Interplanetary transfer helper miod?

[Pawelk198604]

Does is any add-on that help transfer. I knew about Mechjeb i have Mechjeb 2, but it can calculate 120 or 180 days to make maneuver even if planetary angle is perfect.

In previous update i sent kerbals to flyby mission around Eve and back to Kerbin, and don't required much Delta-V but i just have luck, usually my mission ended somewhere in Kerbal system but not in place where i was intended to do:)

with 120 or 180 days, do you mean the "Node in. T- x days, x hours, x minutes, and x seconds"? If so, then just enable "Auto-Warp".

But when i put spacecraft on parking orbit 100 km around Kerbin i can't use full warp.

There's a way to get around this particular problem, saving you quite a bit of time so you're not at low warp waiting for your transfer window.

Firstly MechJeb will still calculate an accurate time-to your transfer window if you ask it to set up a transfer while you're still on the pad. Since you're stationary on the pad you can use full-speed time warp; simply stop the warp roughly an orbit before the slated transfer window (say 40 minutes). You can then launch to orbit and you're practically at the transfer time point.

Just make sure you delete the old node and re-calculate the transfer. All should be well and no lengthy warps in low orbit.

Put a satellite into orbit at 1000km around Kerbin. Launch transfer craft, go to map, switch to satellite, time compress at full FTW, go to map, switch to transfer craft.

Having something like Kerbal Alarm Clock will help. You can also use MechJeb, but remember that the time it displays is not the time in the Space Center, nor the time used by apps like Alexmun's Launch Window Planner, you'll have to adjust by one day.

second this. if you install only a single plugin make it Alarm Clock.

right now I have 3 different missions in flight all of them with pre-programmed maneuvers coming up with 3-5 more in the planning stages. Kerbal Alarm Clock alerts me when it's time with a default lead time of 1 minute and the option of transferring to that craft and restoring the maneuver node. If you so choose (I did) it can search for particular events and automagically add them. like SOI changes
