Better orbit/data overlay?
Turner replied to Turner's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
Thanks! I'll check this out. Any suggestions on getting more hours in a day? -
Hi all, Thought I posted yesterday but can't find it, so please forgive me if this is a repeat... Anyway - pretty new to this and I'm trying to find out if there are some addons that will let me do a few primary things: 1) Better orbit/maneuver node display - the stock one is OK but I find I'm constantly adjusting the view to see what I'm doing, not to mention (ok, to mention) having critical things hidden behind the navball. 2) Something akin to cockpit instrumentation that's 1) possibly like MechJeb, if that allows readouts without autopilot, and 2) something that can be overlayed like MechJeb. 3) Is there a "comprehensive" cockpit view that has a panel with this type of stuff? Maybe MechJeb is one solution but I don't know enough about it yet. Any leads appreciated! Thanks, Andrew

Keyboard stops working - OSX
Turner replied to Turner's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
lol... yeah, that's it. -
Title says it all... This time: 7 minutes into flight, waiting for maneuver... maneuver complete... then many keyboard commands just stop working. I'm on OSX - not sure if that's related. Haven't tried on PC yet. Any ideas? thanks Andrew

Yeah, that's the thing, though - are fairings really that heavy? I would think they should be really light. Not massless, just light.
-
Just asked in another post... I think they're really heavy. Not sure yet.
-
Are fairings... "heavy" ? While they can help get your craft smoothed out, it seems - thin as they may be - that they're made of lead or something. Any ideas?
-
This is a great idea.

Gigantor = atmospheric brake

That's not gliding... that's falling with style! -
Thank guys!

I'm sure this has been discovered, but... Related to my other thread about new orbiting techniques... I launched a little Stayputnik with solar panels and some batteries just to practice getting into orbit. I thought I was there, but realized I messed up and ran out of fuel. Seeing that my path took me back to the surface, I figured, hey, I'll watch it burn up. However, with panels extended from space, the craft slowed enough so that it never heated up. : ) Is this a bug?

I was looking for orbital instructions, and found that the guide in the Wiki notes that it's outdated because of the new atmosphere modeling. So.... what's the new technique? thanks, Andrew
