  1. I finally got around to giving my poor little career save a proper station upgrade with all my contract loot
  2. I feel the rep equation is far to slanted toward spam posters( 1 craft on 20+ threads). Which leaves most posters in the lower end regardless of the quality of posts. As has been shown here on the forum many times. I believe this has had the effect of reducing the number of new forum uses and the no; of posts they make as it can seem both fruitless and a waste of time trying to compete. It also creates a "need" to get "comments" and hopefully “Rep†from the daily posters as rep from them = more than rep from others. ( yes I do get the intention behind it "steering newbies toward contact with experienced users and giving newbies forum goals etcâ€Â. It still seems a little inherently unfair. While I understand from other posts here that it is a part of the forum and somthing that can be changed with ease I would still none the less wish to share my opinion, it may be wrong but it is what it is. ( oh and I do know the top 10ish are not prolific posters.....not big ones anyway )
  3. omg omg omg omg I Have been waiting for this for ages.... Resource mining in STOCK That new dish looks great and would be awesome as a scanner paired with a mass spectrometer Yippy new parts :)
  4. Granted $2 printed by treasury just for you but the act of making it causes inflation to jump and suddenly that $2 cheese burger cost $3 meaing you still dont have enough to buy anything. I wish to make "first contact" with inteligant alien life
  5. I think he means no part clipping as I cant see how alt f12 menu would help a bomber craft out other then helping it get to the N pole maybe
  6. I love Career mode I have done it easy and hard... not so great on the hard I really love the fact also that squad in the limitless wizdom have made it so Customisable. If theres a part u dont like you can mod it Same for all aspects of the game no no no career mode is here and that makes me 1 happy camper My major problem with KSP is the still missing Mk3 internals and the poor state of the other internals (hitch hiker can is good thou ) Please Squad update them next ...please please please please....
  7. Another laythe challenge Oh but I can’t take on another with so many things still to be done. Although I do Like this one Instead I'll just boast about how much I love laythe the 1 place other than kerbin were SSTO's are useful. Visit's to laythe's surface and under it thanks to the sub mod Now the entry craft. AC 2 ( Laythe aircraft carrier ) I took 8 thier in all to make sure I got all the bugs from the design. each with full set of science stuff 2 rovers 5 hitchhiker cans and 2 cupolas, also sent with them was 8 attack and 8 scout planes and 4 highspeed runabouts. 2 landed on sand the rest water all made down in 1 piece As for some kind of score I will just do the AC2, One of them as there all spaced out to minimise lag. . .. 50 per body =(5x4)+2x50=1100 5 parts over 1 TN = 50pts... AC2 is still over 200tn once landed & still around 500 parts soooo ( mass'ish only ) 200*50=10,000 2rovers is 400 (plus ac2 itself extra 200 600 + 2 high speed boats (they have wheels 2) 1000 Hitchhiker cans 250 x 5 =1000 Science lab is added after and I think I took 3 to laythe for the AC2 testing ( it cuts the water speed by 15m/s ) 300 Each plane 500 ( fits 4 but only took 2 each ) 1000 Its mobile, it floats and it can be driven- 100, 150, 50 - 300 14700 Not a good score and probably not very accurate Sorry for not using spoilers they just don’t seem to work for me. I hope this challenge goes well and lots of people get a new love of laythe out of it
  8. Ok So not soooo well structured a challenge... Still giving it a go.. Slugger with a flipped cargo bay loaded with 1 of the following racks; 24 small / 12 medium / 2 large bombs or 1 ICBM. Slugger is an SSTO cargo plane so it will easily make the N pole I think I broke a rule or 2 as it has 0 mods ( 100%stock ) Racks are sub assemblies - WIP - "Guppy" - I'm working on a cargo SSTO that can be re-loaded from the runway for easy turnaround so I hope to have that done soon and it should be just the thing for here
  9. Very Cool Very Neat Track. I cant wait for this to be combined with kerbside etc to have a real rail line. Evan just to the 1 between the VAB and the Pad would be a great addition to the game if it worked and would add a bit of soviet style realism to it.
  10. I have just the thing to help you with the Ion Glider your making... http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/85728-Ion-glider-collier-trophy! After reading a bunch of ion focused threads Slash In my opinion is they highest authority on them. Check it out and maybe PM him for idea's and inspiration. he has a bunch of great designs and is really helpfull to any that ask.
  11. Nice Flying there whiteknuckle also very impressive VTOL, Looking forward to watching your company flourish - Keep the cool craft coming
  12. New island runway SSTO refueler And Who dosn't like jumping around on a Big Bike
  13. Mmmm what do I hid in a cargo bay... My snazzy little science craft for coastin out to mun or dipping into the atm o of duna this little beauty is great fun to take for little trips out away from the "mothership" aslo there great little shuttles Mk 2 EP for Chubby The lift comes courtesy of my SSTO "Chubby"
  14. 8/10 Fair but to diplomatic
  15. 09/10 the movie could have been better....
  16. co-pilot, the terrorists always kill the pilot then get the co to fly Would you rather your rocket blow up on the way up or the way down
  17. Granted. The debris rains down on the earth killing millions and destroying all civilization as you know it. You’re subsequently killed for a chocolate bar by the starving lawless masses. I wish for world peace so we can all focus on science
  18. Granted but thier combined salary causes budget blowout and the only myths they bust are theories on paper. I wish KSP hurried up and made Mk3 internals
  19. Wanted to add a pic or 2 of my Mk3 part interplanetary SSTO "Chubby" it make's orbit with > 2000ltrs to spare Cargo is a small science shuttle craft design recently upgraded for VTOL 0g landing's Currently using this craft to level up a large crew of kerbals at once so that future mission crews can repair wheels etc. I'm also dropping off science shuttle at every station I dock with. Plus it can fit an orange tank in the cargo bay with room to spare.
  20. Ok. So to start with I have now been everywhere and done most everything I can think of in KSP. I have been an addict since 0.16 and still have every release on my PC along with 1 save per version. I have gone through most mods as well and still keep them sorted by version No; ... just in case. Oh except Mcjeb I stopped using that in 0.20. ( and before its said Yes I have done kethane/ Real solar/ FAR life support /KAS/ etc. etc. & found it dull... best mods ever are graphics mods:) ) I have sailed <100km over Jool, done the grand tour etc and up until recently found joy in just creating and flying absurd creations for contracts. ( yes I have done it with no reverts and little rewards ) Before I continue; To be honest it was after a forum "discussion" that my interest started to diminish ( it seems were not allowed to have an opinion that differs from the 6 main prolific posters in the exchange. U know who you are ) So I'm hoping that "normal" forum users that can grant me some sage wisdom and inspiration that will see my affection for KSP come back in spade's I am open to all suggestions and I'm sure lots of critic's. So please lend me your ideas and help me find a reason to go-on Edit; Thank you all for the great idea's
  21. Awesome Mug mate. I especially love the Screaming biscuit shelf
  22. u mean this pic nice little launcher there CrowT I made a 36k rescue ssto, its about as cheap as i get. but it can buzz mun / minmus and return safe edit; whoops thats not the.25 version. my how the prices have gone up. now even the basics of that design are 53k and I do the same ( try to rotate pics ) its even worse when i watch utube
  23. Lets hope the russians dont have any drama's from spaceflightnow.com "Launch from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan is set for 3:09:42 a.m. EDT (0709:42 GMT) Wednesday, or 1:09 p.m. local time at the Central Asia spaceport"
  24. Watched the replay several times now and I'm probably wrong but it appears to go after it cleared the water tower I wonder if it was a leak with a rouge flame chasing the rocket. Oh well at least nobody was onboard. I bet the april launch will be delay a loooong time now. I hope they have a back-up launch facility.
