I honestly cannot dock I’ve been to the moon I’ve orbited all planets in the solar system I’ve built a re usable spacecraft but I just can’t dock, no matter what I do the transfer window keeps moving away from me I hate it I’ve been stuck for months
@@pastaya we are not the same lmfao😂😂😂 oh and I can dock now by the way my successful attempt was 2 months from today on December 21, I was so happy, and I did it on my own no stupid tutorials
I have been trying to dock a second module to the beginning of a space station and I almost did it but the space station crashed into the second module before I could dock them 😂. This video have helped a lot thanks 🙏
I love how the rocket just went like *IM GONNA CRASH INTO YOU* _oh wait nevermind i missed_ and the crew in the other rocket was like _HOLY CRAP THAT WAS SUPER CLOSE WE ALMOST DIED!!_
its a good method but the easiest way is to get in a lower orbit than the thing you want to dock with click navigate to. time warp until it it shows your craft is over the rendezvous it will tell you the speed then burn until the speed is 0.0. then time warp until your over top of the thing you want to dock with. burn till the orbit is similar then use rcs until your right next to the thing you want to dock with then dock.
Its not a bug, you’re in a vacuum, there is no air resistance other than stop you so if you want to stop and you stop pressing the button, the rcs has to fire in the opposite direction to stop the aircraft
I actually got this first try without any tutorials like this when I was recreating the Apollo 11 spacecraft where I have to dock to the command module bc I left the moon already. Oh and don’t do this when there are like a bunch of satellites because you have to avoid them just to dock to one of the space stations or you might get confused where it is.
I remember trying to do this for the first time, but I forgot to actually make an orbit first. So the other module i was trying to dock with came in at like mach 2 and absolutely INCINERATED my rocket lol
This really helped me a lot to be honest! Idk if it's just me but it's so hard to dock! I recommend the steps here for you to try if you want to build a space station in spaceflight simulator!🎉
Awesome video, finally docked at my spacecraft, I would like to mention that you stated the rcs thrusters automatically fire even when you don’t touch it. This is done on purpose to automatically stabilise the spacecraft
On pc to make it easier download smart sas mod once ur going near the station/rocket and did the navigation thing to the station/rocket click target in smart sas and then go to station/rocket then do the same thing
I get what you mean, but when he burned towards it it was radial out, and it corrected his orbit in a way that he’d eventually get to the altitude of the other spacecraft. You could also see after that he went prograde to fix his orbit so he doesn’t fall. So that does work
Thanks! I wanted to dock my command module and lunar module on the moon from Saturn V but i kept messing up and i followed this tutorial Thanks for the video!
i was going to see this video, but i forget about it and i learned to dock by miself, but i tough u had to wait till the 2 rockets are close to start the engine, but now i know that it can be even when its a little far! thx! this will help me to make my space base easier! :D
The satellite has to be behind a few degrees. I know that from straight moon flights too, where I launch rockets straight upwards when the moon is at 10:00 position. Is there a way to precisely navigate this?
Bro, one problem. It changes Orbit to Earth Surface, what if am late and i just collide to earth. Does orbit change if i try to fly away or it is good to go away
i build an extrem big space Station where i can now fuel my rocket helps when you wanna fly to a Planet with big distans but you cant lift up becuse you got to much fuel so you empty the tanks that you dont need to get there and then at the space Stations you fuel your System and you can fly (tipp get some lil system to navigate)
I just need to get into orbit lower than the spacecraft im going to Dock then once im aligned with the spacecraft i fire the engine toward the space craft this is an easy way
Rendezvous is when two objects or people meet up. In a video game when you hear them say “Meet me at the rendezvous coordinates.” It means meet me at these coordinates so we can link up together. Just another word really for coming togetherz
