@Just Jim if you remember a long, long time ago.... (Not even sure when either, possible back around chapter 30-40ish)

You mentioned the possibility of sharing the Craft files, is this still a possibility?

If so, I would recommend a KerbalX Hanger; and I'm sure I'm not the only person that would be interested.

Ooh! I second the motion!

EDIT: Yep, I'm pretty far behind on reading posts.

Are you enjoying it so far? What chapter are you on?

I'm LOVING it, to say the least! I'm on Chapter 74, Page 120.

Congrats to SpaceX on the successful launch of Bangabandhu Satellite 1!

Yes. Me too. I also post criticism before I've read the whole story. Ahem:

Finally, I have made it to the end! Wow, not reading the forum for a month or 3 sure creates a lot of work...

I'm so glad you're liking it so far...

Idk... maybe??? There was a time I really didn't want to give everything away, but things change... so let me think about it.

But honestly, I'm not sure it even matters anymore... you guys are making some really good reproductions of your own.... which is really cool.

These replicas are snack-draining work!

As am I, though I wont say by how much. Just look at what you see, and try to make it yourself. If necessary, think as the Jim most likely thought.

Done!

The battery lights are black because of the Indicator Lights mod.

There is a blue glow because of the Planet Shine mod.

I also couldn't get the red glow because in the screenshots, there was no discernible music source light sourse. (I know that the mod was probably Surface-Mounted Stockalike Lights, though. )

And I did it in about... 10 minutes!

Also flute, but I couldn't help but notice the very sneaky means by which you ensured that your video was on-topic.

A "tangent".

Quote

A tangent means something that is very slightly touching the topic. It is represented by a circle, with a line just barely touching it.

-Paraphrasing of my teachers explanation of a "tangent", which for no reason I will give any background info about (e.g. my teachers name, my grade, who prompted the explanation...)

Stock. (However, in the replica of it I just made, it does use that mod, because Jim uses it)

Maybe we just need a challenge for building Emiko Replicas? We could have badges and everything.

[roboslacker]

I think there should be an Emiko replica thread in the spacecraft exchange.

Hmmm... ya know, this may be an interesting idea... but not just for my ships.

There are a lot of good stories and writers here, so I'm thinking more like a sub-forum in the spacecraft exchange for any and all fan-fiction ships, whether they be the real thing, or fan-made reproductions. 

I don't know if enough people would be interested, and before anything, this is something @Darth Badie would have to approve. But if enough writers wanted to share their ships, or don't mind players making and posting reproductions, then maybe something like this could catch on.

Yes. I would make them using Scratch, but I'm sure there are better digital art programs out there. Someone who is good with digital art would make the badges, then,

we post the replicas in the thread, then...

Nice, although I thought the Communotrons were actually  on the Hardpoints.

Hey, I think I'll spend the next six months of my life duplicating @Kuzzter's KSS Intrepid, with all its probes and a complete air wing!

I didn't think anyone would want to reproduce mine either, but these guys seem to be having all sots of fun trying to rebuild my ships...

Just wait, someone will eventually try and tackle the KSS Intrepid!

At least they read yours... you've got a lot of loyal fans who love reading yours and even imitating your characters in their own works. I've read more than a few Kerbfleet knock-offs on the sub-forum...

[Just Jim]

OK, back to other stuff... the side-project we can't talk about still goes strong, along with a couple R/L things, so I'm thinking I'm not going to spend a month trying to put together a long chapter in my spare time, and instead try and use what I already have in screenshots and do one this weekend. It won't be a long as I planned, but I think I have a great way to end it... and it won't take forever to get finished.

Oh no, it's not that I don't think people read my stuff--they do, and I'm really grateful for it. It's that the ship (and boats) were such an absolute beast to design, test, build, fly, assemble in orbit, debug through subsequent KSP versions, etc, etc, that I wouldn't expect anyone else to voluntarily go through it!
