Beechnutk Jr. Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Hey all. I am not that new to KSP, but I am pretty new to the KSP community, and would like some medium difficulty mission ideas and anything else you think would be good for me to know.

Vanamonde Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Hello Beechnutk. Jr. What would you consider "medium" difficulty? What have you done so far? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beechnutk Jr. Posted April 30, 2016 Author Share Posted April 30, 2016 (edited) I have manually gotten small probes into orbit around Duna, Eve, Ike, Jool, and Lathye, along with the mun. I have landed on all of the ones listed above except for laythe. I have a 4-module space station in 120km orbit around kerbin, but for rendezvous and docking I used mechjeb.

Gojira1000 Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 You sound like you have all the required skills to manage career mode - which is probably where I'd point you. It'll have some silly contracts, but a lot are things that will take you (gradually) out of your comfort zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starhawk Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Hello Beechnutk Jr. and welcome to the forum! You could take a look at the Challenges and Mission Ideas section of the forum. There's also the ever-inspirational What Did You Do in KSP Today? thread. Happy landings! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beechnutk Jr. Posted April 30, 2016 Author Share Posted April 30, 2016 I have tried the mission ideas thread, but most are Scott Manley level challenges. Career Mode was too hard for me though, but I have progressed to the 160-300 science level of the tech tree in the Science Mode. Managing the funds are hard, as I try to make huge rockets at the beginning and waste a lot of fuel and parts. Thanks for all of your suggestions, though, I will continue to play through the Science Mode, and I will eventually get to a level where I can manage the tech tree *and* funds. Also, do you have any tips for SSTOs? Should I use a rocket engine and a jet engine, or should I sue the hybrid one (I can't think of the name of the top of my head). Is there anything else that I could use to expand my giant collection of SSTTGs (Single stage to the ground) into a giant collection of actual SSTOs? Anything would be welcome, as mine can barely get of the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
