First "To the Mun" tutorial mission

[FrancoisH]

Hello there,

I'm a bit lost with this one tutorial. I got one big issue : the Tutorial say to start the engine half the estimated time before the calculated manoeuvre time. but I don't get any estimated time from the tool before the manoeuvre point is reached.

Can someone help me with this?

Kind regards.

Burn a bit so as to give the game a baseline on thrust provided by your engines.

It's a common glitch; the game has issues with calculating burn times for engines that haven't burned yet. As Kryxal says, "blipping" the throttle for half a second or so should give you an estimate.

Remember that you can always 'reset' the tutorial at the tutorial-starting screen.

As Specialist290 and Kryxal have said, bump the throttle so that the game can figure out your actual thrust and calculate the burn time.

On slow orbital speed, do try to make those burns prograde or retrograde. It might otherwise screw your orbit in a way that's hard to fix back.

A tip, if you have excess monopropellant, burn through at least 50% of it before you go for a landing proper. It's excess mass and extra delta/v that is often forgotten.
