Firstly, let's use my Near Kerbin Asteroids mod.

Next, KW Rocketry.

Finally, three players, as there are three launch sites.

[The Minmus Derp]

1. Sure!

2. no. But there is Making History DLC.

[Alaygrounds]

so we need one more player.

okay

you can make a discord account though

 

also, procedural parts

I want to be the desert site btw

wait we can't use my NearKerbinAsteroids

We can use Kluto though

[KerbolExplorer]

How will this work?

With Lunamultiplayer?

Either way sign me in!

You are signed up! It’s just this: I do something, I give the save file to you, and repeat for everyone.

[The Minmus Derp]

I have an idea: everyone has kerbal konstructs and everyone launches from different places. also, @KerbolExplorer, you are signed up!

[TheLoneMartian]

I'm up for it. I might be able to server host (DMP), and make a discord server

[Ultimate Steve]

Assuming we are still doing this, I would like to be in if the modded experience is unique enough. I am open for savefile sharing but we could also do our own saves and post updates every so often ingame time. As far as the mods go, are we leaning towards a realism angle or for somethibg more vanilla? If we are not doing save sharing I would suggest KCT to spread the launches out.

It's save file passing around. Quicksaves ALLOWED

Ohhh, It is... Also, I am toying around with having people build launchsites using KK.

I think I wan't to play, but I don't know how.

OPM. And a navigation mod.

[The Minmus Derp]

Okay. OPM, Kerbol Origins, KER, other mods

[Ultimate Steve]

Okay, so we're doing a shared savefile...

Is this going to be career mode? Or roleplay-ish sandbox? If it is career I could foresee problems with everyone sharing the same tech tree. And contracts.

Are we each going to alternate missions? Or have a certain amount of ingame days per turn? If it's the former sometimes years could pass between missions, but if its the latter, people might end up warping past other people's planetary encounters.

 

Either way, I vote we include Kerbal Alarm Clock. With the emphasis on information, I would be glad to have Transfer Window Planner in as well.

And isn't Kerbol Origins close to the same thing as OPM? I think we should only use one, otherwise we'll have several sets of 2 gas planets occupying the same orbit. I'd vote Kerbol Origins because I've never played with it before but I could go either way.

And if we're doing stuff with these outer planets, BetterTimeWarpContinued is a necessity.

Visual mods shouldn't affect anyone else and can be installed as-you-wish.

And we're using the DLC as a part pack? Or are we going to try something else?

 

EDIT: And you say space race, I'm assuming it will be competitive. What should be the end goal?

Well, It can be both competetive and cooperative. Ex. Cooperative: Let's all build a space station! Ex. Comptetive: Lets see who can get to sarnus first!

Not to press/pester/annoy you, but I believe the other issues I brought up need to be addressed before we begin.

Science mode. I'm thinking both. urlum and Keelon are actually quite different. and Sarnus and Sarvin. 

Kerbal alarm clock and transfer window planner, and maybe trajectories. Better time warp, DLC, TransKeptunian, and maybe Extrasolar and Other worlds.

Okay. That's certainly a lot of planets to explore!

[The Minmus Derp]

I'm thinking Launch a mission, pass the save file.

[Red Thought]

Don't use mods makes game too buggy.

[The Minmus Derp]

But... Mods are FUN!

[HansonKerman]

@The Minmus Derp, I'm sorry, but I'm not logged into any sort of file-sharing thing. But have fun.

And can we use MechJeb? (if I join?)

For file sharing it should be pretty simple to use dropbox or Google Drive. If you don't have one, they take less than 5 minutes to make and are fairly simple to use.

As for Mechjeb I'll wait for Minmus' response.
