I think it has something to do with the tides, LSP.

I either:

1. Rendezvous directly from launch (if orbiting around equator of Kerbin)
2. Get into correct inclination with correct longitude of ascending node. Get in orbit that is higher or lower than object. Hohmann transfer and adjust as would do with moon or planet. Once near closest approach, zero relative velocity.

I love how this makes perfect sense to proficient dockers, but is pure gibberish to anybody having problem docking that has never flown a rocket :)
Actually, I know a couple of people who play KSP, but they have only ever gone anywhere by burning straight up from the launchpad and getting and intercept. Everything they design is built for the sole purpose of having a load of delta-v applicable forwards.

Agree, plus that's about the LAST thing *I* want to see from this kind of game - author spending valuable development time on useless graphics.

That's great, especially since it's SSTO with those new engines.

They're nearly as bad as badgers. Build a couple of anti-buzzard SAM sites marksdwarf towers and your fortress will look like Baghdad in 2003 from all the aerial bolt spam. You waste a lot of ammo and everything is covered in unslightly exploded buzzard bits and broken bolts.

So those are the fabled rapier engines I've heard about?

Yes there the rapier engines, and four of them makes it really thirsty, 20 units a minute  is a lot for Jet Fuel tanks.
If you want to try a  SSTO with it then ride the Ram Air Intake up as high as you can then switch engine mode (action group 1 i think).

Once you hit vacuum  you will be forced to use the Reaction Wheels to steer, RCS for take off in on the list.

Edit: RCS thrusters ain't working so im trying it with Rockomax 24-77.

Get on my level.

Artificial gravity ring, somehow managed to get this into space. Then I put a rover in it. Then I made the ring spin with SAS. Then I experienced Munar gravity. THEN I DROVE TO EXPERIENCE KERBIN GRAVITY. IN SPACE.

Yes, the accelerometer works.
Somebody made this.

Took him about 4 hours and 50 tries to get it into orbit.

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

NovaSilesko made a cool mod for those who desire a new universe to play around in.

And if you want random craziness for your Kerbol system, Random Solar System may be for you. So many good planet mods these days!

Ooh, that one looks very nice. Such a shame that I probably can't use it.

Actually, you may find it runs better than stock, due to some optimization of the lighting code NovaSilesko did.
