How do you refuel ships in KSP?

Right-click on the Rockomax Jumbo-64 Fuel Tank of your fuel tanker. If you’ve followed the tutorial, it should be full. Then, hold Alt (Option on a Mac) and right-click on the fuel tank of your target spacecraft that you want to refuel.

What is Crossfeed KSP?

Some parts are listed as “Fuel Crossfeed Capable”, which means that they allow fuel to move automatically through them to other parts that are attached to them.

What is asparagus staging?

Asparagus staging was a method to build very efficient rockets in early versions of Kerbal Space Program. The technique is still useful for building exceptionally large rockets when no larger engines are available.

How do you turn ore into fuel in KSP?

Ore can be converted into liquid fuel, oxidizer, and monopropellant using a converter and electric charge. There is no change in total mass when converting to liquid fuel and/or oxidizer, but there is when converting to monopropellant. Conversion continues to function during time warp.

How do you get depleted fuel in KSP?

If you right click on the fuel tanks in the part pane in the VAB, you can see that several of them have empty space for “Depleted Fuel”. Just make sure you have an empty can attached (you can empty it by right clicking once it’s added to your ship) and you should be able to reprocess.

How do you mine ore in KSP?

Ore is gathered by mining the solid surfaces of planets, moons, asteroids or comets, using the ‘Drill-O-Matic’ Mining Excavator. Drilling continues to function during time warp.

What is onion staging?

Onion staging. In onion staging rocket the stages are dropped like an onion in circular layers. Fuel is only drawn from the outermost stages, that are ejected next. While it is less efficient than asparagus staging because unused fueltanks are dropped later, it is more easily set up.

Why is it called asparagus staging?

But this arrangement is still a net gain for the ship as a whole, and the rocket will go farther with these side tanks than without them. This is what is described as asparagus staging, because apparently somebody once thought the cluster of side columns made the rocket look like a clump of asparagus spears.

What is advanced Tweakables in KSP?

Advanced Tweakables Button adds a button to the KSP Application launcher that allows you to toggle the Advanced Tweakables option in KSP 1.2+ without going to the settings dialog.

Can the advanced grabbing unit transfer fuel?

As you can see in the screen shots, fuel transfer works within the same vessel but not through the Advance Grabbing Unit.

How does the Kerbal Space Program refuel in space?

Fire your engines to get a transfer to whatever planet/moon your target is orbiting. Using the transfer stage, rendezvous with the target spacecraft. Once you are within 250 meters, cancel your relative velocity and jettison the transfer stage. From there, dock with your target.

What kind of ships do Kerbals go on?

KSP [1.9.1] This ship will land you on any moon inside of Dres and the sun and… Star Burst class SSTO VTOL by Vaos. A large SSTO chasis that can carry Fuel, Cargo and passengers. First edition of the Space Station series. Apollo styled rocket designed to get kerbals to the mun and back to Kerbin.

Why are kerbonauts used for the International Space Station?

The PPD-12 Cupola Module is meant to be incorporated into space stations, both because it is unsuitable for most other mission profiles and because it deliberately resembles an iconic component of the International Space Station. As of 1.2, kerbonauts do not require any consumable resources and may be left in space indefinitely.

How do you refuel a fuel tank in space?

Right-click on the Rockomax Jumbo-64 Fuel Tank of your fuel tanker. If you’ve followed the tutorial, it should be full. Then, hold Alt (Option on a Mac) and right-click on the fuel tank of your target spacecraft that you want to refuel. The right-click menu should have a section labeled “Transfer.”
