Then explain what especially is your problem

#

0.4 is fine for a rendezvous

#

do you kill the relativ speed?

#

when you reach the closest point. bot ships have a diffrent speed because the have a diffrent orbit. you have to get to 0m/s relative speed to rendervouz

dusk wedge
#

If you are at the same speed as your target, you will likely have the same orbit as your target

#

what is it ?

fickle herald
#

if you have the same orbit you dont will get closer or get more far a way

dusk wedge
#

then what you need to do is wait to be close to the target and kill the relative speed

#

so that you have the same speed as your target

#

if you want to dock, you don't care if this fucks up the orbit

#

you killed to much speed

#

were you in "target" mode in your navball ?

#

basically, above your navball, there is a little black rectangle, it should be written "orbit" or "surface" on it. Click it until it's written "target", then put your speed to 0 by burning retrograde

#

that's how you kill your relative speed

#

what ?

#

do you have any screeshots ?

#

ok

fickle herald
#

relative to your target

dusk wedge
#

it's 0 m/s RELATIVE to the target

#

the relative speed is how faster or slower you are moving to your target

#

it's the speed difference between you and your target

#

alr

#

how high you wish

#

nice 👍

#

wait you don't add any docking port ?

#

yes of course

#

ah, I only play sandbox xD

fickle herald
#

dont rendervouz if you dont have the marker unlockerd

dusk wedge
#

wait you need to unlock markers in career mode ?!

#

wow that's another world

#

ok

#

have you set the ship as a target ?

#

alright then try to make a manoeuver node to get a close encounter

#

and execute that manoeuver node

#

try to get closer with it

#

like less than a 1km separation

#

don't forget that if any of those orbits is tilted, you should use the "normal" and "anti normal" things on the maneouver maker

#

try to get closer

#

if you can't, press the "skip orbit" button on the maeouver maker

#

nice

#

then warp to that 1km separation

#

nice now warp here

dusk wedge
#

and burn retrograde until the showed speed is 0 m / s

#

also I recommend you to make some quick saves if it's your first rendezvous

#

how much delta V do you have left ?

#

is your relative speed 0 ?

#

is that your delta V ?

#

It's the blue thing at the bottom left

#

where your current stage is

#

you are going too fast to slow down

#

your delta V is how much you can accelerate or slow down in the vacuum of space

#

here you are going 987 m/s relative to your target but only have 693 m/s of delta V

#

so you don't have enough

#

BUT

#

maybe by the time of you're encounter your relative speed will get slower

#

oh it still has 1100 m/s delta V ?

#

ok gotta be quick

#

switch to the other ship

#

set the original one as a target and burn retrograde at the encounter

#

you should have enough delta V

#

yes

#

when you are close

dusk wedge
#

at the encounter

#

then we will use the "lazy method"

#

that's why you should use quicksaves 😢

#

maybe in a couple of orbits they will encounter again

#

your welcome

#

bon appetit

dusk wedge
#

yep

#

need any help ?

#

alright no worries
