Mod that calculates trajectories for you?

[Sushi_Rocks]

Is there any mod that can find the closest transfer window and trajectory to the orbit of a certain planet and draw the course for me? I find the "drag & hope for match"-navigation in this game pretty horrible, because it is so imprecise.

If you use the graphic interface in the bottom left for a maneuver node you can click the little < and > symbols in the middle of the direction markers and that will move your maneuver node around your orbit.

It is linked to the scale bar and it also works with mouse scroll - mouse scrolling will give you smaller increments than clicks, but clicks are quicker to make big adjustments. You can get very precise placement that way.

Just thought I'd bring that up for any maneuver node you need to do, even if you use the mod :)

These are the mods that show flight data, nodes, orbits, have auto pilots etc.

That is exactly the point of the game, that you find out the time and the place to start the maneuver in order to get as close as possible to a point for an orbit at the target.
There are enough tutorials on YouTube that show how it works without mods.
If you want to have everything pre-chewed, then watch any film where a spaceship lands on a strange planet!
