-
Started playing when version .14 was found....Was doing the orbiter sim then found ksp. Liked it so much i paid for it.
I play cause i have to learn... and its space...its my space program.... no one is left behind or dies last mess o years. 1st big game landed everywhere to see if i could. Was mechjeb and forums... you people... which taught me. Lately its vanilla no one left behind or dies. Of course i quick save.
On a pause til next update then start again

Congrats big big time. Been playing for years and the mun still keeps me on my toes catching me with a steep landing zone. Then i gotta stay down and hope it doesnt tip over when i disable stability or i risk moving .... always fun the mun. Congrats again and ty for the picks. We all love seeing other lander setups.

Omg there ya go. I decided to check that link in your thanks and i learned about the radar altimeter. I usually went by shadow and spotlights facing down to see where ground height was. Well now i have another useful instrument thanxs to you. Congrats and thankyou. -
Memories....congrats for sure. Took days for me to get a good orbit. I remember i had to watch videos as i was gonna give up. But got there. Dont give up ever. Congrats again.

Lately, I've noticed, that KSP ...
not chance.
it's new game for me each update lol
I don't post much lately as I don't have much to add that is already covered
many people are on their pads and phones..
have no fear... KSP is here
-
excellent job. welcome
what's your next mission?
-
wow Ziv
that was a great mess o screenshots
great mission planning and great ship(s) concept
-
suicide burns?
currently searching the forums.... what is a suicide burn?.
bet i do it but don't know the name
answer: Set a descent orbit, burn retrograde at full power at the last possible moment before impact becomes inevitable. You wind up only burning vertically for seconds.

welcome to the forums and happy landing
-
Problem is when it's on the launchpad and I turn up the throttle and press space theres a wooshing noise then nothing...
that sounds like the engines are 'activating' but then not firing...
have you tried hitting space again?
-
I laughed because I bet I have done each thing
Don't think I have had an anomaly free long distance mission yet
-
bet you were a happy person when you touched down on the Mun
it is always a great feeling
with that slope and sideways movement... was expecting an explosion
good job on that landing
-
welcome and happy landings
-
congrats for sure
it is always a great feeling when they connect into one after a long time of adjusting
it will get easier and easier every time you dock
p.s. keep those RCA centered and balanced.. pain in the butt when the ship isn't balanced
-
parts are on the left.. you will have to pick a command part 1st
try the 'loading' option on the top right to see if the game loads a pre-made rocket too
check out the massive amount of youtube videos as well.. many there for starting from scratch
as for what to do 1st.. up to you. My 1st mission was to get to orbit .. took days and a whole lotta weeds before i started watching youtube and learning
-
welcome and happy launching (and crashing)
-
wait a few days of game time and the Mun should be outta the way or
i remember seeing that Mun in the way often and i usually set the transfer so it just misses the Mun and do a mid-course correction burn once I am past the Mun to get into Minmus orbit
-
.
However, because I liked the game and I wanted to support the devs, I decided to buy the game.
that is exactly why i bought the game. was also on another 'version' but liked it so much i had to support KSP
welcome and happy launches
-
sure date my age
Ya i remember sitting in front of the parents TV watching
-
my fav tip is no rushing..
i have found that i will do a lot more orbits now as I am running stock, no mechjeb or anything
ship already in orbit we'll call B
2nd ship we'll call A
put B with the docking port facing UP (like facing the north pole) so it revolves around it's own center
ship A will be facing down (towards south pole)
this eliminates the constant chasing of the ports
that is of course if you have already ship A in a pretty close orbit to B
good luck.. it takes a lot of practice and patience but major joy joy feelings when you do get that dock
remember take time and small adjustments
-
start from scratch and run stock in hopes of not killing anyone with my accumulated knowledge
-
everything is working so far
I am running stock and so far less struts are needed and everything is working as supposed to
-
not sure of the question
usually to 'space out' you get some weed
if you mean the 'space bar' as for staging.. haven't found another use for space
Do you use mechjeb anymore?

in the beginning yes as i had no clue how to do anything. It taught me. For the last few years I don't use it.
