What should i improve BEFORE another Mars mission?

[Flying Pilot]

Will try building Space station on Mars Orbit..but want to improve something before it. What should it be?

 

[Horus Lupercal]

Building. Always building. If you have to ask, then the answer is building.

I don't get the obsession with recovery dude (well, I do). Get good at building first, recovering your rockets should be a distant second.

Recoverys for example when i will do base on Mars and will use only one rocket so i Can send it to station and than back

 

[Horus Lupercal]

Yeah, I know what you want to do. I'm saying you need to get better at building first. Do you have ground equipment capable of moving and resetting landed boosters?

No

Then how are you intending on using only one rocket, if you have no method of re-fuelling it and placing a new payload on top...?

I already said it like a milion times that im just practising it when i get the base done on Mars i will do it there because i will send more rocket from Mars to other planets (without expansion) and will buy the expansion and will send than on planets like Jupiter and more...?

Heya ofc building la

Why do you need to practice now instead of later? Sounds like trying to become really good at landing is slowing down your SFS career.

The alternative is getting better at building and make big rockets and cool stations.

Right, I'm gonna repeat myself for the children that REEEE before they think.

1. I don't know about a million times. You have less than 100 messages.
2. I know what you want to do. I'm trying to work out how you are going to do it. It doesn't matter if you intend on doing it on Mars, the Moon or your back garden, your problem is still the same. You don't have an method of re-using your recovered rockets. Until that changes, there is no point recovering them.

Listen, i know you have a spaceX fanboy in there and thus you have to do everything how SpaceX is doing things (hence the Mars destination, the double landing attempts, the Starshit and falcon type rockets). But before Elon tried landing boosters, he had the infrastructure in place to service returned boosters. People tend to forget this.

You may not like what I have to say, because it's not the answer you wanted. You want people to say 'keep practicing your landings'. Unfortunately you asked my opinion, and my opinion is you need to get good at building. Much better at it. And then get even better. Once you're pretty good, you won't need to ask us what you need to improve on, cos you'll know and you'll be able to create solutions to your own questions.
When that day comes, then try landing all the boosters you want, because you'll be able to do something with them once they're on the ground.

Starshit

Love-able word in Horus Lupercal's yeet message for fan bois

That and he made a post where he wondered if anyone else had accidentally called it Starshit rather than Starship...

I'm pretty sure there is some bois done that thing too

Erm, that was kinda the...point...of his...post...?

Yea

I Can be "prepared" for it forward so it will be easier for me

 

[Flying Pilot]

I didnt said that i wonder if someone else did that. You said it

 

[Horus Lupercal]

So this isn't you...?

Flying Pilot

 

[Pink]

You will learn how to land faster if you get better at building and "practice" making big rockets and cool space stations.

 

[Flying Pilot]

I feel like you have list in your own sentences.
You said that i was wondering if someone have "starsh!t" in their quicksaves, but i wasnt wondering about it if someone have starsh!t in their quicksaves. I just did profile post about it. And by that profile post i meant that my autocorrect is placing random words in there..
I dont want to be rude or something but yall know that i Can do whatever in my World in that game. And Also how to the ever living Falcon would you move something big as idk what when i dont have that docking thing and one little moving thing wouldnt Even move it by a milimeter.

Yea i got you i know what you mean. Im actually working on one station and i Can say that its hecca hard to Dock. (At least for me)

Yes. But if you read what I am actually saying to Mars, he thinks I'm calling starship Starshit. The reason I worded it as so is because you did. Not because I think Starship is particularly shit.

I dont want to be rude or something but yall know that i Can do whatever in my World in that game.

Which is fine, because you can.
However.
You asked our opinion, remember?

but want to improve something before it. What should it be?

So I'm not being rude or anything. You asked the group for its opinion. And my opinion is you are not able to complete your objectives with the level of building ability you have regardless of how good you get at landing boosters.

And Also how to the ever living Falcon would you move something big as idk what when i dont have that docking thing and one little moving thing wouldnt Even move it by a milimeter.

Because you're gonna need to solve this problem before you can even think about recycling rockets anywhere.

Hell, that's not even my opinion. That's just a cold objective fact, so you can hate it all you want but it won't change anything.

Infact, since we're still in the thread where you're asking for things you need to improve on, judging by this:

Im actually working on one station and i Can say that its hecca hard to Dock. (At least for me)

I'd suggest pausing the booster landing altogether. Docking is far more important than being able to land boosters. Getting good and confident at encounters and docking is probably the single most important ability in the game to master. That's also not just my opinion, ask absolutely anyone here. If you can't dock then you're essentially constraining yourself to starlink missions until you can.
Hell, not even, because it's not like you can re-use the rockets afterwards.

About docking:
I already did station on Moon, now i am working on one that in gonna be above Earth.
(On the photo is the one on Moon, its mostly on refueling)

Please moderate your tone guys. Is the current discussion really worth an argument?

No, it's not. I can't really get what their problem is.
