Gaalidas 266 Posted July 17, 2014 I'm sure the assembly instructions will include a tin full of string, a harmonica, a goat, and someone to stand off to the side gesturing wildly as to why you brought a goat along on a lunar expedition. The harmonica is for keeping the goat entertained.Wow, I don't think I could have put it any better than that.. As for why you might take a goat with you on an off-world expedition... the reason is simple. Why not? Eventually we'll want to colonize the worlds around us, and that means we're going to need livestock eventually. Goats are a form of livestock, so we must find out of they will explode when leading the atmosphere or not.What... you didn't think we'd waste a space suit on a goat did you? What madness is this!?

Starwaster 2,771 Posted July 17, 2014 We're currently discussing SAMOKAT, and yeah, that's an acronym. If anyone can find a fault with that, please don't hesitate to say so. Doesn't bother me, but the Samokatosians of the planet Samos IV might take exception.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sharpspoonful 96 Posted July 18, 2014 PRC -personal recreational craft? Nope! That stands for Portable; Radio Communications!(It's a military joke. Our communications equipment designators always start with A/N PRC-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RoverDude 8,417 Posted July 19, 2014 That's downright pretty I especially like how you made a collapsible version of the command seat.How does it handle? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mihara 381 Posted July 19, 2014 How does it handle?The rover? Well, alexustas posted a test a while ago...http://youtu.be/RHpKCIVCKYQ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boomerang 79 Posted July 23, 2014 (edited) The whole of China in a box?!Seriously though, it looks great!Edit: Is this still in development or are you waiting on a new KAS release? Because some of us do have the .23.5 version of KAS working on 32-bit .24. Edited July 23, 2014 by Boomerang Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Garek 10 Posted July 23, 2014 I think this could use some kind of car jack to make the wheel deployment less...wobbly-springy? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Boomerang 79 Posted July 24, 2014 Yes. i'm waiting for KAS update I understand, but I really can't wait to get my hands on this. All your projects are so damn gorgeous and well-designed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rhedd 58 Posted July 28, 2014 Just so you know, KAS now has an unofficial fix that allows it to work on both 32 and 64 bit.It's not 100% polished, but there are no more explosions and everything works now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alexustas 1,124 Posted July 29, 2014 I’ve installed this patch of KAS for x64 and found it working acceptably, so I guess I can publish a test version of PRC. See OP. I’ll be happy to hear your comments, advice and requests. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dragon01 295 Posted July 29, 2014 Wow. This looks nice. Any chance of an LRV-style high-gain antenna and a KAS box (for carrying instruments and the like) to mount at the rear? This little rover really looks great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sp1989 321 Posted July 29, 2014 I know this is a KAS problem but you can't take anything out of the containers. Just an fyi KAS isn't really fixed yet and although a patch has been made for 64bit the containers are still an issue for no 64bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ozraven 84 Posted July 29, 2014 I know this is a KAS problem but you can't take anything out of the containers. Just an fyi KAS isn't really fixed yet and although a patch has been made for 64bit the containers are still an issue for no 64bit.I can't speak to x64 as it (with more than a couple mods) is unusable for me, to much disappointment. However, on x86, KAS is working for grab, drop, store, attach and take - for me as of last night. In these uncertain times, mileage is certain to vary, however.
