This is for the career mission that unlocks the DSC launch pad.

Just press start and it will do almost everything, after your parachute deploys use RCS thrusters in translation mode to fine tune your landing.

    used this as of August 2024, only tweaks i needed to do to achieve mission success was lower monopropellant tank fuel amount to 75% and initiate AG1 (vizzy abort) after the drogue chutes activated. took a couple tries to get it working, so if you don't get it on first try, try redoing a couple times from the start (i got a couple different results that way ranging from a sucessful drop right over drone ship to overshooting by 10km)

    @WiIl2006 I just tried it to see if maybe an update ruined it, here is my result: https://i.imgur.com/WzZZTN3.png don't touch anything (not even the time warp) until the first parachutes deploy (about 10km over the target), then enable translation mode and use WASD to guide it towards the drone pad.

    @WiIl2006 Use RCS in translation mode after deploying the parachutes like the description says

    I don't know if i'm being stupid but it seems to be landing way off. Any ideas?

    @thecosmologicaI once the parachutes deploy, enable translation mode and then use your keyboard arrows to direct it using RCS. RCS will push it very slowly so its great for fine tuning. Translation mode needs to be on for it to work

    Works well but can you explain how to land exactly on the pad using rcs
