Thank you very much, exactly what i needed to know!

When transferring to another planet, nodes i create and/or mechjeb will get close but not that close. I usually end up over 1,000,000 meters away from the planet. Sometimes mechjeb will not even get me into the SOI, or puts me in a reverse orbit, which is annoying. I waste DV burning to get to a much lower 100k orbit around target body. when I create nodes at my parking orbit (usually 100k) how do I make them precise enough to get within 1-200k altitude of the planet/moon I am trying to reach? I feel like I cannot zoom in enough or I am missing something. thank you

the lander and probe is 4 ton struts worked perfect thank you very much

my issue is the payload will separate and explode under acceleration. turns everything into space debris, when i open the cargo doors they float out. its a big-s shuttle style space plane. everything uses stock parts only using tweakscale the lander is attached with a docking port jr , the probe is attached inside the service bay with a sepratron how do i reliably attach the lander to the plane, and the rover to the lander? i am only in my 2nd month of playing. i have not quite figured this game out yet
