[QUOTE=mecaguy03;37732905]So how the fuck does this ORDA mod work with docking? I have my module up at the station node, the station has a docking target part and the node has a docking system part. Yet they wont dock even when perfectly aligned[/QUOTE]
Wait there is a docking mod now?
For reals?

My best transfer yet
Does Mechjeb need any updating to run on .17?
"I'll be to Eve in no time."
7 hours later not even close

Yes and the 0.17 update can be found here [url]http://www.kerbal.net/mod.php?id=20[/url]
Sorry I haven't got pics from 0.17 so have this instead :(

Mechjeb still makes warp move like a slug when trying to use the transfer feature
Has he added the new planets in mechjeb or is it just a compability update atm?
He added the new planets
[QUOTE=Shoar;37733032]He added the new planets[/QUOTE]
Nice, isn't the UI super cluttered now?
And can you transfer from a planet to a moon on that planet? or is everything from kerbin?
Bought the game. Yay.
Tried to rendezvous manually for a change. I've only rendezvoused three times before this and they were both using Mechjeb. I wanted to see what HARDMODE was like.
I spent two hours building a space plane with a similar launch set up as the real Space Shuttle. That was a huge pain in the ass because building anything that is asymmetrical like that is extremely difficult. It doesn’t help that even if it’s perfectly balanced on takeoff, as the fuel drains the balance shifts. I could go into a lot of detail about how I got this thing to work but I won’t.
It was a lot of pain but it was all worth it.

Mechjeb has probably increased the amount of my college lessons I pick up and won't have to reread, yay!
My experience with the tutorials:
- Orbiting 101 (Basic Flight is missing? Okay)
- Did it from the first try c:
- Mun landing part 1
- picked the wrong spot, hit reset, reset makes engines not work for some reason. restarted the mission and started using quick-save, quick-load.
- Yay I got to the Mun orbit c:
- No part 2? :c
- Tried landing on the Mun. Did lots of hovering and lost control, crashed, but command pod survived.
- Retried. Didn't brake soon enough, crashed at high speed.
- Retried. Killed the vertical velocity near the surface, but still had horizontal. Hovering, flipped over, crashed.
- Retried. This time I landed correctly C:
- YAY I'M ON THE MOON
- Tried to launch. Not enough fuel.
- Loaded the save when I was descending, but still pretty high up and lots of fuel.
- Restored a minimal orbit around the moon.
- Just barely enough fuel for a transfer to Kerbal.
- Waited until descending to Kerbal.
- Tried to slow down, but run out of fuel.
- Jettisoned the last stage. This gave me a tiny kick.
- Velocity finally below 300 m/s. 8 km to ground.
- Splash into the water because I couldn't find the button that opens the parachute :(
This game is exciting :smile:
Oh god it was so far back when i last played the game, the store wont load really.
Cant seem to do that orbit thing any more, put a gazillion rockets to my ship and I barely make it out of the atmosphere
Goddamnit I want to update!
[QUOTE=Kickasskyle;37731443]Jolly old trip to Jool with my Verne probe.

Landing took about 3 attempts to land it, this is a god damn horrific [b]moon[/b] to land on.[/QUOTE]
Try click on the velocity thing, it should switch from "orbit" to "surface" relative.
Seriously though, how do I open the parachute?
[QUOTE=Nikita;37733570]Seriously though, how do I open the parachute?[/QUOTE]
It is controlled by the rocket stages but your parachute won't open when your not in atmo and you won't get the drag chute to ~6-7k iirc and it wont open till between 500 and 1000m. That is my best recollection of the stock chutes but I'm pretty sure modded chutes have different values for that.
Oh man, played this while opening 0.17
Hit that amazing part when I saw all the planets.

Is there any way I can get a download link without going to their main page? It's not loading for me. Or does anybody have their email so I can email 'em and provide my account details and then request a link personally?
Finished downloading before I went to bed last night.
How am I supposed to do work today?
hi
Managed to get the patcher and waited for it to download the update but it keeps saying the md5 of the readme is different then whats expected for some reason.:suicide:
Can anyone that has used the API tell me which angles that are given to you back from the game?
Is anyone else getting a problem with downloading the entire game? Managed to get onto the site and download it but now I'm getting an archive error with the rar.
So err... My stationary unlaunched craft blew up on the pad after I zoomed all the way out and back in.
The Skycrane lander I made last version worked perfectly.

Took me 5 tries to get it to download completely. It kept quitting halfway for some reason. Just keep trying, check file sizes between the DL and the webpage, and if they have an md5 hash, use it.
