRC.
  8. Hello, where are the fairings? I've looked and cannot find them.
  9. Megadeath, there is no language barrier here, unless you do not understand English. Let me reiterate: ''Hello, the current time-frame of the Kerbal nation(s) - I would like to know. Man began their time-travel in 1957. I would just like to know, to get a sense of the time, what year it is in Kerbal''. - In this I ask: What year is in in Kerbal, in Earth it is 2015 (by Christian calender, but I assume the KSP developers didn't consider to input different time Schedules). In my rephrasal I sad: ''Perhaps I should rephrase my question: Day 1, Year 1 is how long the Kerbal Space Program has been, correct? What time, in Kerbal time measuring units, are the Kerbals in? 4249? What time is the Kerbal time, from the question above, converted into Human time? 1950?'' - This all elaborate the first question. 'Day 1, Year 1' Count is to know how long the Kerbal Space Program has been operational, not the general time Count of the Kerbals. In Kerbal time measuring units (normal Kerbal Clock); what is the Kerbal time? 1256? Year 1? 1958? If we where to convert the time we recive from the question above this one; what time is the Kerbal population in Earth standards? Kerbal time (year 1, day 1) > Eart time (1958) ? Star Trek doesn't take Place in our Universe yet we can convert star-dates to Earth time. And in the end the fault for this dilemma is the developers at Squad, KSP creators.' Not sorry for the long post, as you didn't understand the smaller counter-parts.
  10. Your own argument disproves itself: When they decided to start a space program (when you make a new save game) is when they decided that they need to actually measure time in order to make calculations for spaceflight. Therefore, they invented time once it was needed. There was never any timekeeping or calendars before year 0 day 1.'' - So they didn't need to keep time when to awake and go to work and build the KSP? So they didn't need time to know when they had a date? So the Kerbals didn't need time Before the KSP (Rhetorical)? They did, otherwise there wouldn't be a KSP.
  11. Pecan, Just because the KSP gets latters at a later Point doesn't mean they don't exists. Nasa's first years didn't utilize a Thermal Protection System, that doesn't mean we didn't have the Technology. - - - Updated - - - Twenting, yeah that's what I am saying but the time of the Kerbals is not irrelevant. If so then you knowing different time zones are irrelevant. - - - Updated - - - Evantis, that theory is not backed up by ''The fact that Jeb still smiles if I leave him on Eve for a couple centuries'' . - That just suggest that he is insane, hence the 'BadS' Trait. Or bad developing. And you can 'prefer' all you want; that does not mean anything, such as the Kerbals perception of time. It is what it is, preferals does not change that. - - - Updated - - - Cantab, yeah I said that. - - - Updated - - - I suppose the time-frame will never be known. Only how long the KSP has been operational.
  12. I still do not consider this question answere. Pecan answer suggest that: * When the Kerbals achieved space travel they reset the time, like Humans with the 'birth of christ'. But that doesn't say what their time is. * Or the link Nookos provided which say ''Day 1 Year 1 is Jan 1 1951 at midnight GMT'' - Kerbal time > Earth time. Perhaps I should rephrase my question: Day 1, Year 1 is how long the Kerbal Space Program has been, correct? What time, in Kerbal time measuring units, are the Kerbals in? 4249? What time is the Kerbal time, from the question above, converted into Human time? 1950?
  13. Hello, the current time-frame of the Kerbal nation(s) - I would like to know. Man began their time-travel in 1957. I would just like to know, to get a sense of the time, what year it is in Kerbal.
  14. What I've learned is if it's a rare bug: you only get it once. (But maybe it's because it's a human error )
  15. If I manage to get that kind of orbit would it be moved to the centre of the planet after a while? As that might explain why my Lunar orbit changed (or it was a error on my part).
