Targeting other planets

[Gunhed]

I'm again having problems targeting other planets

I want to target Duna, it gives me Ike. If I want to target Duna again, it might give me Ike or it gives me Debris.

Is this So super annoying behaviour fixed anytime soon?

i just flipped a game after 4 hours because I'm unable to select this Fricking planet!

Try clicking on the circle of the planet's orbit instead of the planet.

[Gunhed]

I tried that, didn't work. I can select every other fricking planet, but Duna. Haystack isn't a help in that case, since it doesn't show planets.

press TAB until you focus on Duna, then select it

Back out of the game then back in like just go to stageing mode and if that doesn't work go to space centre that usually does it for me

[Gunhed]

Is there no mod, where I can select a planet body directly through it?

[Nibb31]

Click the orbit, not the planet.

[NeoMorph]

They should update Haystack to include planetary bodies because otherwise it's a bloody marvellous selection mod. I use it all the time and it's remove my one big stress creator... the "wrong selection" bug.

[Gunhed]

Doesn't work for me. It's only choosing debris stuff.

[Gunhed]

Seriously, before implementing new stuff they should fix the old one first.

[Richy teh space man]

Report it under the bugs section and include as much info as possible, that way they can narrow it down and fix it

If you use Kerbal Engineer Redux's Flight Engineer mod, the Rendezvous tab allows you to target planets and moons from a dropdown menu. Of course, you have to have the Flight Engineer chip attached to your rocket to use it.

[Gunhed]

Hm yeah thanks, but that doesn't help me in the current situation.

You don't mention where your spacecraft currently is in the original post. For clarity's sake, you aren't currently in Duna's sphere of influence, are you?

Hi,

My 3 ships are at 1, they just left the SOI of Kerbin. I now want to do the aligning and stuff at Nr. 3, but I'm unable to select Duna (2)

I know, that I do have an encounter at 4, but without fine tuning, I will come out all over the place.
