![]() * Applied MissionControlRangeMultiplier to unused Mission Control Dish Antennas When I switch to the satellite, the probe on the surface doesn't have a connection to kerbin.* Recompiled RemoteTech 1.9.3 for KSP 1.3.1 Is there an issue where pointing at a planet instead of a satellite only works while the vessel is selected? I have a probe on the surface now pointed at kerbin, and when I select the probe it connects to kerbin and through an omnidirectional antenna to the satellites around the mun. That's a fantastic idea, but now I have a problem. There is another issue though, the moon goes dark for a long time and 8000 power is not nearly enough to keep it running, probably need more like 50000. ![]() Actually, if you use DTS antennas, you can just point them at the mun and back, they'll all connect!Įdit: Nevermind, it was the antennas targeting active craft that were creating the connection, I hadn't pointed anything at the moon yet. Since one side of the moon always points at Kerbin, you can use a DTS-M1 antenna on a lander and point it at Kerbin (The DTS has a really great cone angle!) then put an omni and every sat will connect to mission control through it. I was rather amazed that it worked so well once completed. This was one of the more fulfilling missions I accomplished. Set up subsequent transfer burns from this altitude and use the previously placed satellites as targets. Use the first satellite launch to step up your orbit until you find an insertion orbit that allows a 1.5 hour travel time from burn to apo. (Each satellite wound up about 2 hours behind the target satellite.) For four satellites, you would want to find a mid orbit that would give you a 1.5 hour travel time. Timing the burn for the second and third satellites to coincide with the target satellite crossing the intended apoapsis allowed a fairly accurate placement. I was launching three satellites and used an orbit (iirc, it was ~ 500 km) which would result in reaching the apoapsis 2 hours after the insertion burn. The detail on the target apoapsis includes the time it will reach that point. Then during it flight to the Mun it will lose control until it riches Mun, where it connects to Munar satellites.įor timing single satellite launches into synchronous orbits, I used a Hohmann transfer from a mid orbit point. Before it around Kerbin it controlled by local satellites, so I can adjust it course to Mun. ![]() With such layout I can send to Mun mission with only Omni antenna 2.5 Mm or 5 Mm range. On Mun, because of the Alt 1500, all satellites are connected by omni antennas, so even if the satellite on the dark side of Mun and don't see Kerbin, it has control. And a bunch of smaller satellites with only Omni antenna. One dish is pointed into Kerbin, another into Minmus. One dish is pointed into Kerbin, another into Minmus.Īround Kerbin I have the same 3 satellites, with 2 dishes DTS-M1 and 1 Omnidirectional for 5 Mm. I have 3 satellites around Mun at Alt 1500, with 2 dishes DTS-M1 and 1 Omnidirectional for 5 Mm. I use Omni for local control around "colonized" bodies and dished for connecting my colonials.Īs for my. If you have 2 or 3 satellites on the geostationary orbit with spare dishes targeted to Active vessel and a dish which is targeted onto any of such satellites, then you will have connection almost everywhere and almost all the time in range of your dishes. In "Select target" window for dishes there is a target "Active vessel".
