Focus current craft on orbit map

Question

I lost focus of my craft on the orbit map and I'm flying far away from any celestial bodies that I can focus. I have to plan a maneuver but a single pixel on my current flight path represents a couple of hours of flight time since I cannot get a good angle on in. Is there any way to regain focus on my craft like i can click on Kerbal or Minmus for instance.

Answer 1

You can use the backtick ` key to focus on your current ship. This should reset the zoom level as well as the position.

Answer 2

As of May the 4th (the time of my checking and verifying), the key used to focus the active vessel is the back quote: ` .

(That is the key next to the 1 on the US keyboard layout)

Answer 3

They changed it to ` (also the ~ key). It's the button to the left one the 1 key on the number line.

Answer 4

The easiest way I know of is to go through the tracking station if the ship isn't actually the active ship. If it is the active ship, the way I typically return (which may not be the best way) is to increase time warp to the first level, focus on the sun, and then use Shift+Tab to get back to the ship. A couple of notes on this: first is that if you have maneuver nodes, they'll be focused first, keep hitting Shift+Tab, and second, the time warp is so that you don't throttle your engine up.

Answer 5

Double-left-clicking on your ship will change the focus to it, without changing anything else.
