I have managed to get past the declination section, but now that I have to meet the orbit of the other craft, I don't see how I can obey the tutorial.
The orange markers which are supposed to be 50km or 5km (not restarting the tutorial for a 5th time to find out) apart are without fail separated by thousands of kilometres. I cannot get them any closer than 1500km using the prograde/retrograde manoeuvre control. What the hell am I supposed to do?
I tried to go my own way (ignoring the markers) at this point by adjusting everything to get a vaguely circular orbit next to the stranded craft, but then if I slow down to match the target like it tells me to, my orbit decays and I can't ever reach it!
What gives?
EDIT: I did it, but I had to do 3/4 burns to get the orbits to line up. I don't know how I was supposed to do it using only pro/retrograde burns since I 100% needed to adjust radially as well to get the orbits to match. I was very lucky that the craft happened to be close after I did this (almost like it was planned, eh?). End result = 0 fuel, 2 stranded craft.
