Tortoise Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Thanks for the tutorial! Bookmarking this page. I think I'm ready to try again even though I know I'll find someway to **** it up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FREEFALL1984 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Very nicely done, might I also add regarding your docking section, docking can also be performed using the navball to align your ships, simply select to control from docking port as normal, and target the targets docking port, then point in the direction of the target market and rcs thrust forwards. the aim is to use the translation buttons ijklhn to keep your relative speed prograde marker (yellow) inside the target orientation marker (purple) as you drift closer you need to keep the markers aligned until you make contact the closer you get the more they'll drift apart unless you're positioning is perfect. I find this is helpful if you dont want to keep swiveling the camera around. Although this technique doesn't account for rotational orientation of the target ship so that bit still has to be done visually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starwhip Posted April 23, 2014 Author Share Posted April 23, 2014 Alright, I don't know why, but making a tutorial for the Asteroid Redirect Mission is turning out to be harder than expected. I'll see if I can start it up this weekend... I get the feeling I need to be alone with the game for a few hours to do this.I've successfully redirected many asteroids, but I can't seem to figure out where to start the tutorial! Suggestions, anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackKerbin Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Seriously dude, this tutorial is awesome! I just did my first docking in KSP and damn did it feel good!

Gonna get working on a space station soon!That's really helpful, I had to do several attempts at docking with my first attempt.Same with me.. I just did my first rendezvous & docking in orbit and am now questioning why I thought this was so hard before...and I also forgot solar panels or any type of power generation.. eh, not that much of a problem, Kerbals don't need life support anyways.

Kerbas_ad_astra Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 It would be good to have the tutorials in your first post link to their actual locations in this thread. At first, I had thought that there wasn't any actual content here until I scrolled down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starwhip Posted November 10, 2014 Author Share Posted November 10, 2014 Yeesh, I was wondering why I could see my thread up in the Tutorials page again. That's what you call a necropost, I think. I'm working on a more in-depth version now. Moderators, if you want to you may lock this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
