@Tweedle_Aerospace I probably could also do a landing pad landing, since my Sparrow 2 already lands way past the space center. The boost back always just goes to a certain speed, so the landing is not accurate, although it still goes past the space center with it’s boost back. I do not think fuel would be a problem.
@Tweedle_Aerospace I hope it works out! The only advice I have is to keep changing little things and try again to try to find what is wrong. Sometimes if you change something that you know should make something different happen with the flight, and the flight does not go differently, you know you should be looking somewhere else for the problem. That was how I did my troubleshooting on my Sparrow 1 and 2.
@Tweedle_Aerospace thanks for the response! I will look into that. I also want to keep my first stage around the same size, so I might try to do a drone ship landing, although that is much harder.
@Chtite451SR2 oh :( I will probably keep the name though, since I am not really stealing any names. My Phoenix 1 and 2 went up before that other Phoenix-3
@Tweedle_Aerospace it’s not rcs and gyro that is the problem, it is the fact that when the pitch is constantly changing, the rocket will just hover on a pitch in the middle.
@LostHoosier probably. You can already get in to the planet studio with no keyboard on mobile. I just can not figure out how to do anything yet since it is not done
@Insanity thanks! I want to do a boost back burn before I start the upper stage code. Do you know if the upper stage will wait to use the code until I switch to it if I use a broadcast block?
@Tweedle_Aerospace yeah I had that problem too, but in the times I tried it it still worked so I left it. I also did not expect my code to be used so I did not spend very long optimizing it.
@Tweedle_Aerospace ok- I have a version of the pre-release you made almost done. It is equipped with my program but you can change that if you want- I just did it because for some reason with the settings I have my game on the rocket always blows up at stage separation with your program.

@zzazza @Gozinya I came up with a new theory: following the 1s pattern for the dev notes posts, they missed the 21st and the 01st. The digit in the 10s place of these numbers added together is 2, so now we take the digits in the 10s place of the first 2 post dates, which is 2 and 3. If we add those together we get five, so obviously the update comes out in 5 minutes.
@Gozinya I hope it means October 1st 2020! I’ve been waiting for this update for so long, I understand that it takes a while but I want it so badly! I also agree with @WereOutOfNamesArentWe that however many days extra it takes them to release this, that is how late the update will be, for example, if following the pattern, than right now it would be 4 days late, so it would come out on October 5th.
@MSCSpaceworks It worked! I did not even have to get rid of the game, just take the game states folder out of the SimpleRockets 2 folder so it automatically generated a new one- it must have been stuck in that last flight of mine- by getting rid of that last flight’s file I must have fixed it- I even was able to put the files back after opening the game- nothing at all was lost!
@plane918273645 so will it work if I just copy the entire craft design folder and put it out of the SimpleRockets 2 folder? Are there any other files I need for the crafts? Also will this work for subassemblies too?
Does anyone know if in files I go to SimpleRockets 2 - userdata - craftdesigns and copy the craft files I want to save into a different folder, than delete and reinstall SimpleRockets 2 and copy the files back into the craft design folder, will I have the crafts or do I need to save more files or is it just not possible? Or if I just copy the whole craftdesigns folder?

@MSCSpaceworks thanks! Do you know of any way to save some of the craft files before doing this? I have many crafts that are not posted that I do not want to loose

3.5 years ago@Tweedle_Aerospace sorry I couldn’t. I’m glad to see you are fixing it though! I can’t wait to see the rocket.
3.5 years ago@Chtite451SR2 oh :( I will probably keep the name though, since I am not really stealing any names. My Phoenix 1 and 2 went up before that other Phoenix-3
3.5 years ago@Tweedle_Aerospace then I am sorry, I do not know what is wrong.
3.5 years ago@Tweedle_Aerospace what do you mean zeroed on the craft mass?
3.5 years ago@Tweedle_Aerospace can you post the craft with the vizzy so I can see what is wrong?
3.5 years ago@Tweedle_Aerospace I am not going for an accurate landing, I just want to get rid of lateral speed
3.5 years ago@Tweedle_Aerospace I already have that, but it does not work that well. I am going to try to make it work better
3.5 years ago@Tweedle_Aerospace the problem is I need to constantly change between retrograde and 0 to keep the heading constantly updating to retrograde
3.5 years ago@Tweedle_Aerospace a while loop that says while velocity lateral > 15 lock heading on retrograde, unlock heading, lock pitch 0
3.5 years ago@Tweedle_Aerospace it is not a bug, the rocket is just constantly trying to go to both pitches so it stays in the middle
3.5 years ago@Insanity I tried, but it still does not seem to work
3.5 years ago@Tweedle_Aerospace it’s not rcs and gyro that is the problem, it is the fact that when the pitch is constantly changing, the rocket will just hover on a pitch in the middle.
3.5 years ago@Tweedle_Aerospace I do not know how much this will help, but try turning up stability modifier in advanced part settings on your hinge rotators.
3.5 years agoDoes this mean career mode will happen?
3.5 years ago@LostHoosier probably. You can already get in to the planet studio with no keyboard on mobile. I just can not figure out how to do anything yet since it is not done
3.5 years ago@Insanity ok. Thanks!
3.5 years ago@Insanity thanks! I want to do a boost back burn before I start the upper stage code. Do you know if the upper stage will wait to use the code until I switch to it if I use a broadcast block?
3.5 years ago@FireBirdAerospace I am pretty sure it is. I was able to download it from the App Store.
3.6 years ago@ScorpionSpace @Tweedle_Aerospace I play on iOS and I already have it.
3.6 years agoYES!
3.6 years ago@Tweedle_Aerospace yeah I had that problem too, but in the times I tried it it still worked so I left it. I also did not expect my code to be used so I did not spend very long optimizing it.
3.6 years agohere is the rocket. It is just painted differently and has booster separation motors
3.6 years ago@Tweedle_Aerospace ok- I hope to have the rocket done by tomorrow.
3.6 years ago@Tweedle_Aerospace ok- I have a version of the pre-release you made almost done. It is equipped with my program but you can change that if you want- I just did it because for some reason with the settings I have my game on the rocket always blows up at stage separation with your program.
3.6 years ago@Tweedle_Aerospace ok.
3.6 years ago@Gio2020ITA I don’t do things like that. I only want people to follow me if I deserve it and I only follow people who deserve it.
3.6 years ago@Tweedle_Aerospace Nice! Can you post the rocket so we can see the design?
3.6 years agoThis is my rocket. If I have time I plan to add a launch mount and make it look better.
3.6 years ago@Chtite451SR2 I’ve decided to call the mini one Bullet because it looks and acts more like a bullet. I will call the big one Phoenix.
3.6 years ago@Chtite451SR2 I also thought of another: Phoenix. I can’t decide between Bullet and Phoenix.
3.6 years ago@Chtite451SR2 I’m making a mini version, going to call it Bullet Mini- do you want me to credit you for the name on the post?
3.6 years ago@BrTommygun sorry it took me so long to respond! I will try that. Thanks!
3.6 years ago@Chtite451SR2 I mean like a post on the sr2 website
3.6 years ago@Tweedle_Aerospace It does not really matter what it is called- just put a link to it in this post so we can find it.
3.6 years ago@Chtite451SR2 @Tweedle_Aerospace would it be possible to do it on this post or make a new one for it?
3.6 years ago@Chtite451SR2 I don’t have discord :(
3.6 years ago@Tweedle_Aerospace thanks!
