What seemingly basic thing have you never done in KSP

[Thrawn889]

Built a Surface base anywhere.

 

[rkarmark]

Never gonne to any body and back without using cheats or mechjeb

Oh an i have played for atleast 300 hours

Go to Duna manned. I always worry I won't have enough fuel to get back and there is nothing worse than trying to rendezvous in the orbit of Kerbol.

I sent a load of kerbals in a pretty impressive ship to Duna orbit with fuel left. The problem? I had run out of RCS! It takes a lot of mono prop to move big MK3 based ships around.

[Human Person]

I never build a plane that would fly well. Then i tried out stock planes and kept crashing them as well. I'm done with aeronautics.

[Guest]

I'd have to say flying an aeroplane as well. I can fly a plane about as well as a jellyfish can tapdance.

That's what Vernor engines are for...

Yeah, I have never really used those because I'm afraid they will burn up my fuel LOL

[csch2]

Never made a successful plane... I've tried, I'm just terrible at making planes.

The trick is to pack more fuel than you need. Of course they burn fuel, they are rocket engines after all, but they have a higher specific impulse than monopropellant engines so they take less mass overall, and they have a higher thrust which makes them more useful.

Planes take a lot of practice and a lot of failed attempts. They're also significantly more complicated than rockets, so don't feel too disheartened if you can't get planes right the first time. I've had over 1100 hours in-game and I've only recently been able to make reasonably successful planes with a good amount of reliability (I've been making planes for a while but it used to be a lot more hit-or-miss regarding whether or not they'd work).

[specialopsdave]

I've never landed on Gilly. I've landed on TYLO, but not Gilly? Maybe that's just because I've only noticed one convenient Kerbin>Eve transfer window (but I've had two Kerbin>Jool), and I landed a probe on Eve, missing out on Gilly. I have a craft that can land on Minmus and the Mun in one launch, so how hard would Gilly be?

[Greenfire32]

Despite clocking in hundreds of hours and thousands of munar landings, I've only sent 1 Kerbal to Duna once and that's it. 2017 might finally be the year I start going to all the other places in the solar system...maybe...told myself I'd do it last year too...

[The Raging Sandwich]

I've landed on Duna, but never returned.

I've also never been to Eeloo in the stock game.

[munlander1]

I have never:

done anything with asteroids

land on a moon of another planet

land on Duna before this weekend

visit the Pluto analog

go to Moho  

[adsii1970]

I have never played more than three hours at a time...

[Leafbaron]

never made an attempt to collect science from Kerbin via plane or the like. 

[Sufficient Anonymity]

I hardly ever make it out of the Kerbin system crewed - for some reason my career saves end up looking like humanity's missions - a good dose of crewed activity in LKO, a little to moons, and otherwise probes to ALL THE THINGS.

[Cadet_BNSF]

Never been outside Kerbin SOI

Or Built a successful plane

or made a massive space station

or made a relay network

[DarkOwl57]

I've never rendezvous'd with a ship in LKO. I'M A DISGRACE!!!

Took me 2 weeks to figure out (work, go figure).

[stosyfir]

Never played in science or sandbox.. always career.

[eddiew]

Gone interplanetary with a pure-stock vessel... maybe that should be a goal for a future career.

Also I don't really make relay networks. I use stay-in-orbit transfer stages, so I just give them an excess of relay antennae and the network happens. There are many blind spots on planetary surfaces, but... it doesn't seem to matter? Not quite sure why people get so obsessed over relay constellations, tbh ^^; 

[OrbitalBuzzsaw]

Never built a working space shuttle. Don't know if that's "trivial", but I haven't done it.

[Nergal8617]

I have never left Kerbin SOI.  I will at some point, I just haven't yet.

[MinimalMinmus]

I've never been to another SOI than Kerbin (and Kerbol) with a kerballed craft.

I have a 70-tons 11 seat vessel in orbit which begs to differ however...
