Progressing nicely and enjoying career mode. Using Monthly Budgets, Kerbal Construction Time, RemoteTech and USI: Life Support all mean I am putting far more thought into missions and launches, and they are making me build/design more conservatively, rather than my old approach of brute force and ignorance when funds were not a factor Today I set up a deep space Comms network that covers as far as Joolian system, and I've sent off some probes to Eve and to Jool.

Eeloo. The magnificent desolation does it for me.

A couple for me. Firstly, building efficiently. No problem going between the planets, but my rockets are always brute force and ignorance Secondly, transporting rovers effectively and modular surface building. I can never picture it when I am designing in the VAB. For rovers (and other cargos) I can never picture how to properly secure the payload without it looking daft, or wobbling, etc. With the modular bases I can land in a decent target area, but never figure out how to move part a over to part b to dock (join) them into one unit. Instead I have lots of single launch buildings all close by, but never joined together! Also, my rovers, when I do manage to get them carried, look like a mess of girders I don't have an 'artistic' mindset at all, so visualising my builds is frustrating

Started a career mode save for the first time in... ever? Always stuck with Sandbox or Science before.

This. I use FF and it is a great way to rotate crew between flights so Jeb (etc) don't end up with all the milestones. Plus the rank insignia add-on for FF is a nice little extra immersion

I do believe that Kerbal Engineer will provide a relative inclination read-out, even when targeting a ground-based target, when using the Rendezvous option.
