Appreciate the input guys...thanks.

Thanks...

Hello Again. I ask a lot of questions, sorry. I haven't noticed the effects of the stupidity and courage ratings of my Kerbals. Are there any effects or is this just kind of a joke?

Good Evening all, hope you're having a pleasant night. I was wondering, in all of your opinions, what is the optimal altitude above the Mun that you should start your landing descent?

Just for verification to make sure I understand it right, the ejection force, mainly concerning radial decouplers, is what determines how far away from a launch vehicle the separated part is ejected. Right?

Good ideas guys, thanks for the help.

Thanks for the info guys...kind of a bummer...I was really hoping for something special, but, good to know.

Collision mesh? Could you define that please?

I am standing at the base of the monolith outside the KSC. Is there something special about it? Do I need to do something special in order to collect any bonus's from it?

Good evening all. Quick question about setting navigation. I am in a plane, and I know how to set navigation to contract locations, but, is there a way to set the navigation for the KSC for the return trip?

Thanks everyone for your input. I was able to design a plane to do what I was trying to achieve with only the Juno engines, just took a little more refinement than I originally anticipated. Your input helped a lot.

OK...I'm stupid, where do I get that? Ok...here is the bbcode for the screenshot...how do I insert a URL? Sorry...I am trying this again...bare with me... Ok...got it figured out...thanks on the screenshot @bewing, now about my plane...lol

Well the planes purpose is to complete contracts around Kerbin that are lower than say, 19000 meters. The highest tech item I have on it are the small retractable landing gears. Ok...I went to Imgur.com, uploaded my screenshot, clicked the "insert other media" box, copied the BBCcode into the URL line there, but I can't seem to get the image up. What am I doing wrong?

I don't know if anyone has thought of this or not, because I am new to the game, but I've found that I have trouble landing planes, period! So, what I have been doing is getting the plane back over the KSC, cutting the engines, nose diving toward the runway, and then deploying a pair of radial chutes that I have mounted just over the center of mass. Then I lower the gears, have the SCS on, level the plane out, and basically land it like I lander. Like I said, I don't know if anyone else does this, but it is most effective.

Good evening to you all. Hopefully I have a simple question here. I have built an early tech plane, and, in order to make it long range I added a Terrier rocket engine to it so I could get it off the ground with all the extra fuel it's carrying for the Juno engines that are on it. I set the thrust limiter on the Terrier to 20, just enough to get the plane off the ground, and then I shut it down once I have enough speed to keep the plane in the air. My question is, does the oxidizer burn at the same rate no matter what you have the thrust set at? When I do activate the Terrier in flight it seems that the oxidizer is still burning at the same rate it would if the Terrier was at full power. If it does, is there any way to limit the oxidizer so I can maximize the effectiveness of the Terrier?

Wait...Are you saying you have to buy the updates?

Ok...I figured out where my screenshots are at...now how do I post it? And, where can I find updates? Please and thank you.

Hello, does KSP search for updates when it is opened on your desktop? If so does it automatically download updates? If not where an I find the updates...I'm running version 1.0.4.861...Help!

V 1.0.4.861... And, I cannot seem to get my screenshot to work...hit F1 and nothing.

No that's not it either. I have 10 solar panels on my rover and 3, 1000 point batteries and I am fully charged.

Ok...Then I think I have a problem. I right click my Rovemate and the only options are control from here or rename vessel. Any thoughts?

Hello All. I have seen threads mentioning the Kerbnet and how it detects anomalies. I have a rover with a rovermate probe body and I have seen where this should allow me to use the Kerbnet. Is this a mod? If not how do I access it?

Good day all. I made a pretty decent rover and I have been testing it around the KSC on Kerbin and it got me thinking. Are there any special locations on Kerbin to go to, such as cities, monuments, craters, wonders of the world, etc. If there are, do they offer special science bonuses at these locations. Also, if there are such locations, as a Kerbal, shouldn't I know where these are at? It is my home planet after all.

Excellent. Thanks for the tips.

Thanks guys, big help, and good to know. One other question, if its convenient in this thread, what does SOI stand for?
