This mission sees the Pheonix launch an 85 ton payload to between 100 and 120km orbit. A single 3 degree gravity turn at 30m/s is enough to achieve orbit, with booster separation at 30km, and after payload deploy the core stage will land in the general vacinity of the launchpad with a parachute assisted final descent.
The entire mission is automated, including camera angle, throttle down for maxQ, booster seperation, orbit insertion burn, reentry burn, slowdown burn, and landing.

 Any time :) . Look at my video "the Luna job automated" just skip to finalising the orbit or the more sensitive moment of extending the apogee to 36,000 km without over shooting.

        8,523 crowxe5.8 years agoneat program. here's a trick for approaching required values like perigee to equal apogee . set throttle to {2% + (apogee-perigee)/apogee} when the 2 values almost equal it will be (x-x)/x or added thrust equal zero besides the 2% you put yourself , this prevents overshooting required values due to game lag or engines specs

@Lkninml thanks, that is my goal but I'm still learning how to do all the parts of the mission. Vizi does not five us location data so i don't know how to automate docking... Yet
