Community Mod Repository and The Majiir Challenge
sodra replied to Majiir's topic in KSP1 Mods Discussions
Quick question for Majiir. Why do you even have a server that good? It must cost a fortune. -
Thank you, this helped a lot. I now have Mechjeb integration. This is, by far, the best add on I have ever seen for KSP. The quality, integration, and time you spent should be a standard for the modding community. I URGE you to make a command pod or cockpit version when you are ready. Some features need some work and documentation, but this could easily jump start a new IVA revolution. Best. Addon. Ever.

Any one else having trouble getting mechjeb to work in IVA? I have all the latest versions of the mods required, and the latest mechjeb. I have checked the directory for multiples. I love this mod so much, I am going to use it from now on.

How to calculate phase angle for hohmann transfer?
sodra replied to sodra's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
That calculator is only for interplanetary transfers. I do use MechJeb, but I would like to learn how to do a rendezvous by hand, in case I miraculously get trapped inside a Gemini Capsule while in orbit one day, and I need to rendezvous with the ISS and EVA out. -
How to calculate phase angle for hohmann transfer?
sodra replied to sodra's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
Thank you, this is exactly what I needed. I'm using MechJeb to find the information I need, but I'm going to do the burns myself. Seems more fun that way. -
How to calculate phase angle for hohmann transfer?
sodra replied to sodra's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
I know I could do it with maneuver nodes, but doing it by hand it more fun to me. Plus I can do a more accurate rendezvous. -
Lets say I have a space station at a 100km orbit, and a shuttle at 200km orbit. How do I calculate the phase angle for doing the first burn (with the shuttle, to intercept the station) with the least delta-v? EDIT: Please don't refer me to the Scott Manley video. He is an amazing rocketeer, but I can't find the part in the video where he explains it.

Am I understanding this correctly? Mission to capture an asteroid?
sodra replied to Whackjob's topic in KSP1 Discussion
So I just made 2 new careers. And I can confirm, that all the planetary positions are exactly the same on Year 1, Day 1 of all careers. Therefor, they all start on the same date. If Space Travel is such a huge thing to kerbals, they could divide history into "before space travel" and "after space travel", like in Star Trek how they started using stardates for future history after the discovery of the warp drive/first contact. -

sodra replied to Whackjob's topic in KSP1 Discussion
I'm sure a lot of people will start a new career focusing on this asteroid, so it should be named Manley Year1Day1 -
Reminds me of the Russian N1 Rocket, whose first stage is the most powerful rocket ever built.

Uncompressed video, raw footage, Max Settings. "Gundam ship flight"

I rather not get in an argument about Blu-ray and frame rates I'll just ask this... Why? -
Put Scott Manley on Wikipedia - A Community Project
sodra replied to Bigcheecho's topic in KSP Fan Works
Entirely by coincidence, I was looking at the Wikipedia article for Kerbal Space Program. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerbal_space_program Mission Accomplished already? -

Actually, I will post on this thread. Did you just run FRAPS on best quality or something? It seems like it. -
Real life space technology that you immediately recognized from KSP

I don't know about you, but I recognized the Photovoltaic Panels pretty quickly.
