Lol i like it 😂

[@ZorillaMyrid181]

One of these times, Scott himself is going to comment on your videos. Mark my words...

[@diamondmcgaming2866]

Yes

[@smitz001]

These tutorials are amazing! I’m getting really comfortable with rendezvous and docking! Thanks!

[@kyrin408]

This is an amazing tutorial. I mean it took me 3 and a half hours to get the first two modules down (core and electric) but without your video and wouldn't have ever happened, you just earned yourself a loyal subscriber. Another plus side of this is i definitely understand the maneuver nodes better lol. 10/10

[@powrfulnonsense]

I had almost given up on trying to accomplish this until I came across your tutorials. Took a few hours but I've now had my first successful orbital rendezvous and docking. Thank you so much for the helpful series.

[@MathijsGroothuis]

Lol I played career for more than a year, but you finally showed me the function of the next orbit manoeuver node

[@SpikeScott]

My ape brain couldn't figure out why the SAS controls were backwards until I rotated my module, EVERY TIME XD. Thanks for the step by step man it really helps!

[@nathanielpritkin2550]

I've been a big fan for a while now, I just wanted to thank you for continuing to post videos every other day. I'm sure you'll be able to get millions of subs it's just a matter of when it'll happen.

[@marcshaman7984]

I am really finding your vids useful, watched them all! Nice to have someone with some personality doing Kerbal. Keep pushing for those subs they will always come to quality.

[@boyan7432]

speakin of dockings, it is really REALLY hard to dock if its the first time. it will take many attempts

[@m3nj051]

The only problem that I had with docking the first time was that I didn't know how to move everything fowards, backwards, left, right, up or down with rcs

[@ManofCulture]

Its was hard at first but easy after that

[@adammilan6434]

Yeah i tried for an hour before just watching the video.. now its a breeze

[@scarletking4024]

Same before 1.10 i was good at docking but now i'm 🗑 at docking

[@ryanbeck4947]

Me: Watches this video Also me: You know, I’m something of a NASA engineer myself

[@f3p]

I built an ares 1 rocket to bring crew and supplies to a station I'm planning to build. It will be my first station. Thanks for the tutorial, this game can be pretty hard to learn at times.

[@kol6547]

This is amazing! I have try'ed to make a satellite before and I did get it to orbit but it's to fast I have a spaceship orbiting kerblin it's going to fast and the best part I have two space craft in orbit with the sun. The only successful ship was the ship that launched my satellite which I called Orbiter 1 and thankfully that's what I'm going to use for this.

[@XavierBetoN]

I've found "grandparent part" the most useful for replacing regular struts. The others are better for orbital construction.

[@EagleMitch]

Very good tutorial! I watched this a few times and it explains better that Scott's video.

[@ComradePhoenix]

Of course, the obvious solution to having a weird center of mass is to build symmetrically.

[@fry6090]

Ay bro this was really cool and helpful for when I make more space stations! Thanks a lot

[@scottwilliams846]

There's a way around having to use the kerbal redux mod. Simply make sure the center of mass is in the center of the ship. Make it line up with the center of thrust when you attach the orbital maneuvering stage.

[@m3nj051]

Hey, thanks for the tutorial, you just got a new subscriber and 👍

[@xytretsm4470]

You need like 1 million like for this not 1k like keep up the good work buddy I love your kerbal videos

[@mynllama5173]

THANKS YOU! You make this game look so easy!

[@wxb200]

I was having a lot of difficulty docking to the Core Module. I couldn't figure out why it wouldnt dock until I got a closer look. All 4 Docking Adapters were on backwards. Once I redesigned it, piece of cake...

[@ThermonuclearICBM]

note: unless you hate yourself, use mechjeb to do most of the annoying bits for you. If you want you can get it to do nearly all of it for you.

[@turtsippin1875]

I love your channel

[@thetreeboy.]

I don't have the autostrut button, is it a mod? I usually play sandbox, maybe that's what it is.

[@Neurotripsicks]

Still cant rendezvous properly. Help!

[@ashyslashy7243]

I was thinking about what you said about space stations. Building rockets with enough fuel to break escape velocity on earth costs a ton of money. But if we made a moon base and built rockets from there. We could send massive ships to Mars or even other neighbors for cheaper too. That's my theory tho.

[@ldohlj1]

You know you have played too much KSP when you try to fast forward a youtube video by pressing the ">" button.

[@aniketsrivastava1870]

That's to deep x5

[@benurs]

Is this the second part to the first part published 2 years ago or so? :-)

[@Orb8Ter]

benurs lol no this is the second part to the new space station tutorial people were complaining about things like rocket flipping in the old ones so updated the tutorial as the game has been updated over the years 😉

[@benurs]

hehe, that was my guess. I was watching the old part 1 then suddenly this one came in, I was surprised on the difference of number of view from one to the other. Maybe you could rename or clarify in the description? Thanks and good work! BTW, I'll watch the old ones first, then these ones :-)

[@fordealisbad8569]

@ Maybe you wanna do a deep space with SSTO and you don't have enough fuel to do its,refuel at the station is really useful

[@patrickball3185]

What is autostrut? I'm not seeing this option

[@johnqueen9798]

I wish I could do this on my ps4 console but no mods but it does have auto strut. I also want to make a fuel refuel station.

[@175firefighter]

how are you quickly switching between people and/or vessels? I keep having to go back to the space tracking center to do it.

[@sirguylittle]

[ and ] allows you to switch if they are within 2.3 km of each other. If further you can do it from map view by clicking on the vessel you wish to switch to.

Wow you REALLY need to think outside the box with how you use modules. I was trying to make a refueling satellite and it was all wrong. THIS is way better and i would have never thought of it. Now i just need more practice in using RSC. how youtubers make it look so easy makes my blood boil>_>

[@literate-aside]

I’d have called this “The Mushroom Tip” 🤣

[@treyjohnston5597]

When I attack modules the stations orbit gets mest up. Should I use RCS?

[@matteochiesurin2365]

Yes, highly suggest so. Although it’s possible to do it without them but it’s way harder and more dangerous :p

[@Fred_the_1996]

I always overshoot by a few dozen meters, does anyone have any advice?

[@dominic5386]

Capitão Explosão use your main engine (or rcs) and burn at anti-target if you pass your target, remember that you keep velocity in space, so you do have to accelerate if your speed is too fast away from target.

[@Fred_the_1996]

@@dominic5386 yeah, I usually try that, but the clamp port magnets push the ships away instead of pulling them :/

[@dominic5386]

Capitão Explosão you may of accidentally put your docking ports on backwards, use the engineer notes or whatever it’s called in vehicle assembly to check, the engineer should tell you if the docking ports are backwards.

Version name?

[@joshuasmith4018]

Question that hopefully someone will still see this late after posting.. I’ve just discovered and started playing this game. Only got a few hours in so far. My question is, does a space station actually contribute anything to the campaign? (Is it “functional”?) I have the same question for bases on moons and planets. Is there a legitimate use for them? Thanks in advance

[@xavier1964]

Space stations can be used to farm science, but their main use of for refueling. For instance, I might launch a craft towards Minmus with empty tanks to save weight. Then I dock with the space station to refuel then go to Minmus. Bases are much more useful however because they can be used to mine ore to turn into fuel.

Does he know he doesn't have to de-orbit?

[@fordealisbad8569]

Yes but it keeps the orbit clean

[@atrias144]

@@fordealisbad8569 dude, this was said 2 years ago and the entire reason I said it is because kerbal self-cleans abandoned objects. Not instantly, but shortly thereafter or on reload. That means the only rational reason to de-orbit is for roleplay, which is absolutely fine if so, but it wasn't clear to me the person in the video knew this.

[@darkwitnesslxx]

Kerbal only declutters if you have the settings that way. Most people play this game on hard mode. Also, if it has a probe core, which his does, it's not considered junk, but another ship.

[@atrias144]

@@darkwitnesslxx I haven't played in 3 years but I'm pretty sure you can manually abandon things even if they have a probe core. All abandoned objects self-clean either after a period of time, or after reloading the save file. Are you saying that that isn't the case, or are you saying he's playing on hard mode, or something else?
