I misunderstood what I was asking, I've got what I was looking for now though. Thank you for your answer.

How do you calculate how much delta v is lost from gravity and atmospheric drag? I've been looking for days but I can't find anything that actually tells me how it's calculated. For example it takes 1.5 km/s - 2 km/s extra delta v for a low Earth orbit because of drag loss, how was that number...

I'm sorry if this isn't astrophysics but I didn't know what else to post on. So I play this game called Kerbal Space Program, and I've recently been trying to calculate the delta v needed to launch my rockets and spaceships from all the planets and moons in the game. I learned how to calculate...
