  1. You guys really should give us the option to add a thread prefix on the mobile version, it causes a lot of problems when creating threads like this that require me to select one of the 2. And the desktop version is just big.
  2. Realistic or not, kerbol is its own unique solar system, therefore Kerbin is allowed to have 2 moons. I don't believe it will ever be removed because it woule cause a lot of problems with players that hve stuff on minmua. And if you want somewhere to go, thats far away amd easy to land on, Gilly has less gravity than minmus.
  3. A picture would help. But I use FAR and I gently gravity turn at 10km.
  4. You need to right-click the claw and hit "Release" to retract it.
  5. Try doing a test-flight prior to programming the autopilot. And see what altitude your apoapsis reaches above 70km. Then write the kos script and launch under the same conditions.
  6. I never actually put fins on my rockets, but I do use an SAS module on each stage. But I'd say just put the fins on the bottom 4-symmetry
  7. You can also fire up the engine and slightly burn retrograde before the main chute opens, to slow your speed down further and reduce G's. But with the chutes, you can just re-pack them once you land. Just EVA a kerbal and right-click the parachute.
  8. After we revert or go to another flight, infinite fuel should automatically be disabled so we don't forget about it and ruin our next launch.
  9. I wish this would've been released BEFORE i made my space-station -.- Nice!
  10. You can press - and + on your numpad to zoom out. And also press The Pageup and Pagedown key to go up and down. You can view all the available controls here.
  11. If you install FAR, itll be similar to real life.
  12. Many people make SSTOs for aesthetics and stuff. But do any of you actually have sstos that you make and use commercially or are your favorite? This is one of mines. Max payload is 4 tons/20 mass (although can lift more, if I authorize it) It is used to deliver cargo to my space station in LKO. It uses a single stage to gain inclined orbit, then another stage separates when in orbit, which tugs the cargo the way to my station, it is expendable. Its called the Smizore V2 What are the stats of yours?
  13. The budget system won't affect my space program much. Depending on if there's and atmosphere or not, I usually land with 2 chutes
  14. Alright, So you know how the wiki has a full description of each planet (or moon)? http://wiki.kerbalspaceprogram.com/wiki/Eve there should be parts where instead of going to the wikipedia all the time to plan your landing, you can send unmanned satellites and rovers first to gather most data. But after that, you can also save the data to where you can view it in the space center. Then you can refer to it for future manned trips. And sometimes data would be slightly inaccurate for more realism.
  15. I usually minimize the times I quicksave . Unless I'm on re-entry and mess up, so I have to go back. But IRL ofcourse, if I ran a space program I wouldn't mess up because I'd simulate most possible outcomes and practice prior to the mission.
  16. You should be able to transmit all your data, already. Whats your problem? Is it taking too long?
  17. So tell me about some of your worst disasters/anomalies in ksp. I've had a few minor anomalies, but tell me about yours
