Throw it on the ground, stomp on it, and then set it on fire? That covers most of my creations, anyway.

"edit <filename>." When you finish, you can save it (F5, I think). To keep it beyond the current flight, use "copy <filename> to Archive." In later flights, you can "copy <filename> from Archive. run <filename>."

Did you really just say that the only difference between the Wright Flyer and an X-15 is that the X-15 is more expensive?

I completely understand and agree with y'all. I was just curious as to the status and wondering if I had missed something that had been posted on some other channel that explained the silence.

I haven't been following in extreme detail, but I haven't seen a new release or any update from the author in a while. Does anyone know if kOS is still being actively worked on?

Why not? It seems to work just fine.

I'd love to see a huge dry lakebed area with multiple runways marked out, like Edwards AFB.

Do my kids count? They pretty much sit there and do nothing. That counts as "inanimate", right? I wouldn't say that's a "sentimental attachment". I've got attachments to objects that I don't see on a regular basis. And y'all don't be worried about stuffed animals. I'm damn near 40, and I've got a couple around here.

I'd suggest checking the release thread: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/56399-0-22-Remote-Tech-2-v1-1-0-November-7-Build-those-satellite-networks!

It really makes sense to me that building a rocket should take time, especially in career mode. It's kind of off-putting to notice that on Day 1, 00:00:00, Kerbkind discovered rocketry, and by Day 3, they're landing on the Mun and Minmus, have a space station built up from 10 separately launched modules, and are starting to construct their first Duna craft.

I've made Jeb unhappy. During re-entry, wait until you're about 100 m off the ground. Right-click, then "Cut Parachute". He actually looked scared. I'm not sure if it's possible to make him scared without killing him, though.

No, you go into the VAB at Day 1, 05:30:00. You spend half an hour building a perfect rocket, and press the launch button. You immediately go to the launchpad and launch your rocket. Except the clock is at Day 1, 06:00:00, instead of Day 1, 05:30:01.

Do Kerbals in a storage can count towards the six, or do they need to be in an actual command pod?

That may not have been valid, but it looks like Scott Manley has taken notice. His recent video description:

So the soylent kerbal dip is right out, then?

I don't worry about it. It's not a finished game, so save-breaking is part of the process. If wiping out my progress leads to a better experience, so be it. Besides, I start over with a new save every time. If I really feel like it, I might copy over a couple of rockets.

I love JSGME. It's great to be able to quickly pull it up, swap out the mods I have installed and go right back to KSP without having to mess with moving files and directories around. It's especially useful with so many mods being in constant states of development. All I have to do is press a couple of buttons to install a new version, and if it's not working correctly, it's just a couple more clicks to uninstall and reinstall the old working version.

So, the liquid water melted, but the ice was unaffected? Fascinating.

It's back! Been looking forward to this day. Aside from: anybody know how well it works with kOS?

Subassemblies. Since someone made a mod for it, Squad will never add it to the game.

Natural resources/precious metals: Are they there? Is it even close to economically viable to extract them? Science: We gain knowledge on how to live and work on the moon. That's great, if we ever come up with a reason to live and work on the moon. Tourism: Is it economically viable? Colonization: Is it possible to create a self-sufficient moon colony in the semi-near future? Is it economically viable to support such a colony? And again: what purpose would it serve, other than national prestige?

I don't see much point in going to the moon at this point. We've been there, we know we can do it again. But there's no purpose to it. Going to the moon will give us knowledge on how to go to the moon better, true. But at the end of the trip, you're still on the moon with nothing to do. If someone can find a viable reason, even if it's nothing more than tourism, then we go back. It's time to set further targets.

I think that would be good to have. Also, a way to list active triggers and a way to clear them would be useful.

That won't be a problem. Without the petrochemical industry, there won't be much food production anyway.

Both of these set up a trigger that will be executed when the condition is met. Then the program ends, and the triggers it set up are wiped out. You can run either of these lines outside of a program, and they should work. Or, you can set up a program such as: WAIT UNTIL ALTITUDE > 69999. TOGGLE AG10. This sets up a waiting condition, and execution of the program will wait until that condition is true before stepping to the next line. (Of course, this means that your program will not do anything else until then. There are other ways to set it up, too.)
