Galley 333 v2

An unexceptional rocket (takes a 333kg payload to low orbit) showcasing a general script for highly efficient launches. It handles staging, a smooth gravity turn, throttle control to reduce excessive drag losses, maintaining heading for minimum inclination, and raising the periapsis into a circular orbit, as well as telling the player what it is currently doing. It is expected to work for most well balanced rockets; a few parameters are highlighted and explained in the code to allow additional tweaking for maximum performance.

This updated version will work better for rockets with a wider range of TWR profiles. It also calculates exact burn times and takes into account how much the apoapsis drifts while circularising in order to get the most circular orbit possible. Final eccentricity is typically <0.01.

This example rocket achieves a circular orbit of 90km using ~4.6km/s dV with this script.
