Epic. I wonder how they done it.

By the way, any modeling sofwares recommended? I know the main building can use Blender, but what about terrain model? We are about to learn Rhino months later definitely, but it's a little bit harder than I thought. And it's too complex for Sketchup. And what if I want to make some animation and rendering(real-time). And what softwares you use for record your modeling process? Softwar I been using is not very convenient.

Good idea, but rail outside the pressurized tube will be a fine electric magnet to draw dust. Maybe we can put rail up in the air like cable car, but that might be no use(in 2050) as heavy transport like train on earth. My choice is heavy wheels(which is less path depend, or more flexible), or floating car(if fuel prove to be easy to reproduce). The ridge near is constantly exposed to sun and permanent dark area is not far away. I prefer to let my imagination flow insde reality I imagined. But who knows? Mirror satellites will be more efficient an can also serve as comm satellite, etc. However, I believe a set of on-site tower can relocate the sunlight more flexible. Second thoughts about reactor, I think it will work. But solar-powered is always more economic, before human can use helium-3 on the moon. Robots that need to operate in permanent dark area will need nuclear power, I imagine miniaturized but powerful reactors can be use on robots, but that's not a primary problem architecture concern. Sorry, I am too lazy to check my spelling or grammar.

Thanks you! This remind me an ideas I thought of few days ago (the part MMS): This idea first crossed my mind when I read an article which proposing the use of lasers to sinister lunar regolith. It might be like the prism tower (just cross my head now, or like a prism tank, even better) in Red Alert 2. The focused sunlight when serve as a laser can even sinister a launch pad and pavements with interlocking geometries[1]. Like this: But this concept falls a little bit far from architecture . I always picture the base must be as realistic as possible(The hint is that the website says:"3-6 people, for at least a Lunar Day"), but it's also kind of restricts my imagination. Maybe I am going the wrong way? And also "Hardware Integration" is actually me puncturing an capsule fill with basic devices and people usually don't go in, as the primary core of the base. I thought it will be cool, like some sci-fic. I don't plan to use unclear power as primary source when you can use solar power, By the year 2050 I assume small reactors on the moon is maybe just an verification mission. But a rector still sounds cool. And why five points star? By the way, the "avoid larger ESS" is actually comes from another article[2]. My english is poor, especially grammar, and tons of spelling mistakes too. better read than write. FTFM. [1] Laser melting manufacturing of large elements of lunar regolith simulant for paving on the Moon | Scientific Reports (nature.com) [2]Optimal multi-site selection for a PV-based lunar settlement based on a novel method to estimate sun illumination profiles - ScienceDirect Also, is that anyway to create wind(outside the building) that strong enough to clean up the dust around the building? I have a impractical thought that focus sunlight can generate mild airflow around the building to clean the dust.

You're right, I sound selfish. I am asking here only because I made a foolish comparison between my question and other forum posts regarding gaming and scientific content, and came to the conclusion that this is appropriate, ignoring the 'contest' aspect. But I did not just wandered on the forum and say "My team members do nothing, they have no use. I did nothing, but I'm okay with it". It might sound more selfish but the fact is so far all the things done now are mostly done by me: collecting data, writing files, preliminary design (I really mean it). This makes me kind of angry, for I am the team leader(not a good one, but others don't want to be team leader, and they are one who pulled me into this contest. So far they have helped me register though), I gave assignments but nothing's done(that's why I've done most of the work). We are not a good team, but I don't want to quit the contest now. In fact it's my first time being a team leader for as far as I remember, I really don't have any experience with this. I am open to more advice.

Hi! Its been a long time since I open KSP1. Update process went smoothly with the help of CKAN. I used to spend hundreds hours on the game, and I really enjoyed it. But now that I have been study architecture in university for a year and a half, and it's really busy these years... but anyway, I don't enjoy to play games like I used to be... I signed up for an Lunar station architecture design contest(year 2050, near Shackleton crater), this recalls me many good memories I got from KSP, and I am now try to restart my game, for my design contest, and for fun. Besides, I just sent Songbird to Tycho, and before that I watched David sent Lucy to the moon. And I think I also want to fly myself to the moon. Sorry that I sound Illogical, but let me jump to the subject: I been thinking and collecting concepts about Lunar Station on the moon myself, my team member still havn't provide any useful thing(according one of my teammate:"I think I havn't provide any practical contributions so far"). I have some ideas so far but nothing innovative to myself. Maybe the innovation should be focused on how I put things together, maybe not. And now I am scrolling old KSP memories and I think to myself: Why don't I ask the forum? So here I am, any ideas? I would like to hear any concepts that is possible to apply on a lunar surface base in 2050(I assume at that time human has already reestablish existence on the moon, as far as I know, there are ILRS and Artemis), if you like to tell. Here are all the information aboout the site provide by the contest's website: The Lunar south polar ridge on the left of Shackleton Crater Station Site: Along the Earth-facing slope of the Lunar south polar ridge, along the upper edge of an approximately 800m diameter crater there, facing downslope and toward Earth (which should be occasionally low on the south polar horizon). Station Center Coordinates: 89.45°S, 222.69°E Area Specificities: The ridge along the crater's rim is exposed to almost continual sunlight, while the interior is perpetually in shadow that may indicate the presence of water ice. The landing and launch facilities could be located on the far-side of the south polar lunar ridge line to minimize the risks due to ‘ejecta’ produced during arrivals and/or departures from the settlement. The slopes near the ridge appear adequate for surface mobility to facilitate access by surface transportation to permanently shadowed regions (PSR) where ice has been detected during recent years. In addition, the Earth can be seen over Shackleton Crater. The lunar habitation can not only provide life support but also encourage the idea of exploration. Providing a safe, efficient, and comfortable living space for astronauts has become a pressing objective to be accomplished. The lunar habitation theme encourages participants to design the projects at the lunar South Pole that utilize in-situ resources and innovative strategies, considering the material and spiritual needs under harsh lunar environments, including high vacuum, microgravity, and special rhythms, as well as isolated and confined conditions. Notes: 1. Submit the renderings, technical drawings including plan, elevation, and section, as well as analytical drawings that can explain the concept of the scheme. 2. Provide a self-sufficient and intensive living space that can meet the needs of 3-6 people for at least a complete "Lunar Day". 3. Consider issues such as environmental response strategies, design combined with intelligent construction, and future sustainable development. Here are some photo of my recent design(course homework), if you like to know: And some photo from 2022:

which version work with 1.7.3?

I was wondering if the newest version of Tantares (V21.1) and TantaresLV (V12.1) work on 1.7.3?I don't want to upgrade my KSP vision

My satellites all disapear after install the vision 1.4 of CommNet Constellation;and lots of bugs appearly stop I lunch from VAB and build; Any suggestion?

I had matching the ROkerbalism's context to the deafult one no problem have find now

I have a question.The ROKerbalism on github is design for Kerblism Version3.1,whitch mean no chiness support. What can i do to find a KerbalismConfig for RO and support Kerbalism3.7?

I instaled the RSSVE and the RSS,but it doesn't display auroras or citylight Any solution?

Thanks.And you make a really good job on KSRSS

还有一件事。这是关于[ RSS ]和[RSSVE]的。 我安装了几次，但是RSSVE的显示无法正常工作 https://imgur.com/YAhHKSh https://imgur.com/Mhi5mod https://imgur.com/T47pV2r 如您所见，它没有极光或城市之光 而且看起来很糟糕 我已经安装了我发现的所有图形包。想知道如何使视觉外观漂亮（封面）
