If Mechjeb is cheating, then is Flight Engineer too?

Somebody telling someone else how to play a single player sandbox game isn't getting the idea.

Play the game however you like because really, why should someone else tell you?

I've never used any of them, but launches get really boring after a while. It's fun and all to design a new lifter or a new ship, but getting into orbit just becomes tedious and repeating. Most of the time I simply check the weight of my payloads, check if I have a lifter capable of taking that weight to orbit and just use HyperEdit to get it up.

MJ isn't cheating. It is a tool just like KER, and all the other plugins. It is your game use what you want. I have used both MJ and KER, and currently I am using MJ, because I don't need all the information that KER provides and MJ I can configure just a bit better. The only time I use MJ autopilot feature is when I am doing LONG burns and just don't want to be bothered with them.

MechJeb isn't cheating, but it won't generally win you any brownie points with the die-hards for using it either. Topic over.

You mean diehards like NASA?

Cause what they do looks more like Mechjeb than vanilla KSP

I use FE over MJ as I still like to do all my launches and burns.... even many dozens of times later. Each to their own. I don't see either as cheating as its single player. Play as you want.

Yes, MechJeb is cheating.

Flight Engineer is cheating.

Any assist mod is cheating.

Any mod is cheating.

SAS is cheating.

Playing KSP is cheating.

The only way not to cheat is to build a rocket in real life, paid with your money, with no electrical systems, and flown by you.

*sigh*

Nothing good will come from this discussion. Everyone has their own opinion.

Locking this thread, and please, don't start another one. Having 3 locked threads should be more than enough.
