  1. Kgries, just want to check if the images I see in my head works. Oh, agree with the person earlier cursing 9-5 jobs and all that I imagine an 2D drawing of an asteroid with a number of flat surfaces forming a circle, think of a dodecahedron with different angles, and its center of mass near the center. As I grab onto the asteroid the claw will do so at 90 degrees to the surface, i.e. the ships centreline is most likely not pointing at the center of mass. So, thrusting in this configuration will cause spin due to off center thrust. Now, unlock the claw gimbal and rotate the ship to center the pink marker. Lock the gimbal. This means that the thrust points directly at the center of mass, therefore not causing the asteroid/ship combo to start spinning? That´s your "attachment angle" zeroed out?
  2. I don´t think Space Shuttle Missions Simulator has been mentioned?
  3. Cheers. I´m in the process of gathering science by visiting biomes on Minmus and then Mun. Being a lazy (efficient?) fellow I was wondering if one can find replacement planet textures colored by biome? I´m having a hard time correlating the biome pictures and maps I find online to what I see in map mode around Minmus.
  4. Just wanted to add my thanks for this guide. I frequently run out of fuel, but staying with your designs means that I have to work at better piloting and navigational skills instead of going the easy route and just add moar boosterz.
