I'm trying to make a sucessful mun landing before upgrading from the demo, was mechjeb ever compatible with 13.3?
I seem to have novapunch that is compatable so i'm wondering if there was anything still available that would give improved data like speed altitude and etc like mechjeb does, and i can't seem to find anything like that in the forums.

This is not KSP.

HA, I mixed threads up, i wonder what i ended up posting in the KSP thread.

Is there a button you have to press to make asteroid miners actually mine?

[gimlet]

Nope just put em in orbit and they go to it.  I think it does have to be designated a colony though...

[Metalax]

yes, asteroid miners that have been moved to a colony on an asteroid will automatically mine and place their haul in the colonies stockpile. Make sure you have used the "move to" and not the "orbit" command to move them there, while a 0km orbit puts them at the same location, the game does not treat them as if they are at the colony.

What exactly are the effects of this? I'm pretty sure I've only used extended orbit commands for mining fleets, and they seem to work fine.

Hrm. How long does an extended orbit last anyways?

[Tarran]

Forever, as far as I can tell.

[Flying Dice]

I seem to recall that the flavor difference is that normal 'move to' orders have the ships land on the system body. Could be wrong, though.

[Karlito]

The trouble I usually run into with asteroid miners is having to issue the move command twice. You can order a move to a body that isn't a colony and the game will automatically create a colony for you, but then you have to issue the move command again to get them to actually register as "mining modules in orbit".

You have to do this when joining fleets too. Since sometimes I stack like 20 plus miners on a single asteroid and have the newly produced ones join the fleets already mining.

It's pretty annoying.

I use this strategy too, a big mining fleets that strips one asteroid at a time, with a sibgle freighter carring a mass driver

I've been pumping greenhouse gases into the Martian atmosphere for 20 years, but the temperature hasn't budged.  How long does it take to heat up a planet?

There is a cap on how hot you can make a world.  Only the first 3 atmospheres count towards heating the planet.

Hence why Titan sucks.
