Ok thanks for info kerbonauts my next mining target is also minmus! I once try those nuke engines on mun for miner vessel but it takes sooo long to get even low orbit and one engine just give up make my miner vessel rotating wildly

I start my first mining operation on mun and i have couple questions so first of all my stationary miner and driveble tanker car are close to my mun base. Mun equatorial area. I scan mun and area is not rich with resources but i still get lots of fuel about 2 months more than enough to refuel my lander several times so is it nessassary to mining only areas with rich resources? And second mun is kind of poodle i try to build miner whitch can take fuel to mun orbit to stations/ships and land back to surface to mine more but it take so much fuel to go orbit and land and bigger i make my miner landing comes more diffucult also mun terrain is horrible so is mimus more easier and lucrative to mine than mun?

Ok thanks for answers!!! Practical business point of view there is always space turism

I have built small base on mun surface i have orbital station kerbin orbit and big mun ship with lander parked on station! I gonna build also mun orbital station and more ships which move between mun and kerbin station(s) so i going to colonize it then maybe minmus but is there any practical point of this? Do i get money or science if i start mining operations? I play career and not yet open those mining equipments! Also duna is interesting but is sooo far i have only sent probe there so it feels too damn hard to build anything there if there is no any practical point of it?

Just get my first station mun surface damn it was hard job! build it on kerbin orbit and it's not even very big just that big science module and hitchiker module and batteries, antennas, solar panels etc! But anyway i landed and of course i was tilted over 15 degrees because mun terrain! Finally shoot up rocket again and landed better spot it take about 20 times before i get it better surface crs was empty so flying hole station was a poodle now station is only tilted 3 degrees which it's fine and i'am so proud my first station but question is there any way find good flat surfaces on mun kind stellar bodies or do i have to just quess where to land and hope nice flat area?

Yes i didn't actually dare to tilt rocket anymore because rocket just loose control when i tilt too much looks like many videos still say turn 45 degree 10km! So i keep it 5-10 degrees too long 20km-30km because i scared i loose it if i tilt more! Well now i know to just put it prograde and let it just turn smoothly.

Wow thanks guys!!! Real difference i just tilt 5 degrees after launch and put prograde my rocket rise smoothly sub orbit save fuel much much more than my old style my rocket even have too much fuel nowI quess i watched those old tutorials didn't know they don't work!

When i built rocket for heavy load and get it on the orbit i usually burn my boosters first and then fire second engine to get sub orbit and last one to get orbit of course but i usually tilt rocket 5 degrees before it is about 20 to 30km when dump my boosters and launch second one! Then start to tilt 90 degrees! This because rockets have heavy payload and if i try to follow youtube tutorials like ignite boosters and second stage rocket at the launch i dont have enough fuel get to the orbit or if i tilt 45 degrees 10km like they advise my rocket will lose control so is there better way i know this works for me but if there is i like to know?

I have notice! I keep only couple save file and delete old ships except those i use like launch vehicles lifting different size modules, satellites, probes etc to space i have three of those! I have one station orbiting kerbin and couple of satellites orbiting kerbin and mun! I erase space junk but game still crash it is annoying if it happens when i have complete time consuming mission and my goals is to set lots of stuff space, planets and other bodies i don't know can game handle this before it is fixed!

Yep love this game i hope they fix this issues soon!

Game only let me save anymore when i save and exit the game! This is frustrating because always i get something done and space game usually crash and last save(s) is gone only way is build something and save then exit the game! Game sometimes crash even when i save and try to exit the game! Damn shame i just get my first station orbit but playing this or get something to done is sooo slow with this save issues!!!

Playing xbox! Damn wasted docking for 4 hours finally get close enough and and crashed too much speed #$@* thanks for info try it docking mode but still it's very hard to do! Looks like pc you can control those rcs engines without docking mode to use forward and backward control? But i try tomorrow with better luck i hope.

Can you use rcs thrusters to move rocket forward? I try to dock but i don't get how to push rocket forward with just rcs???

Thanks for info! Yes they really not matter much my heavy mun rocket get only couple of hunred dv for those and use those just random manoeuvres but nice to know!!! If i need to calculate those some other rocket!

Sorry for noob question how to count delta v for rcs engines? I have 3 stage rocket last stage has 2 rcs and middle stage 1 rcs do i calculate them separately? Can't use mods playing console!

Hey i have a question of space junk! I have been playing career mode now couple of weeks and i have noticed that kerbin orbit start to fill with rocket junk so my question does it causing severe hazard for my future flights?

Every time i get back from to mun and start re entry kerbal game fps start to drop and land textures vanishing also when i land and select recover game crash! This not possibly happend when wet landing only when i land surface!? I own xbox version!

Thanks for the answers!!! Cleared a lot! never been do so much calculating any game! Damn when i was a kid this kind of games/simulators could have possible make me a rocket scientist!? Now old and stupid take so much time to understant this kind of math:-)

I buy this xbox one and i really like learning new things with this game:-) one is delta v! Xbox you can't add mods and so i have to calculate delta v my own i also find android app for that too but some reason delta v count doesn't match up? Number is usually couple of hundred m/s more of actual speed of rocket (sometimes even more)! So why is this is it gravity or air pressure what effects this even vaccuum calculation is little wrong! How much this effect if i built a rocket and want to go mun and numbers are wrong hunreds or even thousands i calculate like smarter people say ln(m1/m2)×Isp×9.18=delta v! I am not very good of math by the way:-D but have look many youtube videos learn this calculations.

Okey i have 3 solid fuel boosters and 2 liquid engines so how i get Isp count them for delta v do i just add them all and use that number to count for delta v calculation like 100+100+200+200+200=800 and then delta v like Δv = ln ( Mstart / Mdry ) * 800 * g

Is there way to see rocket empty and full mass some panel? I am kind of noob this game but i like to calculate my delta v and that i need those! I don't see it my engineer's report only mass of my hole ship? Also i don't see it my engines info panel? So is there way to see this things!?

Ok thanks for answering! I hope they fix this bug soon.

Is there a way complete observation survey missions? I don't get this missions are they bugged i have to take crew report some altitude near some site like VDFT53 but how i fly this area? I can see it my map but is there some way to lock this area on my navball or something??? Because it impossible try to get there without some assistant!?

How you can complete survey missions xbox one? I am newbie with this game! I can see area in map but is there possible way to track this target areas? they are usually below or over some altitude!
