While on paper this sounds great, there's a high chance something will be very wrong with the initial release and having the entire team bail out for two weeks right afterwards might backfire on you.

Another rule worth heeding is that you should not follow the advice of any KSP guide made before May 2015. That method would've worked fine in the beta, but 1.0 changed everything.

I took a small break from building and maintaining my MKS space stations to try something silly. I'd been entertaining the idea of an interplanetary "mothership" for a while now, so I slapped something together in the VAB and - to my surprise - it made it to orbit, and I took the opportunity to take the three crewmembers out of Kerbin's SOI and back for the experience. Once I got it back to an orbit around Kerbin, I decided to grapple onto it with a small tug containing lots of parachutes and airbrakes and use the engineer to install everything to get it planetside in one piece. All was going well until I tried retracting the radiators for ease of movement, and.... The ship was on a 100km equatorial orbit. I have not one, but two space stations on a 100km equatorial Kerbin orbit. And I guess as of just now a couple of wingless Mk.2 hulls with nuclear engines strapped to them, along with a streak of orbital debris. Kessler Syndrome ho! Should make things interesting.

"Weight" implies mass multiplied by local gravitational force. Your TWR is a percentage your ship's max acceleration compared to the local free fall acceleration. If it's less than one, gravity overpowers your thrust and the net acceleration vector will point towards the planet.

Bouncing and sticking are two different things, though. I Am Bread sold notoriously poorly in spite of being covered by all the big youtubers. And it's actually a pretty in depth game, too, when you look closely. The thing is, people look at those videos, decide they've seen the perceived gimmick of the game and don't buy it because they don't think there's anything more to them.

Youtubers like him have next to no influence in sales figures most of the time.

Time isn't valuable, gameplay-wise. What's the difference between getting the results instantly and time warping for five seconds beforehand?

I refreshed Twitch and it's no longer letting me in to the site. Hooray >_>
