Throttle Control

[Spaceman3d]

Is there annyway to control Trottle besides Full Thrust and engine off right now. If not hope thats gets addet in one comming update.

As far as I can tell not yet. We don’t get NG’s nice hovers were stuck in Falcon 9 hover slams for now lol

Yes, I believe Up and Down (arrow keys) can control thrust power. It seems like the minimum is 5% thrust at the moment. Check the controls tab in the escape menu for all the keybinds.

Thank you!! I missed this this will be very helpful lol

Honestly, that would be better if the throttle and ignition keys were binded on the shift and control, like as ksp

The hand that can reach z and x should also be able to reach the throttle controls. Agree

You can always rebind them in the controls, but I haven't dared mess up the control scheme yet lol

Since the stock craft has a very high TWR, I've also been using 0.1 time warp to get more percise burns when 5% throttle is still just too much.

Each rocket has a defined minimum throttle value (5% for the stock ones). I think they added this for realism, since you also can not run a rocket engine with to low thrust.

i see someone said up and down, so im going to try that when i get back on, but i thought i'd leave my workaround here anyway. What i was doing was turning time down to 0.1 speed and that lets u do fine velocity adjustments at full thrust

Thought the same until I actually looked at the binding config. Not sure why they didn't go with LShift & LCtrl but it's easy enough to re-bind them.
