And upgrades start to get expensive on that end of things. Till you build more Science to unlock the R&D trees. Its important to make sure you do not go wild with building your rocket as money will be a factor for building the bigger better rockets. You can also lighten the load by taking all the Monopropellant from the capsule as you have no RCS (Rocket Control Systems) till later. Also make sure your Parachute and SRB (Solid Rocket Booster) are on separate stages. You can add about 3 to 4 Mystery Goo Containers for extra Science. Other than the Temp gauge and ladder rungs, this is your most basic craft to build with the parts on hand to accomplish your contract. You can add fins if you wish and get something similar to this craft: But your initial rocket is easily built using a capsule, parachute, and engine. Some terms that will come up I will try to explain on the spot and no further unless trying to specifically discuss a subject. This will give you rockets and aircraft for you to use rather easily once you have the parts unlocked in career/science mode or outright in sandbox. Just go into settings/difficulty and find the option for stock vessels. If you need better assistance with building vessels the game does have stock vessels for you to use. And so begins the guide:īuilding a rocket is pretty simple and if you have not run through all the tutorials on the main menu I highly recommend you do so if you have not the inclination for aviation or rocketry. Pretty simple of going to Mission Control and selecting 2 of the easier contracts which is usually Launching a craft and doing some science of one sort of another. I blame Kerbal Engineering.Īnyways I recommend that everyone at least start a game in career to be able to unlock the Open for Business achievement right off the bat along with Space! Space! SPAAAACE!.

A majority of the achievements in the game are pretty much getting to a planet, doing a flyby, and returning home successfully. But you can use the Science or Sandbox modes for working towards these achievements the game has. This guide is designed with career mode in mind. I initial came to the forum to seek to expand my builds by sharing and examining other designs the community has been building or asking about. Welcome to my potential perpetual players guide for Kerbal Space Program.
