And again, it's not the landing I have trouble with. It's the timing when to exit manual supercruise that I have trouble with.
EDIT: This timing issue then means I end up with 15 minutes or more of real time spent traveling the rest of the way, for fear of overshooting and crashing into the planet. Only one in ten attempts at manual supercruise end with me coming to a stop close to the destination. The rest of the time I'm either 300 ms too far and having to turn around due to not slowing soon enough or I'm 150-400 ks away from the target due to stopping too soon.
Ok, so what I tend to do is, I aim to get into the final glide at around 100km out. The glide takes up around 60-70km. In most cases, where you are landing on a planet that has a base, they are Low-G planets, meaning that even a little overshoot is easily dealt with. keep the the throttle as low as you can just before going into the glide, when you come out of the glide you will hardly be travelling at all. I don't come straight down on the target either, I always line up the target as though I was a plane coming into land, rather than a helicopter.
Despite me giving you the numbers of 100km and 60-70km, I rarely come out of glide over 20km from the target. I'm nearly always between 7-10km, sometimes as low as 4km. Maybe I'm taking my eye off the clock at these points, but the 100km out mark is my indicator to move in.
The other thing to try is aiming to overshoot the target, I don't know the technical term but there is a centre point on the 2 lines in the centre of the screen:
Not my picture but you can see that I have drawn 2 crude black lines on the outside of the ones I mean.
In this photo, they are just under shooting it. you can try over shooting it. BTW, this is almost the perfect angle I was talking about when I enter the glide. Look like that at around 100km out, you should have no problems.
Hope this helps, if not, later today I will make a vid.
