Human Person

time to place my all time favorite mod into my new 1.4.1 install! Thank you @linuxgurugamer

These models are so gorgeous, thank you for this wonderful mod! Can’t wait!

I tried this, but the value still refuses to surpass this threshold.

wait what? the F1 is worse than the Mainsail?

I'm trying to create a rescue mission from a solar orbit near Kerbins Orbit, but when creating the spawning node, I can't set semi mayor axis to values greater than 2616000000 (wich is way inside Moho's orbit).

also a red band to snip with giant scissors, opening the way to the button. Edit: and a cushion for the scissors carried by penguins. perhaps this is why we're waiting

so how does this work, squad wakes up, goes to the office and pushes a big red button labeled "release DLC"?

lol, what kind of thread is this, there's already a subforum called "challenges and mission ideas", you know!? I think even Matt Lowne would look there. Apart from that, he seems more like the reddit guy.

The easiest solution would be to use science mode and make sure only the essential parts have been unlocked in the tech tree. The best solution is the DLC which will be released today. You can make custom missions ion the mission builder (I think you can even specify which parts are allowed) another option would be to make your own mod that contains only the parts you wanted and use Janitors Closet to filter everything else out. Also, don't take this too seriously, let them play around. I'd set challenges in the class like "get into orbit". at least one or two of them will be able to do it and can show the others how.

Not nessesarily, there’s the shielded docking port and the retractable MK1 and MK2 ones. They’re all compatible with the medium sized port. Also you can use the claw

You could have invested the time to tip “sorry for bad language“ and put at least a few spaces here and there. before posting the save file, how about one or two pictures? BTW, welcome to the forums!

Second that. RCS Build Aid is IMO the most useful mod you can have, even more useful than Mechjeb.

It‘s really simple, you can use steam and make an install of previous KSP versions, you don‘t need to play 1.4 just yet. You‘re not entitled to get any mods, be a little grateful! (English is not my first language, was that a correct use of the word entitlement?)

6th Launch: Eve lander probe and Gilly return Mind that I'm still playing without maneuver nodes and with the 30 part limit: Now for the cheaty part: Summary: I did the challenge without using the admin building, without using the science Lab and with only 6 launches (that left the ground). I recovered nearly everything. As soon as I unlocked mining, I started cheating money by converting ore to monopropellant. Here's an album of all my pictures for this challenge: https://imgur.com/a/LA5Ao

That means you have 2M funds and have to do Everything (does your calculation include visiting every anomaly?). That's very ambitious. Probably possible but too much effort for my taste. I'm gonna say you either have to use the admin building or exploit mining.

this is what happens when you get too greedy doing it: I didn't even mine, I just converted ore to Monopropellant. You make 2.38per unit of ore. the craft you see exploding there has 252.000 units of ore and 504 empty monoprop tanks. It would have made a profit of 599760 funds while costing 2.5 million. a slightly smaller version of it didn't awake the Kraken. BTW, it took me 31 launches of converters like this, gradually making them bigger while upgrading Launchpad and VAB to get to this point. I called the Converters Cheaty McCheatface I'll post the Eve and Gilly mission needed to unlock Mining later, have to make the album nice.

Watch me do it. @5thHorseman how do you feel about using mining to make money? I guess I need only one more launch to Eve to unlock it. I will make a save at this point and complete the challenge with mining. Still, I want to know if it is even possible without exploiting mining (I’m having the sneaking suspicion it isn’t as there’s a limited amount of world 1st’s to do).

No Need To Rotate: Duplicates every part in the VAB and turns one of them upside down, so you can use that part instead of having to use the rotation tools or WASD.

I usually aim to hit 45 degrees at 10km altitude. This applies to a medium TWR rocket. When your first stage has more thrust, you can be a little more aggressive, if it has less thrust you have to fly a higher arch. I had a small rocket with 3 thud engines on the first stage and a terrier 2nd stage that could get to LKO with just about 3000m/s. It could get away with hitting 45 degrees at 5 km altitude. also, in order to reduce drag you should fly your turn as smooth as possible. Ideally you give your rocket a little initial sideways nudge and then set SAS to prograde,

Wow, I always felt like getting ripped off in the admin building, wich is why I’m not using it here. Also haven’t used a lab yet, so I’ll pass on that too (have loads of science anyways).

Hmm, why not have a little additional readout that simply sums up all maneuver nodes that have been plotted out?

Nice! I used a bigger version in this mission: Upgraded Tracking. I can do interplanetary without maneuver nodes but I don't want to miss patched conics! 5th launch: Ike and Duna, fully recovered (nearly). A few simple quickloads were involved: This Mission made another 3500 Science and got me a lot of funding as well. maybe I can upgrade R&D to level 3 after the next mission. Funds: 1,2M here're all of the pictures for this challenge: No Contract Career Full Album

Hmm, It's possible to make money from a mining base on Minmus, but it's tedious. Maybe I'll do the cheaty drill at home thing (I know this worked in 1.2.2, has it been fixed in 1.3?) I use Stock Visual Enhancements

4th launch: Mun Arch plus two suborbital hops on the mun Funds: 698k, R&D upgrade here I come Science: a lot

There are words you can't write on the forums, they are replaced by something else. I understand that, but why can't I write the word pedant? [Snip] Since when is it forbidden to talk about german WWII history? this is a perfect example of Political Correctness gone wrong, it's appauling!
