So I've been playing around with the newest MechJeb.

Oh my god this thing is great. I take off manually, with the throttle assists on (No sudden jet flameout? No overheats? Hell yeah!), manually put my nodes together, click "execute all" and I got Jebediah outside of the solar system with a slingshot off of Mun and a slingshot off Jool and Tylo. Oh yeah.

I HAVE ACHIEVED ORBIT AROUND KERBIN

YEEEEEEEAH!

This is ground control to Major Geoff!
You've really made the retrograaaade!
And the kermans want to know who shot you where!
Now it's time to leave the capsule if you dare! (He won't.)

Mechjeb can perform nodes for you now?  Sweet jesus have mercy...

Nice work.

And then he exploded on the surface of the moon because, although he was descending slowly, he was going 400 KM/h horizontally.

STILL.

FIRST KERMAN EXPLODED ON THE MOON.

Now shoot for Minmus

Wow. You sure are rattling through these milestones.

Now shoot for Minmus

Can't. Demo version and all, though I do plan to buy the full game at some point.

In that case...

SHOOT FOR THE SUN!!!

So I was thinking, are there planetary orbits hard coded? Like, if you got enough engines pointing in the right direction on Minmus, say, could you move it's orbit?

They are 'on rails' as the devs call it, so are your ships in high time compression. Unity isn't exactly designed to support this sort of thing, it's impressive they making it work as it is.

I thought it can only down nodes, you still have to burn it yourself.

Nope. It can put the nodes down and do the burn too. Its not the best at doing the burn but it gets very close most of the time. Watch the video I linked.
