Is there an in-game tool tool for planet information?
GeorgeFernell replied to GeorgeFernell's topic in Welcome Aboard
Appreciate the response. That's a shame In the meantime I discovered the maneuvertool that talks about "transfer windows" which I suppose is the exact thing I was looking for, to forecast planet movement in order to plan and schedule launches. But is seems so be broken :| It offered to get me to Minmus in 96 days when I (with painstaking node adjustment) found a "transfer window" in just 3h from my orbit. -

Hey guys Recently started KSP. Successfully crashed a couple of probes on Mun and was setting my eyes on Minmus. There is a problem however. I cant seem to find information regarding planets in game anywhere. I even upgraded my tracking station to max level in hopes of getting some useful stuff, but it seems to have been a mistake. Question: Is there information anywhere IN GAME where I can know orbit periods, aka how many Kerbin days does planet/moon(in this case Minmus) take to rotate around planet/sun. Yes I CAN technically smash the time warp button, watch and make an excel spreadsheet. But cmon, it would be completely insulting! + Missions are time limited so its not like time is free. I know that "haha funny Kerbals are dumb", but I would expect at least this information to be provided somewhere. P.S.: "Lol go read wiki" is an expected answer and by that point there is no reason to be playing the game. The entire fun proposition of the game is figuring out stuff by yourself. Im just really hoping for minimal convenience factor.
