pfft look how easy that was Mr Branson. actually went up to 110k before running out of fuel I'll keep yall updated on my new versions Mk2 - added wings, changed direction of spin but went 2k lower Mk3 - added another row of engines, for fun made them go in opposite directions muhahahaha http://youtu.be/tlkMYdafIsE mk10 - This got out of hand kind of fast. Not sure Where I was going with this.... lol New Ship, Mk1 - What we learned!

NO MORE BIG 3 TO WIN RINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!

Setup a refuel station orbiting the moon! At first I used mechjeb to dock but now I just use hyperedit Up to you if you like those solutions. They can also dock for you or you can do it when the crafts are close. If you want to look it up http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/27236-Tutorial-Step-by-step-Interplanetary-Hohmann-transfer-guide-and-tips A lot of things like that online. As far as I can tell mechjeb just aligns your orbit with the target than increases the orbit size, then decreases it to gain \ lose speed.

Guess it is just me then. Any solutions or plans to change this?

Just bought a Samsung Evo and it is awesome! edit: Might just be me, got a OC i5, crossfire 6950's, and 8gb also but i would swear the ssd made it run better

yeah i was keeping a low orbit to get ships on and off the moon fml trying hyper edit

I'm trying to get to my docking station around the moon. It is taking a long time for mechjeb to do this. Maybe 30 minutes? Anyway to do this faster? Is it always this slow? Right now I just set mechjeb and watch something on netflix but I have a few ships to fly up there.

Right now I have some low tech parts but refueling is slow as hell. a few tedious minutes to get everything fueled. Anyway to make this faster or more automated? I have tried speeding up time.

thanks for the tips. I totally messed up and had my space station way to high. Small Science vessels couldn't get back... so do you guys use cheats for silly errors like that? Kind of seems lame to relaunch a rocket to save \ redo the station

So I tried making a massive space ship and failed. So now I am sending up ships to a hub orbiting to moon, to do all sorts of space stuff from. The fuel containers not part of the central hub need to be recycled (crashed into moon) and there is a unit for KAS mod, which will allow me to put struts and fuel lines in. How do you guys destroy your stuff? Trying to avoid space trash (debri)

true, I am making this massive ship to get to the mun lol. I have been there a few times but this is more fun

I tried the joint plugin but did not have any luck. KAS looks good but i think it would already have to be on the craft?? Anyway I am sending up this ship to hopefully convert my engines to towing and add some control

as always, a ton of good help! Didn't even think about making a craft that pulls. Have not made anything in space yet. I like the idea of fixing things in space. as in not reinventing my project or using something that is too strong. I'll check out both the mods listed and later on make things that pull \ larger ports (when i get the science)

Should I reattach the parts? Is there a mod to be able to fix the ship? Should I edit the parts? Any hope for this ship? Was kind of hoping to use it, took forever to make it

is that a flying saucer?

better solution, download mechjeb, edit part.cfg to a lower tier science ( i used stabilization). You have to go into the tech tree and "purchase" the mechjeb parts. Then you can use it in flight to autopilot to the ship you are looking to dock. lol, after 15m of trying to dock 50m away, it was time to use mechjeb and then start enjoying the game again.

I'm trying to get close to the ship I am trying to dock with

I am looking to just burn towards a waypoint to dock. Any ideas? Mechjeb is still requiring more science

Thanks! I was unaware I could get science from points of interest. I'll try that out. Not sure what you meant by a science vessel. I have the big Processing lab, might be able to get it up there.

Tired of trying. Any good guides out there to just copy into the game? Ready to the the later stages of sciences.

So far I have been to the moon(which was a pain), around the sun and I can barely make it to dune. I'm not sure if I have missed and science out there but what can I do to get further in the campaign? I'm not sure if I can get to duna. I want mechjeb to work but it's built into the campaign... idk just kind of getting tired of trying and failing. docking seems hopeless too. Anyway to cheat in mechjeb?
