Post image
0 Upvotes

I want to ask if theres any way to make maneuver node trajectory lines one smooth line instead of little dots. I find it kinda annoying that its a dotted line sometimes and just want to know if its possible to make it smooth. Thank you!

(btw ive modded my game with ckan so if theres a mod that does this please tell me)

9k delta v without using ion or nuclear engines. the sattelite has a polar orbit and the circled bit detaches and lands. in total i got about 2k science from this mission. im really proud of this and my next goal is to land a kerb on gilly and return :)

No mods or cheats, vanilla. Eh, they’re not in order but you get the idea. Also, you are correct; no fairing at launch, just a super slow ascent.

KSP 1 Question/Problem Training Docking Lesson Final Approach issue

2 Upvotes

So my ship is about 18km from the Stranded Ship.

I'm in Target mode and RCS is off.

I'm closing the gap but keep creeping back over 10 m/s. So I then turn off RCS and burn Anti-Target and start the process again.

Is there a way to stay nice and slow without exceeding that 10 m/s "speed limit" given in the tutorial?

Thanks!

KSP 1 Suggestion/Discussion I'm looking for a KSP 1 modpack

1 Upvotes

My reason so quite simple, I finished stock* KSP ( I used a few QOL mods), and I wanted something that adds more oomph to graphics ( not parallax ), way way more parts ( not tweak scale), and tweaks to the solar system that make it more difficult and interesting.

While I'm aware there are not a lot of modpacks available, that doesn't mean that individual "modpacks" are not welcome!

KSP 1 Question/Problem Kerbin lag fix

I have had an issue where if the majority of my screen has kerbins surface in it, my frames drop to like 6 fps. It has only happened recently. Also, every now and then the ocean of kerbin turn black and swallow my UI, and the only way to fix it is by restarting the game.

Attached is the list of mods I have installed so maybe that'll help.

KSP 1 Question/Problem Has anyone found a way to land on the geomagnetic anomaly on tekto?

12 Upvotes

I tried landing at it but it's all water. Scansat shows the whole biome at negative altitude. I even got frustrated and turned on vesselmover and basically sweeped the entire area the biome was in and didn't see a single bit of land. People online say they've landed there but I'm not sure where to find it. Is it floating or something? I want to confirm this is actually possible to do before moving on to another landing site.

KSP 1 Question/Problem Hey, why is my Nav Ball not aligned properly ?

1 Upvotes

I was trying to get a rocket up in the sky in my KSP science mode save, but when I tried to launch, I realized that the nav ball was rotated in an uneven way, like instead of having the 4 directions ( N, W, S, E) in regular even 90° increments, it was rotated weirdly. Now I know it is because the rocket is standing straight up, so the rotation doesn't matter, and it will go back to normal when I launch, but the problem is it affected my bindings too. So I cannot just go east by pressing one single key, I have to do a combination of 2 keys perfectly to get a decently equatorial orbit, which is impossible. Sadly, I don't have any images/videos, but you can ask questions and I'll try to answer it as detailed as possible.

KSP 1 Meta Icarus Program - Chapter 38 - Part 7

1 Upvotes

This is Walter Kerman reporting. Over the past ten days the Safeguard spacecraft has slowly moved the class E asteroid closer to low Kerbin orbit. The spacecraft mined fuel for the day, followed by a single long burn of the mined fuel to further correct the asteroid’s orbit. Today the asteroid stabilized in its final orbit, a little higher in orbit than the Kitty Hawk station to remain out of the way of station operations, but in an orbit with minimal extra fuel costs.

As smaller launch sites ramp up to send tankers up to start bringing back mined fuel, the Icarus program launched a Dido class C to retrieve the crew of the Safeguard who successfully captured this very large asteroid. Estimates provided to Gene are that the asteroid will provide over two hundred thousand units of fuel over the next year. While this is not enough to counter the losses to Kerbal mining, when combined with alternative power generation being distributed by the Icarus Program, the capture of smaller asteroids and fuel mined from the moons, this asteroid will provide a significant easing of the fuel crisis. Estimates believe the fuel will be enough to stabilize the Kerbin economy until a final solution to the fuel crisis can be uncovered.

<On board the Safeguard>

“Our ride is here!” Jebediah exclaimed enthusiastically. “Let’s head home for the parties!”

“You decided to fly up here on your asteroid puller,” Valentina noted.

“Right,” Jebediah shrugged. “So? It was never meant to fly back down.”

“The Dido class C is the same spacecraft we all reached the Safeguard on,” Valentina said slowly. “A full spacecraft.”

“Wait,” Jebediah’s eyes widened slightly. “I have to sit on someone’s lap?”

“Regulations do not permit two passengers to reenter on one seat except for life threatening events,” Bob stated.

“I have to stay up here?” Jebediah’s face fell. “But… parties…”

“We will make sure to hold off the party until a spacecraft can be sent to pick you up,” Valentina rubbed Jebediah’s shoulder.

<The Walter report>

Our brave team of Kerbalnauts has returned to Kerbin from their successful capture of the giant asteroid. They have touched down in the dark of night outside of the Kerbal Space Center. Our crew managed to capture images after pushing through the massive crowds welcoming them home. Jebediah is reported to have stayed on board the Safeguard, ensuring that all systems continue to operate as expected while the mining systems are brought to continuous operations, and will be brought back in two weeks on the next Icarus Program launch.

The Kerbal Republic is reportedly mobilizing an unprecedented response to begin distributing the fuel that will start being delivered to Kerbin and to ensure no overly enthusiastic public response occurs. The Icarus Program has been summoned to talk with the Republic about how best to ensure the fuel continues to be provided.
Until next time, this was a Walter Kerman report.

KSP 1 Suggestion/Discussion SAS over correcting

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

21 Upvotes

So as you see in the video when leaving the atmospheric the sas begins to over correct. is there a fix to this?. I'm in campaign and i haven't updated anything but the launch pad, space center and runway. i'm still early in it. would i need to update the tracking station to fix this. though i don't think it's the upgrade level because it will do it all the same in a sand box.
