Thanks anyway, i posted on RO thread an issue I'm having on reentry in Earth atmosphere. When launching an A-4 prebuilt rocket (that i presume comes from Taerobee pack), I'm capable of touching down Earth at nearly 950 m/s without the usual slowing down effects of the thickest parts of the atmosphere.
<Lornuir>
However it *seems* that rockets built using procedural parts behave correctly (drag and g-force effectively destroy my fins and nose cone)

haven't tried an A-4 recently, so I have no experience that might help, sorry :)

!tell Pap|Sleep hey, am I doing something wrong if my craft the GeoStationary Satellite contract (just a single sat) with 3443 units of ComSatBus ends up a 500+ ton monster? :P

500kg makes sense, not 500 tons, that's not even possible

no lol

I mean the entire rocket :)

No hydrolox?
<Hypergolic_Skunk>
not yet. using the LR105 for the second stage, but I can only get about 3.8km/s
<Hypergolic_Skunk>
third stage are three AJ10 (mid) which get about 4.1km/s
<Pap|SemiAFK>
It doesn't sound crazy out of line, the Molniya-M was 305 tons

ah. good :))

I've fallen in love with PEG guidance, btw

I am going with Titan as the primary launch vehicle in this career

Someone posted: "Maybe i just havent used it for a while, but why has mechjeb suddenly become the most useless thing ever, more specifically in regards to rendezvous autopilot? Got a 12 m/s burn in 2 hours, better max out the thrust to 15gs and burn all my fuel immediatly instead"
<SlainteMaith>
I took SEVERE umbrage at 'most useless thing ever.'

'Michael Davidson Maybe because it's a work in progress and has been for years now? I find it's actually become FAR more useful with the new ascent guidance options. If you find any particular aspect of it useless, you're more than welcome to contribute to the code to fix it."

Me: Yes, I did sort of mean to be a dick about "if you have a complaint, please program it better..." I'm not a coder myself, but if I have a gripe about any particular addon, I try to explain as best I can the issue I'm having, try to repeat it, then post useful information to the addon makers so they can attempt to correct it. I don't say things like, "'x' addon is the most useless thing ever." That said and out of the way: What specificall
<SlainteMaith>
Make sure you have a very close relative inclination, and then, if you're looking for low delta V, increase the maximum orbits to rendezvous. If you need to get there quickly, expect to spend a lot of fuel to get there in minimal time. Yes, it -is- possible to launch and rendezvous in one orbit. It takes precision timing--the stuff that Mechjeb is sort of 'iffy' on. It does the best it can for the rockets it's given. The latest MechJeb actual

so if its that, guide them to dev #695 or lamonts
<SlainteMaith>
Somehow I suspect this person isn't using RO.
<SlainteMaith>
But I was too grumpy to ask, if I'm honest.
<Bornholio>
a lot of new RO people added since Manley posted that recent video
<SlainteMaith>
Haven't seen it myself. But I'll even admit that RO is too much for me.
<Bornholio>
can't go back to easy mode
<SlainteMaith>
What I won't do ever is say that ANY addon is 'the most useless thing ever." I know a bit about dev, even if I've always been on the bitchy end of it. I know how to write up a bug in such a way that a programmer can fix it. Apart from that, I want my team to succeed.
<SlainteMaith>
So I got a little bit annoyed.

As I consider you all 'my team.' *Beams Proudly*

Exactly so. I only tend to get annoyed at KSP lately because I see a fault in my own designs.

SlainteMaith: MechJeb is very “kerballed-up”
<lamont>
and the issue there is that its often difficult problems that people are trying to tune and tweak for their particular bugs and don’t recognize what they’re doing to other behavior

so there’s a lot of patching which pushes and pulls bugs around the codebase
