I didnt check how long the trip would have been at the first attempt, but the map gives a tedious 30 years for the transfer with only 1.730 dV. I didn't check the duration of the first attempt, but I'm pretty sure you're right. The map with its 1.730 dV gives a tedious 30 years for the transfer. Since It's my first attempt to plan it by myself beforehand, instead of mechjeb-button-pushing, I tried to do it step by step first. I'll give it a new try with a direct transfer this evening and will see how it works )

Thanks for the explanation, AG5BPilot! For now, I don't care that much about how much dV I need in the end, I just want to know it in advance to build the spacecraft accordingly (doing it in the most efficent way will be a thing for later flights ). Since the stats in the map seem to be the very best cases I won't refer to them so strictly but instead use TWP to choose my own tradeoff between efficency, launch time and transfer time. Aww... Jeb will hate me for planning ahead and not just "aim and thrust!"

I understand this I have my craft already outside Gaels SOI and in an circular orbit around the sun (PE and AP roughly 14GM) . From there I wanted to intercept, but I need the 4.000 dV for just getting the AP up to the Hox Orbit of 427GM.

I have a small problem with the included Delta-V-Map: I just tried to send my first interplanetary satellite, destination Hox (first transfer window in a new game). The Delta-V-Map says I need 1.730 Delta-V to get an intercept, but planning the Hohmann transfer right after leaving Gaels SOI gives me much higher numbers (somewhere around 4.000). For Iota and Ceti the map was fine, but I don't know where the difference comes from... Its statet that the numbers in the map are given for normal Hohmann transfers, so I guess they don't include slingshots or similar tactics. The same for Niven, according to the map its only 90 Delta-V for an intercept, but just getting the PE down to its orbits takes a couple of thousand Delta-V, too. Am I doing or interpreting something wrong? Are those Numbers meant to be used for a direct intercept burn at Gaels PE (without leaving Gaels SOI first and THEN planing the transfer)? PS: Its my first save without using mechjeb doing everything and heavily overengineering my crafts, and I never really used the Delta-V-Map for the stock system, so I cant compare

Don't know whats up with youtube, but the music should not have been the problem since I'm using ProxTube to avoid this issue. Nevertheless, Vimeo worked for me. Big thanks to you! Great video! I got at least a few ideas for my next missions, although I wont be able to capture them the way you did!

The video still doesn't work for me, sadly - Still got "Video not available" I'm pretty curious, because I'm doing a rosetta replica myself at the moment... But its in no way as good as yours as far as I can tell from the screenshots PS: It's not only the embedded version, even the "original" right at youtube won't play

Everythings working fine here, too! The bugs I noticed two or three days ago are gone, yay!! Well done, its way better then the old one, much more well arranged!

I am starting to build an OKS Station for the first time. Im halfway through and for now everything looks fine but as far as I know myself I will end with a big "Dammnit, I forgot XY"! I think I'm kinda finished in around an hour and will post pics then! (unless I'm going unconscious because of head->table)

Exactly what I was thinking a few minutes ago!

Banned for driving around and returning from minmus with no vehicle! (ribbons never lie!)

Not only SSTO but SSTD - Single Stage to Duna! Cruising around in the atmosphere - sadly i didn't managed to land because jet engines wont work without oxygen and the rocket engine freaked me out for "normal" flying with this design, after like 10 attempts I gave up and returned (safely! yay!) I'm really proud of this for myself because around a week before this mission I wasnt even able to build an airplane that was flying straight in one direction
