Good day, I am Jod. I am currently obtaining a masters degree in aviation engineering and instead of preparing for exams I've been playing KSP for the past couple of weeks. I like all sorts of winged contraptions, engine noise, and shiny things.

Currently I'm going for a 0 stage aerospace game(everything is built in the aerospace hangar, no decouplers allowed), with SSTOs, space station modules, clampotrons etc. But there are several problems, mostly with Eve, which I hope I will solve eventually. On the upside, I've already perfected my first SSTO to the point where 40% of fuel is left after reaching low Kerbin orbit.

Tut-tut, you should be studying

Welcome to the forums!

Hope you'll keep us posted on how that space program goes; it sounds like quite an interesting idea. Maybe you could take a few screenshots, then post a thread in the Mission Reports section where you can post progress reports as you play.

Also, feel free to take a look at the Drawing Board (link in my sig). I'm going to assume that your background means you're thoroughly familiar with most of the basic concepts, but many of the player aids there are oriented towards helping players apply many of the more complex operations and calculations specifically to the game environment, as well as providing key maps for the different controls (as the game itself is rather slim on the documentation).

Happy landings!

P.S.:

Thanks, I've already glanced through the Drawing Board. The docking tutorial was helpful when I was assembling my space station.

I will look into the Mission Report section. I've already posted one of my missions in an unrelated SSTO topic, will probably move it there.

Happy Launching!
