Flight Question wieght vs thrust vs maneuverability

[kc2dws]

Hello all

I downloaded the battlestar Galactica bsg75_001. while trying to use the rwarp mfd there is not enough fuel to reach mars. I edited the cfg file to allow for enough fuel.

When i try to orientate to the correct flight path, It seems that it can not stop. It will not stop at proper orientation to destination.

Any help would be appreciated.

Post the .cfg for the vessels, and the .scn. This way, we can repeat the problem and debug it.

The key to orienting very heavy ships with comparatively weak thrusters is to do it very slowly. IMFD's auto-point works best with DG-like manoeuvrability; a huge thing like that would be twirling around for hours.

Related: There's another galactica addon here. IMO it's much better.

Reduced Thrust

Reduced Thrust

After working with the engine thrust, And using small movements suggested by izack it will behave properly. I am sorry I failed to explain that i increased the amount of thrust in the cfg file, To offset the fuel added. without the added thrust it would have been a week before it orientated. After i took a closer look it seems that i really over did the thrust or weight.

I downloaded the spacecraft suggested by izack, And i agree

Thanks for your time.
