Akinesis

I was planning my first mission out of the Kerbal system to Duna. However, with the saves now breaking I will put on hold all missions. Currently, and as ship-saves will still work) I am trying to get a 're-usable' space shuttle to work. I have one model working (no cargo hold, just a crew transport for my space station), and I am on the cusp of making a larger one with a cargohold. As the new version is larger and heavier, I have had to redesign the launch vehicle. I have gone for a design resembling the actual space-shuttle system. It works very well, but doesn't leave me with quite as much fuel as I'd like once in orbit. So I am tweaking it. That will probably take me up to the release.

Same as this for me. With addition on how to use nodes to get to the Mun, etc. Watching someone doing it made a big difference for me. I look at it that he helped me grasp the basics so I could start enjoying the game faster. I was so excited to get to the Mun and I was getting frustrated on how to actually do it (I'm very impatient like that). I still go back and watch them now just so I can get a taste of KSP when I'm away from my computer! I got a lot to thank Scott for.

I like that. I'm running out of new surnames to put after the Kerbanaughts. That gives me a good reason to stop trying to change the names of them all

Everyone on my crew roster has the surname Kerman......... or is it not a surname? Just curious. I did a search but I have not found any other thread. Is it a blind coincidence that all these dudes successfully applied and they happen to all have the same surname? Do Kerbals breed like rabbits and the CEO of KSP has put all of his children to the perils of the project? Or have I missed something and have just made myself look incredibly stupid?

I was laying on the floor next to my daughters while they were playing in their ball-pit. I picked up one of the balls and started throwing it towards the ceiling and catching it again. I caught myself trying to throw it higher to extend it's 'Apoapsis'...

S'PLOSIONS!!! Lots of them! The debris is still there as a memorial... Edit: it was unmanned, btw...

Bill: We're rolling to the right ever so slightly still. Bob: How slightly? Bill: About two degrees a minute. Jeb: Correcting... how's that? Bill: Hmmm. Overshoot. We're now rolling to the left about one degree a minute. Bob: Engaging ASAS to stabilise the role... Jeb: No, wait- ASAS: FIRE EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111111 *s'plosions*

Ah, the struts solved it! I considered the struts before and gave them a go in the VAB, but I couldn't seem to connect them to the motor. Just tried again and manged to get two of them to hook up. Did a trial and the motor no longer dislodges and does a dance at the bottom of the fuel tank. Many thanks!!!

This is one of the best mods for the game in my opinion. I love it! However, there is the bug which is apparent in the picture below. From my searches, it seems that this has been existing for a while. Is there no fix for it yet?? Or have I missed something? Not only does it send my rocket into an annoying wobble, but it is aesthetically awful http://i402.photobucket.com/albums/pp104/Akinesis/screenshot188_zps80feadb9.jpg' alt='screenshot188_zps80feadb9.jpg'>
