Playing KSP on my school laptop.

[pyropelush]

0.22, 20 fps and ultra ultra low settings. Surprised my laptop hasn't combusted into flames.

How are you all?

A living legend in your own right!

Spoiler

I started with version 0.24 in 2019 at school. 

Can you share specs of your school laptop?

 

[pyropelush]

My laptop can't handle a vessel loading into the launchpad, so I got one of my saves and loaded to my mun landers.
The skybox is so low quality you can actually notice the edges of it. Lol.

If you're curious too, I am replying from my school laptop at school. ;P

Oh, I don't play KSP on my chromebook.

I play it on my PC at home.

(i5 8th Gen, 12GB's of sweet, sweet RAM.)

Oh I know lol. Besides if it was really on chromebooks, it’d run worse than my school laptop.

while ksp is a worthy cause, as a teacher i am somewhat worried by the large amount of people claiming to play from their school. i do hope it's not during lessons...

[SSTO Crasher]

I wouldn’t play on my school laptop for 2 reasons 

1. it is a chrome book so it would not support it.

2. The device would initiate auto self-destruct

I can assure you that this was during some sort of free time, so don't worry. I still learned lol.

I go to an art school and often find myself playing KSP and Orbital Launch Simulator on my laptop during boring art history lecture. Post modernism is so much more interesting when Jeb is crash landing into the Mun. It turns heads in the classroom also, I've put at least 3 of my fellow students on to KSP.

Good job soldier, now bring them to the Forums.

[GuessingEveryDay]

If only my school allowed me to install KSP, I can count at least 15 people who'd be interested, for a variety of reasons ranging from: BDArmory, RSS/RO, or were inspired by Nexter's Lab.

I mean, I'm not allowed to have KSP on the computer but SHHHH.... Don't tell my school staff that I am throwing little green men to the moon and back during History.

Won't tell a soul

this the equivalent of coding a general purpose ai and running it on a chip made from potatoes and prayers to the rain god. 

If I had to guess how this was done I would assume your school has not disabled linux beta and dev mode. because of this fact you were able to install steam and download ksp.

would love to know how you did it correct me if I am wrong

[pyropelush]

I didn’t use steam to install KSP because they have some blocking system for the computers that prevent certain websites to being connected to. I had a copy of KSP 0.22 downloaded directly from DepotDownloader on a USB drive. I just copied the files from there to my Desktop. Yes, I do legally own KSP.

As of 9/30/2021, 8:06 AM with 15 - 20 fps.

I will be challenging myself to get into orbit in KSP on a school laptop.

[pyropelush]

 

Hey there, I'm back.
I got into orbit without exploding. Hooray for me!

I did notice some things happen during my flight, probably due to this PC's processing power.

1. The navball excrements itself and died.
2. Random forces moving me during flight.

That's it really.

Oh, for me back in the day (2 years ago) it was always during free time. I now only play KSP during the weekends at home.
