I didnt even realize that was there, but from what i noticed when i moved my mouse to the top was a bar just telling me were things were and clicking them didn't do anything. - - - Updated - - - Thanks for the help tsotha i figured it out thanks to you.

Im newer, ive only logged about 30 hours but I have figured out a lot just from tutorials and help on the forums. Plus I have figured out a lot from trial and error which I think was a big part of it, did you try the tutorial and sandbox parts to the game first?

I was Orbiting Kerbin messing with the nodes to fix my trajectory and my ship icon is now missing. I can still see my apoapsis and periapsis and can make nodes but i cant seem to get my icon back, not sure what i did. I backed out to the main menu and reloaded the save and it is still gone. Maybe i have to restart the whole game but i was curious if there was a button to toggle it, i hit a lot of the keys but didn't seem to do anything.

Nvm, my side of the things was not showing my the info i wrote till now, it was just showing the header to the question. sorry new to the forums haha

thank you, I watched this video in the tutorial forums http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x1948ip_maneuver-nodes-hd-a-ksp-0-19-0-tutorial_videogames and found that I needed to create a second node which makes sense. Not sure how to switch this to answered. - - - Updated - - - I have everything needed unlocked, i did originally explain this in more detail but the moderator who approved the most must have thought my explanation was trivial which it probably was to the question at hand.

Ive been playing for a bit now and love playing KSP so far but i can not figure out how to move the periapsis. I can move into orbit fine now i have done it multiple times but I accepted a mission called "Position satellite in a polar orbit of Kerbin". I can move the Apoapsis fine but can not figure out how to move the periapsis. Also recently i found out i cant use batteries for the power which wont allow me to do the mission for about an hour because i need to unlock my first solar panel. Orbit Specifics Apoapsis-4,031,524 meters Periapsis-2,643,811 meters Inclination-90 degrees Longitude of ascending node-63.7 Argument of periapsis-131 degrees It does give me the orbital path i need in the map so really all i need to do is match the orbital path. I can move the Apoapsis to 4,031524 meters easily, but aligning myself to the correct orbit is a challenge, that doesn't matter though because i cant get the periapsis out to 2,643,811 at all. Also is I seem to be unable to move the satellite around without the engines burning, I assume this has something to do with the unmanned probe as I have never ran into that issue before and i do have well over enough electricity and i can see it using electricity when im trying to position it but it doesn't move without the engines burning. - - - Updated - - - I figured it out after hours of trying, the forums are a great way to learn something when stuck and im shocked at how easy it is. all i needed to do was create a second node after my first, which will push my periapsis to a farther distance.
