Hello!

[BeatenRailroad]

Hi everyone! I'm not new to KSP per se (meaning I only understand the science as far as a high school physics class can get me) but after coming back here to the forums for help time and time again via other peoples problems/posts I figured I might as well join the community! So hello!!

Hmm what esle, I like long walks on the beach, I'm a Sagittarius ... I'm kidding. I do enjoy drawing, playing pc games (on my less than capable (its crap really) pc), Steampunk, shows like: Stargate, Continuum, Eureka, The Daily Show with Jon Stewart.

That probably tells enough about me I think?

Oh! And I'm super excited for the .24 update!

Welcome to the forums!

High-school math and physics will actually get you farther than you may think! If you can plot an ellipse or a parabola on a piece of graph paper, then you know everything you need to describe an orbit, and the rocket equation you can use to figure out a craft's delta-v potential only requires basic algebra -- in fact, it's really just good ol' F = ma restated in a way to account for the fact that a rocket's mass is constantly changing as it burns fuel.

Glad to hear you've been making good use of the forums already. If you still feel you need help on anything, feel free to ask questions or to check out some of the tutorials and resources I've listed on the Drawing Board (which is conveniently linked through my signature). In general, make yourself at home.

Hope this helps!

As Specialist says, high school maths will carry you far.

You also have an advantage no engineer at NASA ever has had. Trial and Error is your friend Have fun failing
