Mushroom man:

Bump.

I did it! I finally got to the Mun!

But sadly I didn't have enough fuel to make it off. So I dropped Jeb off at the apoapsis in the hopes he could jet pack back.

It didn't work.

The capsule then bounced about halfway across the Mun until eventually coming to a stop on it's side.

I think that the Dragon capsule is a little over powered. I think I'll lower the impact tolerance.

HellHound:

In the part parameters what does "atmospheric curve" mean?
For my modified ion engine:

--- Code: --- PROPELLANT
{
name = ElectricCharge
        ratio = 1.5
}
PROPELLANT
{
name = XenonGas
ratio = 0.1
}
atmosphereCurve
  {
    key = 0 4200
  }


--- End code ---
Anybody care to explain?

Gojira:

That means the specific impulse that the thing has.

It has no Isp in the atmosphere.
It has to have at least 1 second of Isp to work.
