Thanks for your quick answer. First i must apologise my week english, its 40 jears ago i learnt the basics, but i see i must better explain what i mean.
Before i bought KSP, i was watching the Youtuber wintermancer , he made a tutorial with 30 episodes - from nothing to Minmas. Otherwise KSP would be more "hard Work" than fun. He also made at episode#5 a tutorial about space-recue KSP Karrieremodus - Tutorial - #05 SOS Rescue . I've seen more than 15 times, because i feared to be confused with the symbols.
Overall i have ~50h playing KSP and i went on Mun and had dozens of missions, tourists on Kerbal, tourists to Mun, satellite and something else.
But now im stuck, because i've 9 open contracts for recue. 6 ( from 8 ) on Kerbal, 3 on Mun, funnily enough i could rescue 2 Kerbals from orbit of Kerbal. So you may ask - Hey Guy, whats your Problem? Two times it worked ...
... and that exactly is the problem. Two times everything worked exactly as described in the video ( and you explained at the end of your post ), but more than 20 times since there, it doesnt. Each time i start, i do the same. Build a similar orbit with the target, but a little bit deeper. Then i start the approach. Two times it worked as discribed, 20 times the navball shown funny numbers and the orbit i created with this missinformation was "interesting-looking".
So i was asking myself ... whats going on here?
