I've just seen this, sorry about that - the forums seem to pick any time I remember to look at them as a good time to be down. I'll review it this week.

Goodness me, yes - we're not _that_ picky about routes, especially if you are visiting anomalies or constrained by oceans.

That's an odd way round - visiting anomalies? (I'm waiting for the timelapse on ianwubby's Duna, but does anyone else think I've left them unscoreboarded?)

I'm still a bit confused as to _why_ you want BD Armoury for an Elcano mission, but: as I understand it, you were in orbit around Minmus (point A), you tried to land, the Kraken struck, your last save was in Kerbin orbit, so you Alt-F12ed it back to the orbit you were in at point A? ETA: if so, I'm going to say it's OK this time, if technically against the rules, but please don't do it again. I'm afraid I didn't really realise you were waiting for an answer before continuing - the forum yoyoing has made things difficult.

I'm thinking that one over on the days the forum is up...

What is "pre"?

No, @TheKspEngineer had minmus above and I meant that; sorry for the confusion. I think probably not - it's basically zipping around the North Pole. The total distance should be at least comparable to a route the long way around. As far as I know, everyone has had to design some kind of amphibious vehicle for Kerbin - easy in KSP!

That would be perfectly fine - it just has to be enough to prove you went, and a timelapse more than does that. (I see the Minmus above, will get to it when I have time, but thanks).

I think there's a fairly obvious next question there, given that you seem to have hit this problem while trying to transfer crew to an Elcano rover, which doesn't want much in the way of guns...

Why use Physics Range Extender at all?

Tylo is really quite flat apart from the crater rims and I think almost any route will do - and you've already decided you want to see the craters (as did I). Elcano isn't all pressing forwards and waiting, to put it mildly, but quite a chunk of Tylo is...

Looks fine to me, apart from the apparent teleportation at 180 degrees West (the north/south position on the edges doesn't seem to match up...) :-)

Quote the error verbatim.

Perhaps I am missing something, but which part of the log told you to "come to this thread and post in the error message"?

Is Statmun small enough that a polar route with engines on the roof to stick you down at the Equator would do?
