Mission not completing


Recommended Posts

can't tell from the picture, but most likely you are orbiting in a retrograde direction. Open advanced information on orbit (on the bottom left menu, second tab), you can see your orbital inclination. See if it matches with what you are supposed to do, or if it's shifted by 180 degrees

You may see an inclination detailed in the [+] note section in the contract, or perhaps in the active contracts view of mission control.  Compare that to the inclination you have (shown on the second tab on the left bottom display, just above where it says ORBIT).

If you are indeed going the wrong direction, burning retrograde for (about) 822.4m/s can fix it.  You have plenty of dv with which to achieve that.

I have often wished they made it graphically more obvious which direction these contract orbits are, but then I suppose that's part of the 'charm' of the 'devil in the detail' of the contract system. :D
