Auto Credit Based on NEOSTAR's Echo updated code

As with all my Echo-7 rockets, these were meant to be released like 2-3 weeks ago. But anyways, here it is!

BEFORE YOU DOWNLOAD PLEASE READ

I would like to thank these three people for contributing to my program.

@GSGoldenShadow Big thanks for the impact predictor

@NeoStarAerospace HUGE thanks for building the skeleton of the program, improving it AND adding aerodynamic guidance

@Staticalliam7 For the suicide burn when the booster prepares to land

Anyways, big thanks and credit to all of them for major parts of the program.

The program is optional. You don’t have to do it. Press AG6 to start the program, however.

Despite it looking very long and skinny, it works well and is after all, fully automated. For a demonstration craft I threw my python resupply module on it just to demonstrate of capability.

Obviously not true reuse because there isnt a good way for me to make a crane.

Please tell me in the comments what you think. This has a large lack of details but I plan to remaster it or make a new rocket.

Common-ish bug

Sometimes during stage seperation, the program fails to change crafts to the booster. It is no use doing it manually because the program gets confused.

Hope ya enjoy!

    @NeoStarAerospace Yeah no problem. I just gotta find out how to do something like this without any help. Especially with the boost back and guidance.

    @GoldenShadowGS Yeah it’s a bug. I recommend starting a new solar system for it to work correctly.

    Didn't work when I tested it. I pressed 6 to launch and when the booster separated, nothing else happened.
