1.0 engine has no electric charge
bondsbw replied to bondsbw's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
Wonderful! I didn't realize all fuel tanks didn't come with oxidizer. Anyway, I appreciate it! -
I mostly haven't played since the 0.24 days, so perhaps this is a recent thing or something new. My ship is pretty basic: My SRB and main stage engine work fine. But when I separate them, I have no electric charge going to my second engine. The parts are stacked as so: chute -> command pod -> heat shield -> stack decoupler -> stabilizer -> rcs tank -> liquid fuel tank (with RCS thrusters on the side) -> LV-T30 "Reliant" engine My SAS and RCS work, so I assume it's not heat shield related. And there is plenty of electric charge in the command pod. But there's 0 getting to that second stage engine. Any ideas? - - - Updated - - - Just noticed, the engineer's report says as much. It is also saying that it isn't receiving oxidizer. I still don't really get what the problem is though...

What planet has the smoothest surface
bondsbw replied to Nebula's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
I'm late to this conversation, but if you do this keep in mind that even if you hit a "sweet spot" orbit where there aren't many mountains, if it's not equatorial then the planet may move mountains into your orbital path. I did this with the Mun, with a 5.2km orbit. I passed right between two big mountains the first orbit, but on the lap back around I hit one of them. -
No pics unfortunately... but today I took my orbiter/lander to Gilly, landed the lander on the surface, and then floated my orbiter up to it and docked while the lander was still on the ground.
