Now that we're able to execute maneuvers accurately, we need to find which maneuvers we need. This time, rather than diving into the math and physics, we'll use two simple functions. One will give us a score for a maneuver, and the other will make tiny naïve improvements. This pair allows us to hone in on a perfect circularization burn using a strategy known as hill climbing!

This tutorial is running on KSP version 1.4.1, and kOS version 1.1.5.2.
