Multiple little questions - removing flags - transferring fuel etc...


Recommended Posts

LOVE THIS GAME/SIM.

I'm a fan of the 'stock' career and have enjoyed 'learning' each new skill as it becomes necessary. A few dumb questions if I may...

1 - Is there any way (even a backdoor edit) that I can get rid of flags I've planted? They are cluttering up my life at this point.

2 - Is there any way to transfer fuel between docked fuel tanks in orbit?

3 - I want to rename or repaint some Kerbils but can't seem to download the Kerbilizer. It just keeps upgrading my Unity engine but I don't get any app with it. (Are Kerbils a mono-sexual species? No chick Kerbils? How do they reproduce?)

Sure : Right click on first tank. Alt+Right click on second tank. Click on "IN" or "OUT" depending on what you want to do

Kerbals don't reproduce : why would they ? They are eternal, don't need water, food, nothing. They can stay in the darkness of space for centuries, with no problem. Their only known way of dying is rocket-related. With all of that, it is evident that reproduction would mean overpopulation.

1 - End mission from the tracking station

2 - right click on one tank, mod+right click on the other. Note that depending on your OS, the mod key could be left alt (Windows), option (OSX), or right shift (Linux).

3 - My working assumptions involve cloning vats, spores, and/or no notable dimorphism. Personally I'd like to see a bunch of "feminine" syllables added to the name generator, and be done with it.

Check the tracking station. Flags should be present as "vehicles." You can just "recover" them if they're on Kerbin, or "Terminate" them if they're elsewhere.

2 - Is there any way to transfer fuel between docked fuel tanks in orbit?

Check the Spaceport for a mod called TAC Fuel Balancer. It's pretty darn handy.

No idea. You'd have to ask Squad.

1 - If you don't want to just terminate the mission, you could always send a Kerbal out there to pick them up. That takes time but if you're not doing anything...

2 - Been covered. TAC is a nice mod.

3 - Kerbal biology is quite mysterious. That said, I believe the Crew Manifest mod includes an option to let you rename Kerbals unless I am very much mistaken.

This would never, EVER have occurred to me. Talk about self-perpetuation of mission goals... "Gotta go get that stupid flag. Got it!" <plants flag>

Rocket-related deaths? Believe me, I've done my bit to curb Kerbal population.

My biggest ship so far carries 12 decks of 96 hitchiker cans each, and i have *almost* managed to get it to orbit without RUD.

Since everyone else has satisfactrily answed the others, You can go pick up all your flags (Good luck with that since it requires precision landing) or if you go to map mode, and hover near the top-center of the screen there is a little bar that drops down, simply right click the flag icon. and POOF! No more flags. (They are still there, but you won't be able to see them in map mode.
