When I'm on a perfectly vertical ascent, or already in orbit, I can jettison my first stage rockets and keep flying pretty.

If I so much as look at the D key on my keyboard during a launch, the rocket spins violently out of control and goes careening into a mountain. The "how to get into orbit" guide suggests tilting the rocket 10 degrees east once you reach 100 m/s, performing a steady gravity turn. For instance, it says to hold a steady 300 m/s until 10km, then go full-throttle until you run out of fuel. There are three main ways that things fail horribly for me:ĭespite following the guides and tutorials precisely and picking my parts according to the specifications, it seems like my rockets are somehow less powerful than theirs. I've read about 20 tutorials on KSP rocket design and orbital mechanics and even tried following the step-by-step guide to get into orbit but it never works for me. To this end, I've been trying to practice gravity turning and burning less fuel in the lower atmosphere to reduce drag forces so that I can get into a stable orbit around Kerbin with far less effort - but things chronically go wrong. It's also extremely risky on the return trip to Kerbin since I usually can't afford the additional rocket for a controlled descent and instead rely on heat shields and prayer to make it back into the atmosphere, losing out on hours of work when I revert my flight upon catastrophic failure. This is a horribly expensive, heavy, and inefficient way to just do a flyby, and it has made getting into orbit around the moon almost impossible.

He recorded 43 episodes, with an additional five episodes playing the DLC Kerbal Space Program Career between February and March 2016.Historically I've been using a LOT of rockets and a LOT of fuel in order to achieve successful flights - burning 6-8 BACC "Thumper" Solid Fuel Boosters to lift a payload of 2-4 FL-T800 Fuel Tanks so I can get into a stable orbit, then I burn an entire FL-T800 Fuel Tank just to do a flyby of the moon. The series featured Jacksepticeye blowing up rockets, breaking speeds and sending Kerbals to the Moon and Sun.

Players need to keep an eye on fuel, thrust and stability to keep their aircraft running smoothly, otherwise they risk explosions. Kerbal Space Program lets players create and build their own rockets in order to allow humanoids known as 'Kerbals' to launch into space.
