i once read a book (Run to the Stars by Michael Scott Rohan) where the villain preferred a fancy laser pistol intended for discrete murder because: a) it operated silently, b) it had a beam-mode that could slice up corpses for handy disposal, c) it contained none of the chemicals or metal shapes that would trigger the weapon-detectors found everywhere.

pros: the greater mass of the cyborg skeleton, and reduced overall buoyancy, means you will never be convicted of the crime of witchcraft cons: co-workers will inevitably discover that they can place fridge magnets on you

perhaps the suit fabric is woven from super hair? (i.e. the literal hair from super man/woman)

i kinda don't mind the new forum look! it's got some solid retro '90s vibes (tricky to use tho, but that was the style back then, along with wearing an onion on your belt!)

oof... those specs are well above what my potato can handle i guess i'll stick with playing KSP1 for a while longer

interestingly, this is incorrect! while a single, double, and triple rope setup can hold 1x, 2x, and 3x the mass, a quad rope setup can only hold 2x the mass. this is because in real life one rope will always be slightly shorter than the others, which will cause the load to be supported entirely by the short rope and it's opposite, while teetering between the 3rd and 4th rope with no guaranteed lift from either. this is also the reason why 4 legged café tables are always unstable!

here is a link to a pdf version of the Hard Rock Miner's Handbook which may be of interest

This mod is amazing, and is definitely going into my "must have" mod list. Such a simple rearrangement brings common sense to the early game, without unnecessarily changing science or part balance! Bravo @GonDragon

it was interesting to watch the launch footage, does anyone know what was happening around T+76s when the paint began to get stripped of the boosters? also around T+140s you can see something flapping wildly near the base of the booster, is this normal?

found another biome for tier 1 KSC! it's possible to sample "R&D Main Building" by bumping up against the quonset hut nearest to the intended building

i like to do BIG career playthroughs (stations & bases on every planet, hundreds of probe landers and communication satellites, tourists everywhere, etc..) so for the sake of my CPU, and to avoid game breaking glitches, i try to keep my mod count to a bare minimum... so about 30

this looks like a nice new feature! i wonder how long it will be before "lab cleaning kits" and "goo seeds" will be required to reset science experiments? perhaps ISRU will need a "catalyst" to begin processing, or engines will require "ignitors"? so many possibilities...

i voted for Eyeball McEyeballface because... reasons! but i would have also voted for some kerbalised version of iapetus. (eg: kerpetus, iapekus, etc..)

@RandomKerbal holy necro! if you are looking for cool aircraft parts i recommend the excellent mod Airplane Plus
