  1. Past hour
  2. Floor 4772: a floor with kittens playing and purring sweetly. 015004272024
  3. "Slow is smooth, smooth is fast" - Navy SEALS
  4. I get that, I'm the same way with most games and in general I'd rather take a well crafted 100 hours instead of 500 procedurally generated drivel. KSP is different for me and I know for a fact that it's different for a lot of people so from that perspective the replayability is a major concern. I must have played at least a dozen playthroughs from scratch with different mods and goals in mind. That's also for many people a huge issue regarding IG's communication. We don't know at all what kind of design we'll be even getting at the end. Will there be a storyline? Several? Continuous updates bringing more missions regularly? A new system with colonies to complement the current science experiments? Rebalance of tech tree at some point? Is interstellar required to unlock the most advanced tech? What's the plan on replayability in general? Nobody really knows.
  5. Today
  6. And as experienced trader, he didn't see any difference between the China/Nippon goods and what he is getting on Hispanola. The famous Haitian pepper... Oh, wait... The famous Virginian pepper. That's why they were calling it India.
  7. Well for me I personally don't believe that much in "past track records", and just because it takes this long between this update and the next one doesn't mean it would be the case forever. I'd think the gap betwwen 0.2.1 and 0.2.2 would be much longer than the one between 0.2.2 and 0.2.3, since the latest update shows something that's not going to be in the game in 0.2.2. My speculation is that 0.2.3 would come about a month after 0.2.2 and will include a plume overhaul, perhaps a few more parts but no big content update. The multi-layer clouds will come in 0.3.0 or after that. Still, some hope is good.
  8. He kept stepping on a rake, and it kept not hitting him SMH.
  9. Even if he was fooled first time, he knew exactly what distance does it take at the end of his life. And it was many times shorter that any Earth circumference.
  10. Sorry. I wrote 26000 km in diameter. I meant 26000 km circumference.
  11. By almost two orders of magnitude. Anyway, he did it four times.
  12. If-you used RP-1 and RO Engine.Go to the Kerbal Space Program\GameData\RP-1,find the NonRP0.cfg,open it and set all the "Delete"to"Update", then go to the Kerbal Space Program\GameData\ROEngines delete which Engines cfgs you want to using in this Soivet rocket mod.Well done you can see the parts in the VAB and SPH.
  13. He bungled his calculations. This was a major criticism of the time, but he lucked out and found Hispaniola where he expected Nippon, instead of being eaten by his own starving crew.
  14. Columbus could believe that he is going to cross a 30 000 or a 60 000 km wide ocean, but after he had arrived, he knew exactly, what distance separates him from the Europe. And especially, several crossings later. So, he could be telling everybody that he visited China, but he definitely was aware that it is "another China". It makes even more impossible for Columbus to believe in a 60 000 km wide China.
  15. Floor 4771: a sign with the stroken out caption "Floor 4770"
  16. Please see my post earlier in this thread. Europeans believed the Earth to be about 26000 km in circumference until Magellan's expedition sailed across the Pacific 25 years after Columbus. Magellan himself expected the Pacific to be a small sea separating the Americas from Asia. It scared the *crap* out of them when they ended up sailing for 40 days across it to reach more familiar lands. (Magellan's slave could speak Malay and found that he could speak with some of the people where they first made landfall, near the modern day Phillipines, so they knew they' d reached somewhere close to the Malaccas.)
  17. Granted. Then one Kerbal on Tylo will be wishing to respawn on the Earth.
  18. Believe what you want, I guess, but Columbus was not aware of the correct radius of the Earth, even though it had been pretty accurately calculated more than 1000 years before him. That's why he had so much trouble finding backers who were willing to fund his expedition -- most everyone else was aware that China was much farther away than Columbus believed it to be.
  19. Breaking the rules is exactly what they call cheating.
  20. They should use a vacuum cleaner. It's a lot of vacuum around. Used astronaut diapers. This should also save the mass of the lunar ship by absence of toilet. *** Btw, has anyone suggested a broom? Of course, we know that there are no dust clouds in vacuum. A long broom with an alpenstock at the opposite end. An a PP-duster for fine cleaning. By nuking it first, they can have a flat lake of glass. *** Upd. Latex suits! Expendable layer of liquid latex spray. Spray it on the suit before EVA to look stylish on the Moon, scratch it off after getting inside. All dust will be in a trashcan.
  21. Mi-28 has a radio compartment, also purposed for the evacuation of 2 (3 if tamp) people, or bail out a squad of hobbitroopers.
  22. I believe that a person who crossed the ocean, was enough experienced in star navigation and thus aware of the Earth radius to understand that no China can be 30 000 km across. Exactly like Drake and others unlikely could believe in West India and East India occupying similar territory together. It's another question that they called every non-Bibleic land "China" or "India", and were keeping in secret everything possible to help their competitors with finding the lands they had found. Nobody was declaring "All! Look, we have found Australia! But we won't tell you where it is!" All of them got used to keep the tongue behind the teeth. So, like in the USSR there were cities like Chelyabinsk and Chelyabinsk-70, Arzamas and Arzamas-16, Moscow and Moscow-400 and so on, separated with hundreds kilometers, read their "China" as "China-92", and "India" as "India-12" and "India-14", or "a china", "an india".
  23. Fantastic news! My craft has been causing all kinds of issues with Dv calculations... I want to ask why saving/reloading screws my dV calculations as well, is this something you guys have seen internally? I have a craft that causes it 100% of the time so if not I can send that to you guys to test with as well
  24. Quite a few things have changed since then.
  25. The first rule of cheating is to not talk about cheating. Which means everyone in this thread is breaking the first rule, and therefore cheating.
