Mat2ch Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 I just finished the HypeBus. You'll see it and iterations of it from now on once in a while And yes, it really drives like a bus... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmashingKirby148 Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 What did I do? Well, I delivered a fuel tank to my Mun Base. It was very painful.Why? Well, I realised that it didn't have any way of lifting it self, so I used a kerbal to lift it. Only to realise he wasn't strong enough, I used KAS to move some extra landing legs onto it. That worked, but it was slanted and wouldn't dock. So I reloaded a quicksave in search of another possible way only to realise (that I say realise alot) that quicksaving breaks docking ports. The two ports wouldn't dock, and I spent ages trying to find a way. So I got my kerbal on top of the fuel tank just so he wasn't in use. Well, he will never be in use ever again, because when I reloaded the quicksave, he sank in, yes, SANK IN to the tank all "Casper the ghost" style, and *poof!* He freaking died.....With 41 (now 42) kerbals killed, I feel so guilty I will most likely have to restart the game.

G'th Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 Update on my previous post:The completed redesign of Freedom. Still lacks a couple components, such as the other Canadarms, experiments, various bits and bobs to be done in-orbit, and the truss extensions, but it's practically complete. And the large centrifuge module does actually behave as such. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tw1 Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 (edited) Is that Scatterer? That looks really nice!Yep. Got scatterer' date=' and E.V.E. running there. BTW, your station there is also looking pretty cool.I broke the game.... again....http://imgur.com/a/4njrkI hope you insured that space center, looks like it's being swallowed up by Kerbin. Also, welcome to the kerbal forums!With 41 (now 42) kerbals killed, I feel so guilty I will most likely have to restart the game. T^TNo! You must not let their sacrifice be in vain! I say press on, it's what they would have wanted. Edited June 13, 2015 by Tw1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuky Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 today I lost my station that was on its way to Duna. It was just coming to mid-course correction burn and I switched to it. It all went blank for a few moments, and when everything reappeared I only had stuck HUD and that space background. When I went back to KSC I had only space background with no planet or KSC or anything. I have restarted the game, everything works but station is no more visible in tracking station.

Justicier Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 Working on a more refined version of my Buck Rogers "Thunderfighter". This one is less parts, looks a bit cooler, and has less drag... it is now (barely) SSTO capable. At least, I say "barely" because I am running deadly reentry, and thus far I have yet to strike a balance between going too fast and burning up on ascent, and using essentially ALL fuel reserves just to get into orbit.Also due to some tweaking, takeoff is much less likely to rip off the lower stabilizers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jouni Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 I returned to my old hobby of designing standardized launch vehicles. It quickly became evident that raising the target orbit from 120 km to 600 km leads into more interesting designs.This rocket can lift around 40 tonnes to a 600 km orbit, while leaving no debris behind. The Mainsails and the Skipper have only 50% of their normal gimbal range, so the rocket will follow prograde nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justicier Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 One other "little" side project... 8x LVT-30 and 3x LV-N exploration vessel... it may look familiar...Now, would anyone like to throw some suggestions my way as to how to get this thing into orbit other than hyperedit?

Nansuchao Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 With some tweaking, you'll be able to build this in orbit... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randazzo Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 Launched the Propulsion module of my Sarnus vessel into orbit and began fueling operations.And then crashed a fuel shuttle from Minmus into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justicier Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 (edited) With some tweaking, you'll be able to build this in orbit...Most likely that will be what I will have to do... if I split it up into 2 parts I should be able to make a heavy lifter capable of making it happen. That engine section is going to be really difficult though.Crazy thing is, I had originally intended it to be an SSTO propelled by RAPIERS Edited June 13, 2015 by Justicier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would transfer it into the VAB, flip it so that the cockpit / bridge is pointing up, then attach lifter sections to the docking ports on the sides and heavily strut them up. Nice work btw. Now where is my ISD? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrooperCooper Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 In preparation of the first Kerbalnauts landing on Duna, the KSA launched its attempt to deploy the 44 ton Habitation Rover on the surface of the red planet.

Geometrization Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 I am beginning my exploration of the Joolian system by sending a single launch rocket that brought a satellite, a small rover, and a floating probe to Laythe. I felt pretty proud of that. Besides that Joseph Kerman finally returned from his trip to Gilly and back, and I returned Valentina with Kerby Kerman. (Which by the way is a pretty epic name). I got a contract to return Kerby to Kerbin from orbit of Duna, but after I launched on the voyage to save her I noticed that Duna's moon, Ike, slingshotted her ship out onto solar orbit. So I had to do my first solar rendezvous which was actually very fun! A pretty good day in Kerbal Space Program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidereus Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Built a large orbital fuel refinery/space station destined for Ike:Javascript is disabled. View full albumThe station consists of three different vehicles: a resource scanning satellite (because I didn't bother sending one first), a robotic surface mining rig, and an orbital station that has the ISRU and has a Mk3 passenger module, so it has a 16 Kerbal capacity. It has one Docking Port Sr., two regular docking ports, and two Jr. docking ports. It's powered by a single skipper; I didn't really feel like dealing with LV-Ns, since the skipper alone will get it there and has a reasonable TWR.
