hello to the world of kerbal space! today the game begins
Haxsis replied to Haxsis's topic in Welcome Aboard
i want to learn everything i need to kerbin side of things then start sending stuff to other planets, that way it wnt be a problem for me to intiate my grand plan for kerbin, a giant space station with interior docks, fuel resupply, rcs resupply, life boats,construction area designated to long range rockets, deployment zones for science vessels and a docking zone filled with major parts for construction, if i forget to tow something up to orbit, plus it will have to look all form finish too, so none of this oddly pointing modules everywhere. the goal is to make an easy all in 1 port for colonising the entire system -
hi there, recently new to the game, been playing on and off for 2 months, ive mastered circular orbits, basic rocket construction and just starting to get the hang of kerbal orbit based rendevouz, not including docking however this morning i did successfully complete my first ever rendevouz and DOCKING and completed my first major milestone towards the future UKASS-01 or united kerbal alliance space station.. from the future master of the kerbalverse-HAXSIS image is of my basic barely passable docked craft

continued development on an experimental SSTO Crew Transfer Vehicle, im new to ksp and cant yet even rendevouz yet but im trying to experiment with rocket designs so that when im ready to rendevouz i can send anything i want up to orbit, without days or weeks of untested rocket designs so far its a success its a very small minimalist design technically 2 stages but the 2nd stage is the CTV and i still have a large tank WITH 100% fuel left once i reach a 100k+ orbit i had help from someone else to develop subsequent versions which did a little better and upon returning to my original design by myself i found that by a different method of piloting i was able to get alot more efficiency out of the same engines

help!!! my rocket always enters a tilted orbit,
Haxsis replied to Haxsis's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
oh well there you go, use it if you want, i dnt care i cnt copyright a design in this game for one thing, and if it helps out for tutorials/ your own missions whatever then im glad, however i have a feeling this might be able to be expanded on as a basic design -

your enjoying playing with my design arent you thanks for your amazing help, this is 2 issues you've personally helped me on now, thanks for your help SRV might just pvt message you from now on if i get a bit stuck, if thats ok with you, you seem pretty knowledgeable and i can tell youve been playing this game for a while now -

help!!! my rocket always enters a tilted orbit,
Haxsis replied to Haxsis's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
i placed a few standard canards on the main rocket, and that more or less got me the perfectly stable orbit i wanted oddly enough this design is pretty effiecient, the moment those ascent boosters are jettisoned it goes pretty good, they get me to about 30 thou i think from memory i had a little spin issue when entering and exiting the gravity turn but it just means i have to control it and watch it a little more around that area, fuel isnt what i would like it to be, but more than enough for my purposes, im docking the little runt this afternoon heres a pic of her after the mods, kinda cute now -

Haxsis replied to Haxsis's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
as weird as it sounds, although horribly new to the game, im past wanting to build simple designs, and and starting to build more complex stuff, using less weight and all basically training myself to get ready for career mode -
help!!! my rocket always enters a tilted orbit,
Haxsis replied to Haxsis's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
hey great suggestions, a third booster stage would definetly help me on this one without changing the design too much, i initally didnt want to add a second fuel tank as it would put added weight on my second stage and make it taller and thus more unstable, im not big on tall designs as you may have guessed plus it should give me that extra height since i like to idle the throttle a bit past the thin atmosphere to get that extra speed boost, also i ALWAYS turn sas on first thing i do before i enter map view to check for launch windows -
hi, for anyone who believe they can help me rectify this, my rocket- image supplied always enter space at a tilted orbit, im too new to the game to understand why so i can fix it, its making any chance of a rendevouz with other ships impossible as i run out of fuel before i finish the necessary orbital correction burns, and my orbit is still out of whack anyway when i get my orbit more or less straight again* always sits too high on the orbital plane and too prograde most of the time anyway, im unwilling to change my rocket design as its basic enough for me to learn on atm so if anyone has suggestions for modifications to the design such as fins, struts, decouplers to help with orbital insertion (my ship does spin a fair bit up to the point where i release the first stage, this is what i believe is causing my issues), * i dnt wish to add extra fuel btw because this is an orbital maneuvering question or tips and tricks to help enter space relatively straight so i create more even alligned stable orbits that would be great thank you

why does my rocket spin uncontrollably??? need help
Haxsis replied to Haxsis's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
thank you for all your help everyone, the issue has been rectified i was trying to control the ship from the cupola which i had faced upside down for my own design reasons, im not sure why it spun wildy like it did because the moment i controlled the ship from the highest point ie the landercan the issue was rectified and flew normally again, however once finally flying my ship into orbit for the first time(or tried to), it became obvious that i was short by 1 mid size tank of fuel for the second stage to adjust my orbit for a rendevous which after adding made the entire ship too heavy to get off the ground for more than a few 100 metres, because of this issue, the entire design is now obsolete. and calls for a new, more powerful rocket design I apologise for wasting everyones time, but my issue with the rocket spin control has been rectified and i am now more informed towards future builds, I will continue to post pictures and stories of future missions and builds on my profile for your perusal, I hope that you will follow me throughout my KSP experience as I slowly and surely reach for the heavens -
why does my rocket spin uncontrollably??? need help
Haxsis replied to Haxsis's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
i have a decent sized battery to keep the ship running till orbit, plus the panels arent blocking my crew panels, only the viewports, i havent tried going for an eva with panels over the holes yet but i dnt think it should inhibit them that much -

Haxsis replied to Haxsis's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
the images have been supplied now, i was late for work as i typed it, so i ran out of time to supply the link to the images as i hadnt uploaded them to imgur at that point, ill upload a an image of the CoM, CoL and CoT to help further, by all logic i have a feeling this design shouldnt be spinning the way it is, if you can help diagnose the problem , a redesign by your specs would be appreciated THX ----- oddly enough it seems to be working now thank you, please explain this witchcraft and why is it working now?? so i can avert similar issues in future -
why does my rocket spin uncontrollably??? need help
Haxsis replied to Haxsis's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
sorry i made this quick post at 4 in the morning and had to leave for work before i got a chance to upload them, hang on ill do that now as far as i know, this payload may actually be lighter than the stock station the game supplies you and i was able to haul that up to orbit with no drama's ive just gotten over the whole making perfect orbits drama, so im ready to start ferrying craft up to put a station together, which means im working on building boosters of my own config that fly how i need them to atm, all stock parts of course though, pictures are now included in a link to my imgur file, theres several there for reference -
http://imgur.com/a/tel85#0 hi guys, requesting help with my rocket, initially the game worked fine for me, now occasionally my navball seems to invert itself at times ie that orange line that points down will flip up, i have a feeling its my rocket design but i dnt know what or why and also a bigger issue, my rocket begins to spin uncontrollably wildly from about 1000 mtres after liftoff, I have no idea about this one, as am a new player to the game, i am using all stock parts no mods.. thx- Haxsis I HAVE SUPPLIED IMages for reference, i am using the kerbal x stock booster with a payload of my own configuration if the images dnt help, i have included a link to my imgur folder with several shots from various angles for reference
