How to transfer to another planet using (Alcubierre) Warp Drive (Interstellar Mod)

Step 1. Equip Alcubierre drive and exit atmosphere.

Step 2. Calculate a velocity vector change-vector or dV-vector that is needed to match velocities with target planet using simple vector calculation (or just visually)

Step 3. Warp close to a point, that is near a dV vector and near central star

Step 4. Wait for the gravity of the central star to change your initial velocity vector, into desired (final) velocity vector.


Step 5. Warp to target planet, and fine tune orbit as required
