Nope- in fact that's part of rule #1 in the OP.

Couldn't find the software vs. hardware setting, but I was able to locate and set the other three- much much smoother then my last attempt. No clue if it was one of those in particular or a combination of all three that did it though... Doubt it was the frame rate though, I know I've toyed with that in the past.

Thank you- that seems to have worked!

Not really sure where else to put this, so If a mod or admin could tow this to the right spot if I'm guessing wrong, that would be great. Thanks. See, the thing is I'm trying to use OBS to record my Elcano attempt, but every time I try, all I get is either a still image or like a slideshow. Is there a specific way I need to set OBS up for it to cooperate with KSP, or is there another free software I can use instead that works better?

I think I explain everything adequately in the videos, but I'll just put down a couple stats here. 35 Pit Stops 1 Lander/Return Vehicle Valentina Kerman and one long walk of 1,256 KM total. This will take a little while. Please don't expect daily updates. Apologizes for part one having gotten messed up. I think I must have accidentally hit my recording hotkey twice instead of once at some point.

That would be me. Now... @Claw?

Now with solar powered guidance, 335.6 m/s. I think I lost one of the rear fins- would explain the puff of smoke I saw each run- had a hard time timing the pause.

Well... Solar panels are merely suggested in the OP besides.

259.8 m/s Took this right before leaving the runway- veered off to the left. And since the actual craft is hidden by the pause menu...

A little over 3k vacuum should do it- can't really say for atmo, as I never really use that setting, but that probably needs to be a good bit higher. Not that too much fuel is really a bad thing anyway- just gives you a bigger margin of error.

That would be time to Ap. 40 seconds should result in a much shallower ascent then the current default of 50. Might also help to set the minimum throttle setting lower.

Man- some of the defaults are way different from what they used to be. Time to Ap is 50 now instead of 40, roll defaults to 0 instead of -90(which kept rockets from rolling unnecessarily into an equatorial orbit.) and the big one is how sensitivity is .5 instead of .2- huge difference in the Pe between those two. Any way to change these back without having to do it every launch?

Kerbal maps says 1390.9353 m

Have not forgotten about this, and am still planning on doing it, but was forced to restart my game after the memory stick my install was on got broken. Just got the first Pit Stop down at a few meters away from 0°W, 0°N. The terrain seams are visible, and the landing legs are rapidly clipping in and out of the ground a little bit. 1.0.5 still as I'm still using an older computer. Also one with a rather small screen as you can probably tell.

Still in 1.0.5 due to things on my end, so I can't help directly, but I do have a couple of ideas: 1,000 Kickbacks pointed straight down, side by side, 100x100, on the pad or runway(or wherever something that big would fit), all firing at once. Should test thrust limits. A ton of decouplers/stack separators on the same craft, all on the same stage. Tests the creation of many craft at once, number of separate craft in physics/model range, and stability of such creations. As much LF, LF/O, Monopropellant, Xenon, and ore as one has the patience to assemble, likely with a different craft for each fuel mix and ore. See how fast you can get such a craft going after getting it into space- likely by save file editing.

Brown Dwarf =/= Protostar for one...

Can answer the second with a quick look at Kerbal Maps- Open water with a depth of 809m and a slope of 2°. Don't know the answer to the first though.

I always just use GravityTurn- two clicks, and I'm on my way to space. Usually. Especially good for me as I have a slow computer. No official 1.1.3 release, but there is a recompile on the last page of the thread. I'm still on 1.0.5 due to issues on my end, so I get to use an official release.

Do you mean Rubble Piles?

I've gotten a couple of in-game photos of the island in question, taken during a launch. Hopefully these will be helpful.

Poking around Kerbal Maps, I think I have two more impacts on Kerbin. This first one must be of some age, as a river has since cut across it. I'm somewhat less confident in this other one, simply because of how big it is in relation to the island. On second look though, I see a far clearer one at top left.

Been watching this thread, and I just decided to throw together an idea for an Ion puller unit- I don't have any experience uploading or downloading craft files or saves, but you should be able to put it together from this screenshot. The docking port is kind of finicky, and it's not properly attached here. The long I-beam is the root part. Xenon sold separately. Edit: Forgot to mention that ideally their should be a probe core or command pod next to this with an upward/forwards orientation to control from.

Found out about this mod from KottabosGames- looks to be what you want.

Also an "and" statement I would expect.
