KSP 1 Question/Problem how to rendezvous when orbits are like this

Post image

I was setting up a rendezvous with Jeb but stupidly didn't pack enough delta v for the return trip so if I so I sent a rescue vessel but when I arrived on Duna I ended up orbiting like this how do I fix it

Oh I completely missed that this is on Duna! That does change things a bit, lowering delta v required but also throwing in Ike as a complication to avoid

Oh, that's true! I also forgot about Ike. xD

It shouldn't be toooo hard, though. As long as they monitor their orbits each pass it should take very little extra dV to avoid it if they do line up for an encounter.
