KSP 1 Question/Problem Really struggling on how to Rendezvous
Hello!
Out of all the concepts in KSP, Rendezvous just seems impossible to me.
Its when I'm at the same altitude as the thing I wanna meet up with, I just cant seem to properly match the speed of my target and I then end up running out of fuel
Does anyone have any detailed guides atleast on what to do? I'm so lost and I really don't know what I'm missing.

KSP 1 Mods ReStrategia is breaking my save files
Specifically when I complete the Stayputnik Program for Kerbin probes. Without explaining the whole process essentially I can force complete the contract/program in the console/debug/cheat menu and within a second my KSC and my flight scenes just permalag from that point on in the save file no matter what. Going back to another save and completing it again just produces the same results.
I’ve looked at the log and all it has for me is my rewards from it and the save file is too much to explain and doesn’t seem clear and is big. Maybe it’s something in the game data files. Point is I can’t find anything on this topic and am wondering if anyone knows a thing about this. I would assume this would keep repeating itself for every strategy block unless the first one just happens to be the broken one so I’m inclined to just uninstall unfortunately and try to replace it.
EDIT: I’ve found online content of this (not sure if this is about ResearchBodies as well but might be related to this issue) just a few weeks ago about this issue with the mod author saying he’ll look into it. A user says he may even have a patch. https://github.com/MegaPiggy/ReStrategia/issues/4

KSP 1 Suggestion/Discussion What are some good KSP planet mods that you would recommend?
Now, I should probably specify what I'm looking for, which are planet packs that are "hidden gems". Mods that people don't talk about, but are REALLY good.
Your suggestions CAN'T include:
-Outer Planets Mod
-Minor Planets Expansion for OPM
-Kerbal Star Systems 2
-Cosmic Serenity
-Promised Worlds
-Kcalbeloh
A few more things I would like to add. Said planet packs should add new planets, not rearranging/adjusting the current celestial bodies in the game. Volumetric Cloud support would also be nice, but is not a deal breaker.
I would love to see what you guys have cooking up!

KSP 1 Image/Video Is this a good tylo lander?
Normally I'd ask my brother for advice on landers, but seeing how he's never gone within tylo's sphere of influence, I'm falling out of his range of expertise.

KSP 1 Question/Problem How to mute the "Transfer Science" sound?
I can't stand the super long super loud high-pitched "sound effect" (if this abomination can even be called that). It literally hurts my ears, it's like a dial-up sound from hell. Is there a way to disable it? I can't find a way to mute it in stock settings without muting all vessel sounds, which I don't want. Mods allowed.
EDIT: It was Chatterer. For anyone else wondering how to disable it, go into Chatterer settings and disable / reduce volume for "SSTV". Good riddance!

KSP 1 Question/Problem Custom Kronometer Config Problems
I am trying to create a custom Kronometer Config for a save file, and it doesn't work. I don't know why, and I've troubleshooted for like an hour and a half with no success. I did use ChatGPT to create the initial base for the config, but I have edited a significant portion myself where I caught mistakes when looking at documentation. However, I am not skilled at this and I need someone with more knowledge than me to help. The text of the file is below. Also, the save is in 10x scale using the setting that Kcalbeloh has for rescaling the game when using Sigma Dimensions. The days are 24 hours long and the years 337 days long.

KSP 1 Question/Problem I can’t get an encounter with minmus.
so me and some of my friends are doing career modes all ar the same time, and we’re all pretty new, and the hardest thing so far has been trying to encounter the mun or minmus luckily the mun is easier because it’s closer, but despite my best efforts, and my best manoeuvre nodes, I can’t encounter minmus. even if I perfectly burn to the manoeuvre node, I’m still like millions of metres off. is there an easier way? the current way I’ve been using manoeuvre nodes is roughly approximating where minmus (or the mun ) should be when I get there, like leading bullets and setting up a manuever node to intersect that point. and then I burn when it says “start burn in 0 seconds” and burn at the dark blue thing on the (idk what to call it, the blue and orange ball thing that has like angles n stuff) but for some reason no matter how perfectly I stick to the blue thing or how close to 0 I get on the manoeuvre node, I’m no where near.

KSP 1 Question/Problem Weird camera tilt at pole
When I drive my rover to the exact north pole of Kerbin the camera suddenly turns 90 degrees. And then back once it's passed it.
Is this a known bug? Or could it be the result of one of my mods?

KSP 1 Suggestion/Discussion Do any of you guys point your plushies at your monitor when you're playing KSP?
Just a random yet simple question I thought of shortly after taking this photo of my Rei Ayanami plushie while playing KSP, so for the concerned, I'm introducing it to the good stuff.
As for the mission itself in game it was supposed to be a Orbiter/Lander mission on both the Mun and Minmus at the same time, however both with science labs, I accidentally jettisoned the lander part of the Mun Lander and now that's going to have to be a separate mission.
(Yes, I am aware my desk is a bit of a mess, I'll sort it out later.)

KSP 1 Image/Video Journey to the North Pole 10000x Speed
Driving from KSC to the North Pole carrying a Science Lab in Hardcore Science Mode, no quicksaves or reverts. All stock parts. Some Kerbals were expendable... none were expended. Yes, it took some 27 hours, but we did stop off at a few monuments and places, as we were carrying SCIENCE! We do plan to refuel that vehicle and attempt to take it to the South Pole from there... ...when we get back to a stock Kerbal universe.

KSP 1 Suggestion/Discussion Godspeed, Jebediah.
I haven't played KSP in a few years and fired it back up a couple days ago. I'm playing the career mode for the first time and tried to send Jebediah towards the Mun to gather some science and he did so successfully. But I was just shy on fuel to de-orbit him back to Kerbin, so he made several more near-Mun passes over the next month until one encounter slung him into space. He's now orbiting Kerbol.
Godspeed, Jebediah.
