    Sorry about that. Can it be moved? Or removed?
  2. Jollyranger
    Oh, well then i'll use imgur I guess.

    I have a rocket that I want to show and ask about, but I can't get the attachment onto here. How do I upload the photo without using other sites?

    I have practiced aerobraking on mun returns and Duna probes, but the only thing i'm concerned about is hauling a massive heat shield over there. But I can always add more boosters!

    Delta-v is basically the amount of acceleration your ship can produce before it runs out of fuel. Say you were in deep space with no gravity or drag affecting you. if you had 1,000 m/s of dV, you could reach a speed of 1,000 m/s before running out of fuel.

    I thought that an Apollo style mission would be the best. I already have done one on the Mun and I have a few Ideas for a Duna Rocket, and now I have KER so I can build the best rocket for it.

    I would say I am quite skilled at docking, but it still takes me about 3 or more extra maneuvers to get an encounter. This little ascent vehicle would have to have a huge margin of error for me (maybe 200 m/s) so i can screw around with my orbit. As for return, I usually just aerobrake.

    So basically one giant rocket?

    Yes, I think coming back would be nice. I haven't made much progress in career, so this is a sandbox mission. I would really just like to land there, plant a flag, and come home just so i could say I was there. For a career mission I would do something bigger. I tried building a mothership and going to Minmus once and it got stuck in an elliptical Kerbin orbit on the way home... in a retrograde orbit. I would prefer something lighter and easier to use/build so that doesn't happen again. I really just came here to see what the easiest and quickest way to land and return is.

    So in my Sandbox I have been to the Mun and Minmus. Now I want to get to Duna, but there are so many ways, Like an Orion/Apollo style, The Martian style with a mothership, A simple giant rocket, etc. What is the Most efficient way? Or the Easiest?

    I started playing on xbox about a year ago and recently got it on PC.

    I have confirmation for anyone who wants to edit the wiki that the “up up down down left right left right” cheat menu doesn’t work in the original Xbox port of the game.

    All right guys, it went 40% off on steam and I got it! I guess this thread is over now.
  14. Jollyranger
    wow, I didn't expect so many responses! I guess I'm buying it then, and I'll stick around on the forum.

    Right now it’s $40, and if I can, i’ll save money for other games too.
  16. Jollyranger
    Alright thanks I guess a sale is the best way to go, and the console version (at least the new one) isn’t bad!

    I have played the Xbox version of the game for about a year now and I have really enjoyed it. I even got the enhanced edition for free and that was much better. But I started wondering if I should try the PC version. Now that I have money for it, I’m wondering if it’s worth buying again. The only improvements I know of are: mods easier menu navigation easier mechanics overall possibly higher framerate I can use a joystick let me know if there are any more advantages and if it’s worth another $40!
