    12:44 There is a setting in the game called “extended burn indicator” that tells you exactly when to burn the engines to get the most precise burn. Not turned on by default for some reason and not as precise as guidance mods like mechjeb but very useful for transfer burns and long burns in stock ksp.
    And, if you’re fine with not playing full stock, there is a mod called “bettertimewarp” that allows you to time warp at whatever speed you want. Physics warp to 16x speed for low thrust burns with ion engines or nuclear engines can cut down the time needed for burns by a lot.

    Engine plates are the soltion to the problem of unequal heights! they have stadard sizes instead of conforming to the length of the engine. It also allows you attach more engines to the bottom of a fuel tank. Literally the best part in the game

    Only 1 of every antenna, fuel tank, engine, decoupler, command pod, etc. you cannot have, say, two struts. Only one of everything. Your planetary destination is your choice.
