  1. Those look absolutely incredible! Great work!
  2. Might I ask why so magnificent a craft carries such a light armament? I want another ship with a MAC cannon!
  3. Yeah that's what I meant. Sorry if I wasn't clear enough.
  4. What black magic is this!? How do you do RMB-dragging the VAB? Or staging view? What key combination? This is exactly what I'm trying to find out and have been entirely unsuccessful in!
  5. I have to disagree with this on the basis that it would be extremely ineffective if this was true and considering the military considered this as a weapons system means that it would have to work pretty well, at least theoretically. As to its lethality, AFAIK it was generally envisioned as a bunker buster, probably to take out hardened ICBM launch sites. I don't know about their capability to create artificial earthquakes, although the idea seems reasonable, but according to wikipedia Project Thor allowed for a large version which would impact with 11.5 tons of TNT, significantly weaker than a nuclear bomb.
  6. You have some valid points, but the Tiger is not a good argument for German engineering. It was: Too large to be recovered by existing vehicles other than other Tigers. Broke down constantly. Couldn't handle rough terrain. Too heavy to traverse most bridges or through houses for fear of falling into the cellar. Had a slow turret rotation. Couldn't be produced quickly. Inherited the overcomplicated roadwheel design. Building something that's so overcomplicated and beyond your infrastructure is the North Korean approach to a space program, and isn't going to get something into orbit. As a point for the Allies I would like to point out Operation Aphrodite. Building a remote control guidance system using TV cameras is a promising start for guiding a rocket probe, and with the Allies' advances in radar technology with enough funding they could definitely develop a control system that could control the rocket from the ground, not a trailing control aircraft.
  7. I'll shorten my normal rant about armor on KSP ships to this: it's purely asthetic. Sure maybe putting structural panels or whatever they're called might protect you from the lightest of missiles-that-are-really-rockets-but-everyone-calls-them-missiles, but in the end it is very easy to defeat any armour you can put in the game. Therefore, I am supporting your statement with mine own that people debating armor war wasting their time because it has no use. I'm not sure if I should have said all this aloud but I don't want to delete my minute's worth of typing so I will post it. Cheers, PIRATE
  8. Looks very cool! The graphics are very high quality, although just a nice shot showing the whole thing would be great.
  9. What I'm talking about is not zooming the camera in the VAB but making it easier to look at large rockets where parts are very far from the middle of the VAB where the camera is centered.
  10. So I've playing KSP for over a year now and have become aware through HOCgaming and The Solar Gamer's videos that you can pan the camera around while controlling your spaceship (and presumably in the VAB too). Can anyone tell me how to do this? Note: I'm taking about being able to move the camera focus like you can in the SPH. (when you hold down RBM and drag the camera around) PIRATE
  11. I have to break radio silence and say this is awesome because I want to encourage you and make sure you make more! Amazing job!
  12. Normally I'm not one for mods, but my God that is impressive. Amazing job!
  13. Personally, I used to regard part clipping as taboo. Now it is part of my everyday repitoire. I rarely clip much stuff inside of things, mostly just to make it easier to connect stuff, but I really don't care what you use clipping to do. TL; DR Part clipping is not cheating.
