Not sure if this is the right place to post because this is more wrangling Python than anything else. I want to start building a docking program piece by piece, starting with nulling relative velocity at the closest point to the target craft. I want to do this by stealing code from the docking guidance tutorial. They use numpy there, and I have a feeling that I will need to use numpy no matter my implementation. However, I can't figure out a good way to install numpy. There are scripts available, but I don't believe they will work because they look for Python on the C drive, while I have it installed on the D drive. I will look around more in the morning, but just wanted to know if any Python pros here had a pro tip. EDIT: Apparently I installed Python in a way that makes what I want to do very difficult, so I will be installing again with an installer that packages Numpy.

I'm afraid I'll have to steal most recent Eagle. I made Eagle this last December. I did my OA ordeal and I also will have the Triple Crown if I ever fill out the form for it... Nice to see a lot of other Scouts on here.

That would definitely do it. Thanks for the help. I'm on to bigger and better things in career but I'm sure I'll be able to find a use for this in a landing program.

Hello! I'm just starting in kRPC and I'm having trouble with a script for a first career launch. The problematic part is deploying my parachute. I want to deploy the chute when the ship stops going up, so I set up a stream to check the vertical velocity of the ship, and then when that stream value goes below 0, it will activate the chutes. However, the stream I've set up consistently returns a value of 0 no matter what I've tried. In debugging I've changed it to the more general speed stream, but this too returns 0 always. I checked if the problem was an outdated KSP version, which it is not, and I wanted to check if the problem was me but the documentation is down right now. Here are images of my code and it's output, as well as a list of my addons if it makes a difference.
