  1. Well i have everything from tree level 3 and from tree level 4 i have flight control and advanced rocketry. is there a good way to land to the North and South pole because i should get there as i have researched... (I used to be better on sandbox)
  2. I dont have the reaction wheel unlocked because i am unable to get science fast enough! managed to go to orbit once, tried it again and the rocket wont fly!
  3. every single rocket i make small or big spins and won't go anywhere... also it tilts to random places for no reason! Winglets dont even help in any way aswell../ they dont move/help to change direction! Every single thing on my rocket is build using mirror so there is no way they have been put wrongly... I sit trying to press D to tilt and go to orbit and it does nothing it just stays spinning and tilting wherever it wants! After trying Career mode the game sucks!
  4. extract the rar and get the .craft from in there not that hard.. and why do you have Internet Explorer for .rar files?
  5. I mean that i am not good in building ships that can lift heavy stuff.... I had seen a link that had premade heavy lifters. Space station stuff mean that i am not good in docking (Even about 10 hours trying to dock the second part of my space station... i will restart the whole second part launch..) For surface bases i do not understand what my stuff should be like+what are the things most needed for a 'base' to actually be a base!... Anyways my biggest question has to do with rovers! what are the main parts needed (Except tyres and a seat) i have seen others having cool stuff on them! like some weird pipes and stuff
  6. I am thinking of making a moon base as the space station stuff is hard, I am thinking of making the first part the living quarters and send a rover up there for exploration... What are the basics of making a mun base? I mean if i make a build that i will land on the moon will i be able to find a heavy lifter? i mean a lifter that will lift something heavy
  7. i can get them close! i have a quick save reaally really close it is the ship the problem...
  8. Ok, i guess i will have to be reaally close rotate towards facing down then rotate again and uh... try 1000 times or just relaunch the bloody thing corrected (the downside is that i may never rendezvous again
  9. Ok, no wthat i know how to renzdevous+dock (well i went really close but i pressed a wrong button and that is why the question is here) I have something in space that is not very good structurarly (rcs a decouple and docking port for the docking with the otehr part of the station) this means that when i decouple close to the docking port so that i dock i can only rotate and not translate which is impossible because i cannot move just rotate! So is there a way to change a current ship in the air (lets sya they have the same names) so that i fix that on the spot on the vehicle builder and it has changed in mid-air (orbit) i wish taht is possible because it reaally is getting annoying (AFter loads of time trying to do a correct rendezvous
  10. how to change to dockmode? I have ASAS turned off, I will change to default settings and i will retry soon thanks for all the tips, rendezvous is the easy part (i found it easy) docking is the hard part...
  11. so translate means move and rotate mins to spin around like an idiot? I guess that is my problem, i watched scott Manley's tutorial on how to rendezvous and he came sooo close and perfect, i mean his ships stop really close and he was able to put them facing oposite directions so he can dock them reaaally easy, I spend 2 hours and i managed ehhh nothing whenever i came close i overshoot! Anyways i will keep trying
  12. the problem is i cannot get 0.1 or 0.2 i cannot get less than 0.4, I cannot find a very good place to mount the buttons, also if i just want to move right or left (not spin just move) what button is it (i mean on translation or rotation?) It really confuses me and the chase camera makes me dizzy sometimes
  13. i can retract the solar panels if i want to, the two parts are very very small (not big at all) in size. I have been trying for 2 hours, i have 8 rcs ports (4 on the bottom and 4 on the top of the second ship) the problem is that my docking port is actually blocked by one of the rcs tanks (i jettison it when close to the other docking port) so it may move the other ship, i also tried to have one ship between the retrograde and prograde (whatever the name is) markers so it does not 'spin' around making it harder but i someone touch it and destroy it. I used the fine controls but still no fix, i have it saved on a situation that the one ship has almost full rcs, The biggest problem is that the orbits are not exactly the same so sometimes one goes faaar away and i have to restart all over.
  14. Ok, i have twho parts of a space station one next to the otehr (about 10 meters) i have the first part in a way so it does not spin around, i am traveling at 1 m/s to the target and i press it for less that a a seccond to go backwards (using rcs) but i overshoot and almsot hit the panels, then i try to just keep it on 0 but it instantly goes away from the target or closer i cannot get it to 0 from 4 it just goes to 4 away from 4 away it goes to 4 towards, Do you know why? Should i give my save to anybody here so that they can do it for me it jsut not WORKING
  15. I have loads of fuel, i am currently 600 meters away and moving at about 3 m/s (really slow because it is my first time, going fast is not the best thing as my craft is heavy and hard to maneuver without rcs (i do not want to waste it now so i can have room for small mistakes when docking) For a short period of time i may as well close every panels on the part that is now in the air so i can have extra space for errors Going slow but steady is the way to go!
  16. well waht you can do is place the legs (the ones that can retract) and place also some of the landing gears that can retract on the same side, keep the side engines as they are and activate them only when you need to... so what you would do is land with landing struts, open the landing gear, retract the struts and there you go... if oyou tried that already then i do not know anything else
  17. I managed to get it in orbit now!, Also i managed to get (on the second correct try) a difference of 6.4 km is that ok to rendezvous? Or it has to be even closer?
  18. Ok i managed to get it in orbit and have an intersection with seperation of 8.2 km !!!! the problem is that because it is a testing 'rocket' incase of a failure i have a parachute on and no docking port i guess i have to land it and take off again with docking ports
  19. Great, i used hte orange tank and a mainsail (it has triple the thrust of that thing that i had in the first post) but it is reaaally woobly so much in the gravitational turn it gets out of control!, I guess i should try and use boosters? and asparagus stage them around the build in the first post?
  20. it does not tilt over it is flying straight the problem is that i cannot get it into orbit, Cmon anybody help me...
  21. does it ahve to do with the top part being to heavy?, I am scared of adding even more thigns to the bottom to make it lift off the ground (which it does) because it may just be too much, I tought it would work as on my first try (first part) i had A LOT of fuel remaining, well i will wait for mroe answers anyways
