  1. So, I have heavily gotten into this mod, and I have run into a strange situation now that there is signal delay. Obviously this is a User-Error type problem, but I'm wondering if anyone else has done this sucessfully/knows how to do it. What I'm working with: Unmanned probe designed to land on Eve: has 2 retractable 40Gm dishes on it, both connected to my coms network, multiple parachutes, and the basics (solar pannels, etc) Desired plan: Get to Eve and establish orbit at 100km (done) Set up and perform retro burn to come in over land (easy enough) Next comes the part that I can't figure out: Flight computer programming! (all of this must be done BEFORE atmospheric entry, else the dishes break due to high dynamic pressure) 1: Set SAS to retrograde (because it has a heatshield and I use Deadly re-entry) 2: Set parachutes to deploy at 10km alt (I know this is a bit high, but I'd rather wait a while to land than be ripped apart by gforces from deceleration) 3: Set landing legs to deploy (can be same time as parachutes, doesn't have to be though) 4: once landed, re-activate coms dishes. now, I know I can just use a large 'fixed' dish that doesn't care about atmosphere, but it's extremely un-realistic and quite frankly, they are heavy... and with the 90s+ delay at Eve, manually flying the probe will be extremely difficult and most likely result in destruction of the probe. SO, ultimately, how does one 'program' the flight computer to do things like this?
