Little unrelated mini poll: who wants a Millennium Falcon mod?

Um... Kart, please tell me your not making a Raptor already. If you say it's a great idea to strap a raptor to a Falcon 1 I will officially quit:sticktongue:

Tris can you respond to Skype plz?

Update: Patch!! Wear this if you do the challenge!! Sorry for the low quality, btw we definitely didn't just spraypaint Santa over Space, right?

Already?? Nice!! Congrats to all y'all Europeans!!

I'm deffiniantly going to contribute to this

Hey guys, I've been thinking of a good challenge to do lately, and watching all of those EJ streams making Kerbin bases gave me the idea for a Kerbin Polar Base challenge! The challenge is pretty simple, build and sustain a base at one of the poles. However, the pieces can not be launched on a sub-orbital trajectory to get there fast. They have to be brought in by planes or ships. Also, crew rotation. No keeping kerbals at sub-zero temperatures for decades at a time. Here's the scoreboard: Base itself: +10 points for each module of base +20 for having a fuel depot +25 for having an ISRU module -30 for using giant rockets to boost you modules there quickly Transfer craft: +15 for using ships instead of planes +10 for using skids on landing instead of wheels +20 for VTOL +5 for horizontal landing Extras: +30 for building a working launchpad at your base, and launch at least one satellite with a rocket launched there rocket +10 for each additional launch -10 for each mod used (kerbal engineer allowed, no mechjeb)

Me likes much

Yeah but i know the (former) VAB director and head technician. He just left NASA and went 2 minutes down the road to Masten.

BTW if you want KSC (Real one) referance pics, i know a guy:sticktongue:

Hey Triston little side thing, can you add my picture thingy to the contributors list? Also if you have some of my textures done could you send them over Skype? Also great work guys!! Will be very hyped when this releases. Any kind of schedule Tris?

Sorry Kart, stuff has been so crazy I guess I forgot how to read😄. School is just crazy. Can't wait for another break so I can do stuff

The one that comes with the mod, or should I just download it from it's thread?

I'm still having the problem where fairings don't seperate. It's every fairing btw

Question: Can I use the warp plugin for my own mod?

Hey guys. I'm very interested in this mod your making. Hows about I let you guys make the RSS version of my CZ-9 and I keep the stock solar system version in my mod? I hink it sounds like a pretty good idea. P.S. I'm working on a Chinese Launch site for another mod, I might hand that over to you guys as well.

If anyone has a good name for the UR-900 thing, shoot. Here's the plan for the mod: Hurricane (EELV thing) Releases, followed by Volcano (Vulkan), followed by UR-900, followed by King Cobra (Jupiter III). Hurricane should release by the New Year at the latest, with 3-4 week intervals between releases.

Could you guys do the Dragon gantry? Also Triston how are my horrible pads coming a long? - - - Updated - - - Dragon is awesome. :-)

Not yet, I'm waiting for Kart's Delta IV to release on his thread, and then I'm working with him to modify that into Delta IX. I think he said 2 weeks on Delta IV? After that, I'd give it another 2 weeks. Note: dates not final

I posted this on the apollo challenge thread. Basically my new expiremental Saturn V was launching, and, well, I forgot struts. The entire second stage and up was wobbling around on a 0.625m decoupled while a huge 3.75m first stage was pusing it upwards at over 2.5gs - - - Updated - - - It immediately smashed into the ground, causing the biggest explosion I've ever seen in KSP. And somehow the LES survived...

Cool sounds good

Any updates for us guys?

- - - Updated - - - (WIP Fairings)

Another quick update: 2nd stage is almost done as far as modeling goes. It's Vulcan Based, but has a single BE-4 instead of 2 to make it more efficient in a vaccum

Yeah, this is a serious beast mode rocket. I'll take that name.
