Launches and simulations, hardcore mode
RandomGuy5040 replied to Psycix's topic in KSP1 Suggestions & Development Discussion
Usually, before a launch I just call whether a flight is a simulation or an actual mission. If it's a simulation, I'm allowed to revert; otherwise, I must deal with the consequences. -
I don't believe Danny2462 has a KSP Forum account, but I know for a fact that Kerbals can indeed pitch, yaw, and roll - there are just no keys bound to those actions. Thus, if one had an external controller, a head-down landing should be a cinch. I'll go test this theory immediately, and post the results. EDIT: There are indeed bindings for pitching, yawing, and rolling the Kerbal, but they seem to do nothing in-atmosphere...

PSA: You CAN play Steam version WITHOUT running Steam
RandomGuy5040 replied to freedomispopular's topic in KSP1 Discussion
Ah, great idea! But why stop there? If you're purchasing a decently sized SSD as a secondary drive, you might as well move your Steam install and other games to it, giving all your games blazing-fast load times. ... I think I have an SSD lying around. Be right back. -
You may have to watch your launch window from now on...

We can\'t post explosions on this forum?! But... but... KSP is all about explosions :\'(

So something really crazy just happened!

JEB: Alright, we\'re heading home. Another successful Mun mission! High fives all around! 8) BILL: Wait, what is that on the radar? ??? BOB: Unknown object approaching! Distance is 300m and closing. BILL: We have visual - it\'s our communications satellite. > JEB: Okay, got it. Distance? BOB: Distance is 150m. ??? JEB: Bill, activate SAS and point us in the opposite direction of the satellite. Tell me when you\'re done. 8) BILL:Got it. ??? BOB: Distance 100m! We\'re gonna crash! BILL: I hope this works, Jeb... fire! JEB: Firing! JEB:...We\'re at zero fuel. RCS is shot too. Distance, Bob? 8) BOB: AAHHHHH!!! JEB:... Bill? BILL: AAHHHHH!!! JEB: Fine, I\'ll do it myself! *shoves Bob out of the way of the radar console* JEB: Distance 50m. We\'re still closing. ...Crud. JEB: Distance 40m. I guess this is the end. JEB: Engineering, it was great working with you. This rocket gave us a smooth ride. :\'( JEB: So this is how it ends. Brace for impact. *dink* JEB: Huh? ??? JEB: We\'re 20m from the satellite... and rising! BILL: ...what? BOB: We\'re OK! JEB: Good to be with you guys still. The engine slowed us enough to prevent a fatal impact. 8) BILL: We\'ve sustained damage. We\'ve lost an RCS thruster, and the fuel tank is ruptured. BOB: The fuel tank\'s empty, we\'re fine! We\'re fine! JEB: We\'re entering the atmosphere now. We\'re home, guys. We\'re home. 8) -
I'm new - What Mods can work together for more parts?
RandomGuy5040 replied to jakecourtney's topic in KSP1 Mods Discussions
I\'d recommend NovaPunch for sure, and it\'d be worth your time to checkout the C7 Flight/Aerospace packs. If you have the full game, make sure to visit the Plugins section, as there are many cool things there. Mod compatibility is usually a non-issue, so you can stuff a ridiculous amount of parts into your KSP folder. In most cases, the only limit on the amount of parts you can have is your computer. -

Woo! Holonomic rovers on the Mun! I am going to have way too much fun making a lander that drops, say, ten rovers at once. ;D
