Hi, I am sorry if this is a dump question, but I would like to post some of my creations, and ideas into the fourm but when I go and click on the "Import Image", I am informed by the software that it can't update the image. Why ?

A general Build Question, I have watch many good tutorials on how to dock two space crafts together, and how to dock to a Stock Space Station core. so my question is, the youtube clips are using a Mark 1 Command pod with a Clmp O Tron Jr, but I have just discovered apart 30 mins flight time that you are not able to connect as the Jr Clamp is to small, for the Station port as this will need a Clamp O Tron "normal" so how were you able to use a Mk1 Command pod with at looks like the Jr Clamp. https://www.dropbox.com/s/9nl1q9souivppbn/Mk1%20Command%20Pod%20with%20Jr%20Clamp.JPG

I would go down the path of the The X-38 Crew Return Vehicle (CRV)

ok, I must be doing something dumb, I can't get the RCS Thrusters to work, so that I can move my ship in, all I am getting is the auto thrusting and I am not able to move in slowly :-(

Sorry all, after posted this, I found this link, and it covered the issue i was having, http://youtu.be/bn83H0PHWbI

I have been trying to get two ships docked in space, but I having a bit of issue with the last stage, I have been able to get the second module about 1km away, or less but I fine that when i fire my docking thrusters, I find that I am not able to dock it, as I am having all or non of the thrusters going, After watching some youTube Videos, i see some have people have been able to get the docking module to spend on the dot, or go up or down, can someone please example how this is done, and if possible give instructions.

@ Digestif many thanks

Can anyone please inform me any good mods, as I am trying to build a good Station, with some long Solar Panels, but I am not able to find any?

then how to you link your Ribbons to your KSP fourm Sig's ?

ok, this mod is driving me up the wall, ok, I have the lastest version of KSP installed, and I have place all mechjeb folder " [0.19] MechJeb 1.9.8 " inside the Gamedata folder, is this right, or do I need to install it inside the other folders, like in the version ,18 for KSP

I've crashed and burned so many times, but the best is a good Fly by of mun, and going into deep space with no fuel

to never give up, and try and try again

Hi Tomf, I have tryed both, as I am trying to get the autoplot mod, to help me to get items into space. but I can't get it to work.

can someone please inform me on how you can get the display information windows on your screen, as I have watch many videos of other people missions, and I see that some of then are using the information windows to help them to Nav or view the Fual gage of they tanks.

thanks AKnar for the hot fix, but I didn't work for me, I am sorry that I put in the wrong version, I am using the current version 2.20. I have place all the files into a sub folder within Datagame, but it is still not playing :- https://www.dropbox.com/s/1aeuzysm0dkyrnq/FolderLay.GIF

thanks for the information, I downloaded the MOD and installed it as instructed but for some reason it is not showing the new icon. the version of KSP is V0.20.0.162, I also have some new text on the flash screen "Run Unit Tests" ? what am I doing wrong ? ps. Sorry I type in the Wrong Version, I have the lastest Version 20.2

I haven’t gotten this far as I am still having fun and games trying to get a reliably Heavy lifter to work, but once I do this, and I will want to start and use this Heavy lift as my work horse to lift all the components into space, like my space station, if this possible, or will have to choose one item, and build the other ?

I also have been having issues in getting a reliably Heavy lifter to work, can someone please post a example or list the parts, as so far every time I try and lift something I get one of two things happen. one: it lifts off, and around 10,000m, it turns and nose dive for the ground, or Two: it run short of getting into orbit, and crash landing on the other side of the plant.

Being able to mine a plant and then return back to base with the mined items. so that you can use the items in some form of research lab, to update or expand the Kerbal knowledge

a friend purchase it for me, and gave me the game as a Priz, so I have a folder on my desktop with I use. at the moment it is asking me to update to the lastest version, but it looks like I have to purchase the game again, :-( so i have ask my friend to look into this.

A bit of topic, but how about creating our only planets and gas plants, like they did in Star Trek ? send out a probe, and of it go’s ? for a gas plant you send it into a cloud of gas ?

@Stochasty, is you first name Homer ?

nice design, and I also like the idea of building the station on the ground first, before talking it to the moon

I have crashed and burned so many times, the best one so that is that my Rocker was twisting and turning on all alixs :-), and finishing off in a good old crash into the command center

Like many others I don’t normally post on a Hello-type of forum I also picked up the Demo a few days go after seeing postings of the game on Youtube. And I have been having fun, after getting the hang of getting my ships into Orbit. And losing so many Kerbal personal.
