I recently pelted down a copy of the beautiful NASSP Apollo addon.
There are a few blocks in the road during flight, and the included documents do not provide solutions / procedures.
1/ I can understand why the TLI starts early when controlled by the flight computer, but it starts too early almost every time, which deters my flight trajectory. I usually end up farther from the moon than I want to be, which results in having to use more fuel for LOI, taking usually about 60-70% of the CSM/LM's fuel. (this is even with the scenario provided, "ready for TLI" and the one right after cutoff with suggested input)
2/ Once in lunar orbit, and I undock the LM, RCS starts up fine, I hit all the switches I need to power up engines, yet the main engine shows no sign of function. i've ran through the checklist a few times, just to be sure I hit everything I needed to.
3/ The provided lunar decent program, Verb 37 Noun 63 responds with a Verb 06 Noun 89, which under the list of verbs and nouns, is undefined in any of the documentation. The display(P63, V06, N89) feeds back two values when program 63 is run in the provided Apollo 11 checkpoint, "ready for lunar decent."
|+02343|
|+00068|

A label of the values, or a rundown of the decent process would be much appreciated.

. It also could be helpful for base-less moons, of course.
