@andrewgarrison You have no idea how satisfying it was to have a rocket take off and get in to a nice symmetrical orbit with hands off the controls. Thank you all for this addition, it really takes SR2 to a new level. Now, if anyone has some tips on how to use Vizzy to get to a lunar orbit, I'd love to know! :D
@eonn44 @retnuh973 Thanks so much for the replies, I watched a lot of Scott's videos, and even though I never played KSP before, a lot of the same stuff applies here. After getting a better understanding of the procedure, and learning how the burn gizmo works, I was able to try again and dock the first time pretty easily! The game still didn't give me a completed level but I know I did it, haha. Thanks again, I feel like I am getting the hang of it now. I am going to go back and do some of the missions over again and instead of guessing I should be able to do it a little more precisely.
Update- I managed to dock with the satellite, I ran out of RCS but still managed to get lucky and use quick bursts of the pixie. Even though I docked successfully it still didn't give me a mission complete. oh well! I'd still like some pointers though on how to navigate and plan flights better! :)
