quick buy KSP before the deadline. and on a less important note go to a doctor - you have a tumor you wont find til 2017 edit: @Gargamel there are some sports bets i'd lay down as well :-)

I've never actually googled anything so i'm not sure where that leaves me.

to turn into - or away from - requires Dv not posts. and since we still do not get Dv in stock we'll never know how much is required to turn into a black hole. EDIT: though there might be a mod for that :-)

as always KSP forums come through for me. thanks!

So if I have a central tank and two side tanks all with running engines and set the outer tanks to a higher priority the outer tanks should drain first? excellent thanks for the help. If I have outer tanks and no engines on them could I use the priorities to specify which tanks I want to drain first?

I've been trying to expand my KSP toolkit by exploring parts I've rarely used. In this case the fuel manifold. I usually screw up either the fuel flow or the staging. I can't find specifics on the "Flow Priorities" tweakables, and I expect that's where I'm going wrong. Can someone give me a rundown on using the manifold properly? Also any info on how the flow priorities function would be much appreciated.

This is a prime example of why I read the forums. While I have nothing to offer in response to the question; I learned a huge amount from the replies. So Thank You!!!! to asker and answerers alike.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh thanks for that but now that I started I'm poophole enough that I have to finish learning the syntax.

The just delete option doesn't really work for me. While deleting the m1 cockpit and t100-800 fuel tanks worked and broke nothing that I've encountered; the engine file names etc. are very different and harder to differentiate. So for now I'm going with Snarks plan of leaving well enough alone while learning MM syntax. ( I can't possibly screw things up too badly. ) As always thanks all for the helpful replies.

I installed partsoverhaul.zip in my Gamedata folder. Can anyone tell me how to remove the older analogous versions of the parts so that I don't have two mk-1 cockpits etc. cluttering up my parts menu?

This would get you to minmus . Land there and return. With Dv to spare. It's not elegant and you could do better. But it does not require huge ships to get to minmus and the mun. http://imgur.com/a/SwMbp

Playing non-steam I don't have a counter. I don't want a counter as the numbers might frighten me. On the bright side in terms of hours played and what the game cost me; KSP has far and away given me the most bang (cough) for my buck.

Yup. Once I do need it (whether weight or re-entry settings cause it) the initial 200 (I think?) is still way too high in the early tiers.

My experience has been that the early tier to orbit shots do not need a heat shield. save the extra weight by ditching it.
