nope forget this, when i try to get it in orbit i usually forget it up, im using KW rocketry

How to solve your problem: Slap more ASAS modules upon it until wibbly wobbly-ness is gone.

I'm in love with this Multi-Function Display mod. I can achieve basically anything without even opening the map or going into third person. Very immersive. I got this SSTO shuttle into a 120km circular orbit with just the monitors as a test. Now I put cargo in it and i'm going up to release it.

Another cool thing is when I screenshot the game, not only does it screenshot it but it screenshots the individual monitors as their own separate pictures too.

Orbit Viewer



And my favorite, the camera inside the cargo hold


messes how do i get a fuel station into orbit

Might I see what it looks like?

I don't build fuel stations solely because I either 1) try to maintain enough fuel to get around Kerbin/Mun/Minmus/re-entry and 2) I use fuel-efficient ion engines and inductive thrusters for longer journeys.

I would start by getting the main core of the station into a 120km orbit. Attachs docking nodes where needed. Then i'd fly very large individual tanks (probably like 4, 2 on each side of the station) up with RCS to a 100km orbit. Alter it until you rendezvous and then dock the tank. Ta da, fuel station.

If you are trying to get this one big, heavy structure into orbit as one piece, that's most likely the problem.

Its not going to be huge, its only 1 orange tank


wtf this game keeps breaking, my engine wont turn on and i cant turn on/off SAS
EDIT: i actually ran out of power...

Basically this

I took your fuel tank and did this to it:



then put lots of SRB's on it



I almost got orbit with this, it needs just a bit more fuel and or boosters. I would keep trying but I have to go now. I'd work off of this though, it's very stable.

Messes what mod are those liquid fuel boosters from

they look amazing

everyone needs KW rocketry in their hearts.


everytime i use a KW rocketry subassembly it breaks

please be more specific or include images. we're not wizards.

Has anyone taken the time and set up a multiplayer server?
