Thanks! I already have the kerbal engineer mod, but it doesn't seem to calculate delta v for solid fuel rockets, and it doesn't seem to be adding much delta v for asparagus staging. Unless I'm using it wrong or something.

Oh, and I'm confused as to how to do the math for calculating delta v and asparagus staging. Do you just calculate the delta v with the mass of spent fuel off your first asparagus "leaf"?

I've tried asparagus staging, but even with that it doesn't seem to be working.. I've looked at several of Scott manleys videos, and I understand the physics behind the ideas, but im still missing something... I was at my bachelor party this weekend, so I can't upload a rocket now, I'll do that tomorrow. What's typically the optimum fuel tank to engine to use for your asparagus stages? Ive been using the kerbal engineer mod but its not showing a large difference in delta v with asparagusing my rocket (I've been doing the math on paper too, not just with the mod).

Hello! I just stared playing ksp, and I'm enjoying it, although I'm missing a few hair clumps now. I can't figure out building efficient rockets. Does anyone have any tips on doing so? I calculate all of my delta v, account for weight loss through staging, calculate my thrust to weight, but I still can't get a lander on the moon. I can get sattelites into orbit, but I can't find an efficient rocket to get a lander to the moon. Any ideas, tips, or avenues to try? Thanks
