  1. There's a mod with an aircraft carrier deck, it made a catapult system by having a gap (usually stowed but the deck was animated so it could open) that the front landing gear fit in. It had a block in the back that pushed the gear forward to accelerate the plane. I don't remember what it was called.
  2. @NotAnAimbot, that sounds good, but my bad-at-math mind cannot comprehend about half of what you said.
  3. You can, but I'm gonna stick nervs in point maluses up the wazoo (no passenger wants to fly in a nuclear rocket plane). (Actually I'm just gonna add it to the RTG malus and calll it a day)
  4. May I suggest building a asymmetric SSTO? It's a pain but they look really cool.
  5. You can enter however many times you want. Be reasonable though. EDIT: You can only submit once in each category, but submissions can be replaced.
  6. I want range to be a viable way of accumulating points too, and I'm afraid that reducing the value of range or putting it into brackets could harm that. If it is too good I would prefer dividing it by two or something.
  7. Bad train big car is the thing that comes after to water side sun light. The train is the third busiest track road in the track road, and the busiest outside of the cold way line. The rolling stuff road often has big rolling things leading it, two story big line cars having a business class, one bad class, 3 more bad class, and a bad class/stuff/driving place car trailing the train to allow easy stuff carrying in the other way once the train reaches its warm side turn around place of. It goes to to, usually to drop off moving people going places (to head even farther cold place than its coldest place turn), people for LA, or to pick up people going places heading warmer places. lots of often has it taking on normal big cars, single floor and, and even. The moving connected cars are planned to have their job done by other things, the rolling stuff to have their job done by rented rolling cars, like to the ones used on big fall.
  8. If you look at the scoring formula, speed is included. You get 2000 free points if you can hit 2000m/s, which is much easier than carrying 400 kerbals at any speed..
  9. What are you asking? Aircraft can be supersonic.
  10. Anybody else have some ideas on how to improve scoring? Recalculation will be easy because you have to post your base statistics. Otherwise I think the scoring will change soon.
  11. Or just not orbit. I love the idea of a rocket-boosted space plane jumping between continents. That's why I wrote subject to change. This challenge is still in its infancy. I think the bonuses should be boosted a lot too because it's a safety challenge.
  12. This is pretty similar to what you are asking for. Really, people are not likely to do your challenge if it is 36 words long. The OP of most challenges are quite long, but more importantly, detailed. Look at some of the very popular challenges and try to be like them. It's what I do. I try to emulate popular challenges because my weak ego requires people to like what I make, because I want to make a good challenge. Also, try to avoid posting too many challenges too quickly, as they should be decently thought out, and if one blows up it's a major pain to deal with, although awesome. I can see three of your challenges on the front page right now, which for less popular challenges means they were posted very close together.
  13. I think it's because that reduces the cargo bay drag, but not the stuff inside it. A few radiators would probably be better.
  14. I'll add you to the leaderboard once I can get to a computer.
  15. I think that a larger fixed gear would be good, but the current ones should stay as they are. Larger ones could use bracing and that stick thing for suspension instead of it being integrated into the wheel well.
  16. I'll add you to the leaderboard once I can get to a computer.
  17. You can get on the leaderboard if you include a picture. I can't think of how to score them. I'll add them if enough people participate, so they can have their own boards.
  18. Also, what do y'all think of a sig badge?
  19. The Hustler was that plane that had a bunch of extra fuel and a nuke in that bottom pod, and when it got over moscow or leningrad or whereve, It would drop the droptank-nuke combo, right?
  20. Let it fly and F3 once it crashes Yup! You can have as many engines as you like. If anything but the wheels touches the ground it's a tail strike.
  21. Airliner Safety Challenge In this Challenge you must build an airliner that fits in one of the four categories, each category has it's own scoreboard: Light: 2-16 passenger Kerbals. Medium: 17-32 passenger Kerbals Heavy:32-64 passenger Kerbals Super-Heavy: 65+ Rules: No excessive clipping (Clip any structural parts you want, no fuel tanks into fuel tanks, keep passenger cabins mostly intact). No Cheats (Duh). A passenger Kerbal is defined as a Kerbal that is contained within a crew cabin without control capabilities. The extra crew in the Mk3 cockpit are considered flight attendants, and it has a scoring bonus to reflect this. You can also add extra (more than two) cockpits to get in on those sweet, sweet flight attendant points. Any plane must have at least one Kerbal piloting it. Heavy and above planes must have two pilots. No floating parts. I love offset, but at least stick a strut on there. Mods are allowed, but no cheaty ones. No staging. No VTOL. No parachutes (Except for a single drouge if you really want) Your plane may leave the atmosphere, but cannot orbit. your plane cannot contain any rocket engines, and if RAPIERS are included, a screenshot must be provided of all oxidizer drained in the SPH You must have at least one clear picture of your plane. Electrical or otherwise infinite range aircraft do not have their range included in the scoring. You must submit pictures of your plane. At least one inflight. You must calculate your own score. Scoring: Bonus points: Your plane cannot tailstrike no matter how hard you pull up on takeoff (20 points) Your plane stalls at less than 50m/s (5 points) Your plane stalls at less than 30m/s (20 points) Your plane stalls at less than 25m/s (30 points) Your plane stalls at less than 20m/s (60 points) Your plane does not need SAS to fly stably (20 points) Your plane does not need trim adjustment to fly straight and level. This only stacks with the non SAS points. (10 points) Your plane can fly on 50% of its engines (20 points) Your plane can fly on 66.6% of it's engines (5 points) Your plane can fly on 33.3% of it's engines (30 points) Your plane can fly on 25% of it's engines (35 points) Your plane can belly land with all crew and passengers surviving (20 points) Your plane can belly land without damage (40 points) Your plane has airbrakes (10 points) Your plane can ditch in the water with all crew surviving (10 points) Your plane can ditch in the water with no damage (20 points) Your plane is a seaplane (20 points) Your plane is an amphibious seaplane (10 points, stacks with above) Your plane can take off and immediately land back on the runway without turning around, and is heavy size or above (10 points for large 20 points for super-heavy) Your plane has a way to jettison fuel without speeding up (10 points) Your plane can fly on any two engines. Simple fuel and air systems: your plane has all fuel tanks and air intakes in the same stack as an engine (10 points) Point malus: Your plane can lose controllability due to fuel shift (-20 points) Your plane needs the end of the runway to take off (-20 points) Your plane can break up due to aerodynamic forces (-20 points) Your plane can melt itself if left at full throttle. (Saftey feature if both pilots fell asleep) (-10 points) Your pilots do not have a clear view out the aircraft-I.E. windows are covered. (-10 points)' Your plane solely relies on alternators on the main engines for power (-10 points) Your plane contains an RTG or nerv engine (passengers don't want radioactive death leaking) (-20 points) Your plane needs all of it's engines to fly (-20 points) Base scoring (Subject to change): Max speed+(max distance/10)+((Max passengers*5)*1+(number of flight attendants/2))+Bonus points Example: 300+(5000/10)+(32*5)*1+(2/2))=1120 Leaderboards: Light: @Calmlamma: 7854.9 points! @zolotiyeruki: 5555 points! @DoctorDavinci: 3485.6 points! @pro100kerbonaught: 2538 points! @timzim817: 1907 points! @timzim817: 1867.82 points! @qzgy: 1,853 points! @tetragon213: 1586.7 points! @roboslacker: 1139 points! @bEAstmode: 830.5 points! @HamnavoePer: 587 points! @EpicSpaceTroll139: 300 points!

  22. I SCORED A DATE!!!! WOOT! The issue is that I don't exactly have time to launch the micro refineries . If someone could send them to laythe would thank you almost as much as the girl who would go on a date with me. They are currently glued to a copy of the vall refinery launcher, but you can stick something else on if you want. Project Babylon Reboot Save File Repository Calendar.
