I forgot something

I saw it 1 week ago, but I forgot to take a screenshot,

It is totally not decent, that is why I like it XD (i'm playing in Science mode, so this is not a problem really) I've thought about refueling but I really wanted to do a rocket that needs no refueling, like a little challenge

@InfernoSD that is a clean lander, even with a rover, well done !

In case if someone wanna know, i've found the issue! I think the some of the parts got corrupted (maybe during one of the 20 crash I got building this rocket XD) Corrupted because I got this error if I loaded the lander only: So the issue was, those two parts were weirdly connected: So I just copied the opposite parts (that were not corrupted) and put it instead of the corrupted ones, and boom: Perfectly in the middle

Yeah it's definitely too big haha. It's a bit sad because I took so much time doing this rocket, especially because my computer is slooow I'll just try to do another one Thanks!

Okay guys, so this is definitely a bug, coming from my lander actually. So if try to remove the launch part, the center of mass is "following it": and if I remove the launch part, the center of thrust seems to be okay, but what are the center of mass and drag doing down there?? and if I try to remove one of the engine/fuel container, i cant put it back, it stays on my cursor... lol The bug may be coming from all the heat shields i dont know @InfernoSD Actually, since my rocket is tall, it falls over so the center of mass has to be in the middle, and I dont think I have any double boosters or what... but ty for your answer!

Hello everyone! I bought the game in 2019 but I didnt play a lot due to my computer, so i'm still a beginner So I just went back on the game, and tried to do a rocket to go on Eve and come back. But I have some issues with the centers of mass/drag/thrust : Yeah I know the rocket is too huge lol But As you can see, the center of mass goes more on the "forward" side of the rocket But on the left/right side it is perfectly in the middle Since my rocket is symmetrical, I dont understand how it is possible... any known bugs? Ive tried remove or add some autostructs, but it doesnt change anything I actually struggle modifying the rocket because of my computer lol Any ideas? Thanks (apologies for my english)

I do the same, I just wanted to know how the antennas work

Okay thanks a lot for the tip!!

Oh okay thanks a lot!!

No i dont have any Relay sats, but I think I forgot to put batteries on that lander xD i had solar panels deployed on it, but no batteries I think, so maybe it was the electricity. And how do you know if the science that you want to send is "suitable for transmission"? I wanted to send Science Jr, Mistery Goo, Thermometer, Barometer, and I also had EVA and Crew Reports, and a Surface Sample (but you cant send that I guess xD)

Oooh okay I see, thanks a lot VoidSquid!! And no sadly I didnt take a screenshot of the error message i forgot, but ty!!!

Hey guys!! I come back with new questions! xD First, I have a question about antennas: Here I was on Ike, and I had this little antenna at the top of the lander. But when I clicked on "Send data", i got a message "Unable to use the antenna" or something like that. But why? Maybe I was too far and I need a more powerful one? Second question: I built a rocket to go to Eve. The rocket was fine, and suprisingly stable, but I had issues to enter into the atmosphere. Same issue than before, the lander flipped over: At the beginning it was great, but after a few minutes: it flipped over and expoded I tried to do what you said about heat shields, but obviously I did it wrong xD could you guys maybe show me an example? Because I dont really know what to do xD

Wow okay thanks Zhetaan!

Thanks a lot VoidSquid and AHHans!!

Thanks 5thHorseman!!

Thanks Zheetan! So I just went on Ike but I had some issues with the landing lol. I have have now I few questions about all those vectors, prograde, retrograde etc.. So on the picture, my retrograde is on the middle of the nav, so I should be falling straight down right? But still, I was falling down AND going a bit to the right, and more I was slowing down the lander, more I was going a bit to right, but my retrograde didnt moove. (it looked like i was "sliding" a bit to the right). So I tried to counter that movement by giving a bit of thrust in the opposite direction, but it didnt work. The thing is, the navball wasnt showing that movement. So is there something i'm missing? I'm sorry I hope you can understand, I can't record because of my computer because the navball I think was saying that I was going straight down but I wasnt exactly.

That's right, I didnt even think about Ike xD I'll try

Actually I prefer to land and come back xD i'll do another trip to Duna to train an get some science and i'll try Eve xD ty

What is the easier planet to land on after Duna?

Okay thanks a lot guys!!!!

Hey guys! I finally landed on Duna!! (and came back :D) it was actually really hard, escpecially the landing and coming back to Kerbin. But I made it! I took a few screenshots. https://imgur.com/a/c8EGind but it was really hard to land, because I think my lander was too high, so it has not that much balance I learned a lot during that trip, but I also have a few questions: for the parachutes: what does it change if you modify the min pressure ? Also, the entry on duna was supposed to be like that xD: https://imgur.com/a/wSyuE5H but instead: https://imgur.com/a/9s5YxX7 the ship flipped over do you guys have any idea on how to make it more stable when you enter into an atmosphere? here is the full trip: (almost) https://imgur.com/a/6EFno3j but how do you guys make the pictures appear on the forum?

Yeah ok ty!

Okay thanks Snark!
