Is your game paused? You can not make maneuver nodes if the simulation is paused
Then I don’t know. If you set it as the target and burn towards it you might be able to get there. But you would need a lot of fuel. The easiest way to fix your problem would be to add one of the large antenna to your craft. Those can get signal from Duna to ksc. You would also need to get batteries to run the antenna
Then you can use maneuver nodes
you know that burning towards something is like the worse way of getting there
I know. Which is why I also suggested use the antenna with the gm measurement for units. To get a signal to ksc if you have already started the launch you would need to restart the mission.
but I would have done that if I wanted to go back to ksc again
So it is a one way trip. If you don’t want to use antennas. The only other way to do it is trial and error. And you would need to a lot of quick saves. So I think you could try burning from around kerbin when the prograde would extend to duna. At the right time. If it does not work load the quick save. And try again. But it is almost impossible to get to duna without maneuver nodes.
if you have a warp drive, sure that might work, in any other case, that's a horribly inefficent and won't work without infinite fuel and a ton of time on your hands
absolutely possible to do, just far more inefficent, you can still do the usual bruteforcing that you do when making manuever nodes, but with actually making burns for it instead of just changing the plan
we've all been here, consider it part of the learning pains. Now you know, if you have no kerbals, you need antennae!
the mission worked out anways
oh and I have a while to go :(
