When did fuel cells switch over to monopropellant? Also when did turning on the cabin lights start taking electric charge? I guess my komrades will have to learn to traverse the void using natural light heh.

God I miss the old USI drone port thing that let you use LFO to magically toss resources around in the same SOI, made refueling so less tedious. Is there anything like it nowadays? Like I can use KSTS to refuel stuff in kerbin SOI but it's useless if I wanna bring stuff from orbit back down.

Pood has a SVE config for Outer Planets, but it's 1.22 only at the moment - I'm holding out hope that since Galileo88 has taken up maintenance on OP, Pood will show up and make it prettier again! I just uninstalled a New Horizons and SVE for OP and AVP, as New Horizons was overwhelming - started a new save (I didn't get very far in New Horizons) and will post screenshots when I have everything working correctly. So far, Kerbin looks impressive! Checking back - everything looks fantastic. Definitely worth checking out instead of SVE   EDIT: This last one isn't AVP, but it shows off the New Horizons planet mod pretty well!

How much Delta v do I need to land a mechassault on Duna?

Delta-v requirements do not change from craft to craft, except for TWR and aerodynamic drag differences.

Corky Romanovsky posted:Delta-v requirements do not change from craft to craft, except for TWR and aerodynamic drag differences.  But in this case it also depends on if the mech is deployed from orbit from a drop pod or if the dropship itself lands and deploys the mechs at or near ground level. You can save around 1000 dV according to the charts for Duna landing, considering aerobreaking savings. I'd assume a near ground level deployment would use as much or more dV than a flat landing depending on the skill of the dropship pilot. Pods are going to be the cheapest dV option as you don't need to push the dropship back up-hill. You are looking at about 5000dv from Kerbin to Duna orbit with pods. From there you can carry on to your primary objective. May your systems be always nominal.

I wonder why they never made the planetary orbits dynamic. Presumably the dv needed to appreciably change a planetary orbit would mean you'd never gently caress it up accidentally, but planetary relocation is exactly the kind of ridiculous crap you want to see people pull off in KSP

Kerbal Engineer is the big must-have that will make your life a lot easier once you've spent a little bit time with tutorials to understand what numbers you want to pay attention to. Beyond that, I'd play around with the base game to get a feel for what you'd like to change first. KER is about exposing a ton of essential flight and vehicle characteristics that take a ton of the trial and error out of designing (and flying) rockets that work. (Kerbal Engineer Redux is the full name for recent versions) Of note, KER is strictly about transparency. It gives you a bunch of information without making any gameplay changes.
