JONYghost Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 (edited) Hi there, I reach te DRV and nothing happens. Tried docking to it, driving around, transferring the fuel back to the hab... but nothing seems to trigger the completion. Any suggestions? Pd: Changed to dock to DRV, it works perfectly and accomplishes the same purpose Edited October 8, 2018 by JONYghost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I modified the mission by changing the reaching DRV Node to a Dock with DRV Node. The rest went for the most part perfectly, great mission @Mikki Consider changing it in version 2.5 as it mitigates that issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dexter_D Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 @JONYghostTry doing an EVA before examine the DRV. Just tested it, using the steam 2.4 version now. It worked perfectly fine on my side and took only 5 minutes to find out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cawdeen Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 (edited) So far this is an awesome mission. Great work. However, I cant see myself dedicating the time required to rover 60km. Thats like hours of ksp driving isnt it? Excellent work for real though. Edit: Completed the mission and I think the long haul on Duna added to the feeling of accomplishment.

C7 Aerospace Division Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 Hi Mikki, I have been trying out the mission, and I ran into a problem. Firstly, when I was told to launch the supply craft for the KRES, it didn't say to land it yet, so I made an assumption and landed it near the KRES. But later in the mission, it said to land it near the marker (12km radius). So I launched it again and sent it about 1.8km from the marker by the HAB. But the task never got ticked off. It also looks like that is the last task as by scrolling down, it only goes that far. But what about sending the Kermes, or taking off from Duna? Please, can you help me figure out what is wrong? Thanks. -C7 Aerospace Division Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi @C7 Aerospace Division I assume you could read closer the ingame messages and the mainthread. They provide further advice. I`m okay if you consider me a real bad english speaker, please excuse if this is the case. "The Dunatian" follows Andy Weir`s cinematic "The Martian" in a way that fits Kerbal lore and gamemechanics, it does deviate in some ways and adds additional tasks at the point where the motion picture allready ended, it can be a fairly difficult mission for people who haven`t seen "The Martian"... To the issue of "Kres":KRES IV (4) is a unused Ascendvehicle from a former mission located at the "Skiapparellicrater". Part of the rescue plan.KRES V (5) is the rescue missionprobe to secure Bob`s supply with LFO (Liquidfuel and oxidizer in the dumpling tank). It is stated at several messages ingame where the probe should favourable be dropped, which is close to the habitat and at least 12 km away from it. I hope you give the mission another try and watch "The Martian", if you didn`t allready! You need some snacks to pull this mission, believe me! Kind regards Mikki PS: Alot of the missiongoals are hidden at the beginning, they appear after a certain point to discourage errr to motivate you... They aswell disappear again at the end of the mission, there is quite alot to do...

Ashaman42 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 I dids it! I've mostly been playing on a heavily modded 1.3.1 install but this mission inspired me to buy the Making History expansion and it was great. Odd playing stock though. Not having to worry about life support was handy - especially as my return from Duna to Kerbin took two orbits around Kerbol. For this one I went with the prefab vehicles and the extra dv over the bare minimum was most handy. I didn't go for a direct ascent from Duna to the Kermes -- not being able to set manuver/intercept nodes from the ground makes that hard. I only did a single whip around Duna to intercept though. I forgot how difficult not being able to see one's PeR and ApR from the flight screen is though, trying to fly from the map screen did result in one of my launches tumbling end over end but there was enough dV in the tanks to recover it with burst of thrust when pointing at space and shutting the throttle when the up end was pointing down I had ummed and ahhed about getting MH - especially as most of the mods I have add a lot of the extra parts (or at least similar). Just this one mission run though has fully justified the purchase. Most thoughts tomorrow but I currently have chocolate to eat and a film to watch.

Mikki Posted December 31, 2018 Author Share Posted December 31, 2018 @Ashaman42, hi there, glad to see people really getting Bob back to Kerbin, and congrats for reenactng being hardstuck on Duna! Oh, happy new year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dexter_D Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 @Ashaman42Extra points for generating so much science. I have to admit here that I was simply to lazy to take the extra step to do more experiments, obviously because it wasn't critical for the mission. But now I feel challenged, hmmm. ...also Happy New Year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashaman42 Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 Happy New Year both. The science was more habit than anything else. I will admit to quick saving a bunch but the only reloads I needed were when getting a bit reckless when roving to the ascent vehicle. Exploding the rover is sub optimal. I did muck up the rove a bit. I caterpillared the rovers planning to run off the fuel cell and dump that rover once the tanks were dry. Alas due to either a fuel flow mistake or a fluff up in the VAB the resupply ship landed with a dumpling tank with barely any LF or O. Add a result I started the rover trip with about 3 units of LF and a full allowance of O. I could have gone back to my predrop save and transferred some fuel before decoupling the deorbit motor but I was so pleased with landing less than 2.5km of the hab on my first try... It just meant the drive had a few stops to let the RTG fill the battery. Ace mission. Just ace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People cannot imagine all the background research i made on the cinematic, my goal was to "Kerbalize" the mood and design of the sometimes just partially visible film setups... the various locations on Duna are well determined to ensure a challenging but still rewarding mission progress, there are many small but VERY important details and (late) game mechanics involved to make it a true mindbending "custom singleplayer adventure". To quote your fuelsupply on the (prefabricated) Kaijang-Khen KRES V.. i remember remotely that the tank is not full when loaded to the VAB... Still possible to reach out for the KRES-IV Ascendvehicle, but very tight. Really tight. Sorry. Happy new Year to all the true Bob`s out there! Potatoes! Yeah! And Snacks!
