Kerbal Space Program - Mining the Mun Part 2

[@redjeik]

Subbed.Loving this series, really has been helping me out with he space stations and what not. THANK YOU, CONTINUE MAKING THESE!

[@josetheze6984]

All the tips about increasing efficiency are extremely helpful. Can't wait for next video!!! :)

[@Orb8Ter]

Landing on the Mun next episode, perhaps I can learn the most efficient way to land ;)

[@SayHiToSebas]

Dude your super good at KSP and im not sure why you dont have a TON of subscribers, hust keep on going, like you allways have for a long time and make sure you have fun while your doing it!!

[@Orb8Ter]

Cheers dude, I am having fun :D just wish I had more time with this game.

[@theepicmaxgod9648]

Munmoore. The moon gods are certainly smiling upon you.

[@TheNecropolis20]

11:00 to 11:05 is my favorite part She (Meridith Kerman) does not look happy i dont think she wants to be here (Mun space station) however Garagan is staring off into space like every other male Kerbal.

[@mishka3876]

Thank you for these videos they are awesome when i can not play burnt out my graphics card... stupid singularity. I am looking forward to the next episode.

[@Orb8Ter]

Dam singularity! I think my graphics card is on the way out every now and again my screen would just blank for a second I'm sure it's all that KSP

[@meme_sause7438]

Thank you so much for the tutorial, when I launched this to the moon i was afraid of no having enough fuel so I made a leech fuel, it goes into orbit with the desired shuttle, having extra fuel grabbing it with the advanced grabbing unit and then re fuels it, you should try it with you space crafts. :D

[@kerrikwolf4695]

Nice. I'm learning a lot from you so I can go forth and make my own Kerbal mistakes. Hopefully it won't involve too many Kerbals dying....

[@Orb8Ter]

Their sacrifice in the pursuit of advancing your space program is a worthy cause :D Making mistakes is the best part of ksp, they started off as frustrating to me but now the only frustrating thing is if I have to fix something on my rocket it will be on my mind all day in work untill I get home and can fix it :D

[@kerrikwolf4695]

Cool. I'll definitely keep that in mind while I build a graveyard for my Kerbals.

[@derekdelboytrotter8881]

could you do a tutorial of how to get to laythe if possible?

[@XpertPilotFSX]

How about Kerbal Space Program - Moon edition?

[@K162KingPin]

You don't need sepetrons if you put your decouplers closer to the top of the tanks. I played with them a little but never use them anymore. Putting your decouplers at the top of the tank kicks the top out better. Since the bottom of the tanks never hit anything as they are much lower on the rocket its less of an issue.

[@Orb8Ter]

+K162KingPin Thanks for the tip, but you have to admit they cool firing while decoupling the boosters ;)

[@tubecraft5343]

That was an overpowered SLS to lift the DST into orbit.

[@bradsswinton]

Well done orbit ty for ur help.

[@AviationFreak1]

How do you tilt parts?

[@Orb8Ter]

AviationFreak#1 In the VAB hold down shift then use the WASD keys to rotate.

[@AviationFreak1]

ok thanks

[@doneadead]

Keep this up man, i love it! :D

[@GRAFFDEMON]

I suck alot at this game because I suppose I don't go into alot of technical detail. I can manage simple orbits but alot of the jargon and calculation is kind've lost on me. Until I get there though it's nice to see somebody else accomplish these cool things.

[@Orb8Ter]

+Motör Punx Some of the best players don't even use the tools or calculations but they learnt from just playing and getting a feel for the game, when I started playing and tried to encounter another craft it took me two days to get it right there was a lot of rage quitting there ;)

[@austinsheffield5158]

Start out with mechjeb. It has autopilot that gets you in orbit, rendezvous, docking, and lands on the moon. Works for me but just turn your antivirus off while using it but it’s 100% safe. Hope this helps

[@TheNecropolis20]

I built the scanning probe i cant get it into polar orbit how long does it take for you to get the probe to the mun? when i think i get a good trajectory to the moon of kerbin and it flys right past the moon when i fast forward time. i fast forward cause it takes forever and thats why im asking here how long does it take in real time to get the scanning probe to the mun?

[@mikab2079]

I was bad at it to you just need to get a feeling for everything thats how i got my friends finally to the mun

[@Immortalcheese]

Can you do a quick video on the changes in 1.0.4 and how it affects reentry/exit or dissipating heat while in space? I've been away from KSP for the past week (exams....) and I want to get back into it being pretty on top of things Thanks for the great videos :)

[@Orb8Ter]

Immortalcheese Just created a video not much has changed but it does look like heating may be a thing, Video will probably be up some time tomorrow 'sign' takes so long to render.

[@jwenting]

Immortalcheese main difference in 1.04 is that your reentry needs to be more shallow than before. Heating has become a bit less brutal overall, heat seems to spread better around the craft (at least with stock parts, mods will need to be updated to use the new heating system, but if you're adventurous you can do that yourself by fiddling with the cfg files using the stock cfgs as an example).

[@camilogarrido6899]

Great video!

[@stavc7007]

What mods do you have installed

[@JMarcotte1]

You audio has a weird crackling. Didn't notice it in your other videos.

[@dimkon98]

What mods are you using? btw great videos mate i leve em! keep up the good work!

[@Orb8Ter]

+dimkon98 Mods I use are: Ambient light adjustment Asteroidday Enviromental enhacment Dmagicorbital science HullcamVDS Kerbal attachment system Kerbal invetory system Hyperedit Mechjeb Docking Port Alignment Indicator Scansat Kerbal alarmclock Toolbar I think that is the current mods i use I have just added the clouds to the game from the enviromental enhancments mod

[@dimkon98]

+Orb8Ter Great thanks a lot man! you are great keep on making them awsome videos!

[@Xenro66]

If you're very desperate for dV, ditch your farings at 35km, that's the point at which the dV lost through mass is greater than the dV loss through drag.. Dunno why I said that xD Congrats on 500+ subs man ;)

[@SayHiToSebas]

Jordan O'C Yea Gratz!

[@Orb8Ter]

Thanks will try ditching the fairings at 35k always worried it would flip the rocket and it's cool to watch the fairing slowly separate in a uniform pattern in space B). 500 subs WOW it's happens so quickly I will have to do something but very busy at the moment but hopefully soon ;-)

[@Xenro66]

Orb8Ter As long as you have some fins at the very bottom of your rocket, you won't spin out, as far as I'm aware. But yeah, they looks pretty cool in space, only wish they were 2-6 part farings, not loads of tiny pieces. Indeed haha, I can't even imagine what you'll do hahaha.

[@BadJ63]

you could call the station I.M.B.U.S (International Mun Base Usage System)

[@colincampbell3679]

You call the series " Mun for the Money " : P

[@svfox]

I built an all in 1 rocket. It was 1000 ft tall and when it went on the launch pad it fell over.

[@Orb8Ter]

+Steven Fox Lol yes then large rocket conundrum I always have this problem when first building but I found its easier to add rockets on the sides 😎

[@zackzednick4176]

Wayy to late but Mining Unexplored Nodes M.U.N!

[@gopi6162]

hey, bit of a random question but where are you from? lol

[@DustySquitoNM]

I believe he said he was Welsh on one of his earlier videos.

[@catplaysi3509]

Hmm this intro MUNSIC is like DanTDM's old lab MUNSIC!!

[@theclockmaker633]

well the file doesnt exist anymore

[@whiplash7400]

just so you know. mun is pronounced moon, the same way we pronounce our own moon on earth

[@mineeagle2651]

Its not actually

[@gopi6162]

hey, bit of a random question but where are you from? lol

[@Orb8Ter]

+Gopi I am from south Wales in the UK nope not random, just as curious as an engineer ;)

[@literate-aside]

Love wales. Half my in-laws are from there; we go up to Cardiff Bay, Cwmbran, Beacons etc quite often. Can’t wait to camp there this year. Just working through your old vids to help with my very own Space Station, top stuff 👍
