  1. I think science could have a duel purpose. Atm, there is no in game hints with regards to interplanetary transfer windows and landers. I think science should give you diagram/text hints and or unlock stock landers. I think the game has a enough of a steep learning curve than *fly a lander to a planet and get stranded* Unless the devs just like laughing at all us noobs who land kerbals on Eve.
  2. Hi I like changing the keyboard controls but have to do it every update. I assume I can just copy a file over? Where is it? Thanks
  3. my second knock off ISS and a tripod type thingy Uploaded with ImageShack.us
  4. I suppose when you go to duna and transmit, it doesn't immediately return home? Profit?
  5. with mining it makes more sense for a fuel depo above minmus than floating at geosync.
  6. after a while asking to go to the Mun is kind of considered trolling.... plenty of guides are available if you google/youtube. in short: once you get to orbit around kebin, use a high ISP engine, as you don't need thrust you need fuel efficiency. a sloppy guide I did way-back-when
  7. Hi I've previously modded the "rockomax brand adapter" so it had some RCS/fuel in it. I'm struggling to find it in the new folder set up. Which folder and name does it come under in >2.0. Thanks
  8. I do the lazy option I get out of kerbin influence, then do a second burn to get an intercept by spinning the node around the orbit and adjusting. Getting an intercept on a planet is very delicate. As others say there is a guide of the best time to launch.
  9. Once out of the atmosphere, you ideally should use something with high ISP like Nuclear engines ISP800? super efficient and painfully slow. I'm currently getting stuff into kerbal orbit then a nuclear tug takes it where its needed.
  10. quantum struts, mech jeb and kethane, satmap ISA.
  11. This my minimal design for Minmus station. The idea is that the core structure is put up then modules attached to the arms. Rockets are best pyramid shaped, you're s looks like a cylinder.
  12. If I decouple something it seems to just vanish from the radar is there a transponder mod or something so I can see where it is? Thanks
  13. Ok this is slightly cheating but I\'ve made it without the lander legs. =P Not sure if its a bug but I was really struggling to land. Switched from orbital to surface, and I was able to control my thrust more gently. Makes no sense to me. Previously I kept yo-yoing 2ft off the ground.
  14. The Mun IV. After many “impact†designs, the Mun IV is, our scientists calculate, capable of a soft landing on the Mun and return. (I can’t land the module) Designed extensively to arrive on the Mun with at least 2 full tanks, the Mun IV with good trajectory is capable of arriving with a little juice left in the Intermediate Stage. I hope someone can give me pointers. :
  15. I finally got a rocket Mun III that can get me to the moon with >2 spare cans to retro onto the surface. But really struggling to land without breaking up. ???
