'Choo-Choo!'

[Pugspaceprogram]

This challenge is considered simple and complex in many ways. Can you built a train in KSP? Scoring will be based on distance etc.

Guidelines:

Using STOCK parts, you must design a choo choo train.

It must be on rails, and move freely.

It has to carry 5 or more kerbals. The more kerbals it is capable of carrying the more points it will get. See the scoring system.

Can be any size

Rules:

Stock parts only

Must carry over 5 kerbals.

Has to travel AT LEAST 3600 meters (distance of runway from start to end to start.

Scoring system:

Accepting challenge - 10 point

Engines are overrated - 20 points

Steam train - 30 points

+ 1 kerbal = +1 point (7 kerbals = 2 points, 8 kerbals = 3 points etc.)

Working (safe) tracks - 50 points

I'm a little baffled by this. The train must both be on rails, and move freely? And how exactly are we to construct 1800 m of rails out of stock parts?

Maybe he wants us to make it LOOK like its on rails? I dunno.

Have you tried this, OP?

It seems ok, but somewhat questionable. I think you should make it a little more specific.

As i am not a mod, i can't instuct you to do so, but i also suggest you read the challenge submission guidelines (once more) to get a full idea of what to post. Thanks! - Pugspaceprogram, leader of Team Pug.

Thats what inspired this.

Also. The rails DO NOT have to extend all the way track, it only has to extend the first few meters (roughly distance of SPH) and still be able to drive freely. I humbly suggest Docking ports.
