  1. Banned for probable substance abuse.
  2. Banned for not providing a reason.
  3. So I was reading about one of our friendly Solar neighbourhood ice giants and noticed that it's axial tilt is nearly perpendicular to it's orbital inclination. I then wondered if KSP had a way recreating that, using reference frames or something. Even if the map view rotated depending on what ship you were focusing on. It would be really cool to have tilted planets, methinks. What do you fellas think? Can it be done? Should it?
  4. So... What do you want people to say?
  5. Verily and forsooth. How many boosters does it take for a woodchuck to chuck wood?
  6. Perhaps command pods could no longer provide SAS functionality (still torque, but no correction computer), and their ability to hold a craft on course would be dictated by the crew's stats? That way Kerbals could still operate pilots but without the "point and go" aspect of something like MechJeb.
  7. Except for the diamond-skinned (still carbon based, right?) lobster-crab people, who are plotting to conquer the overworld.
  8. "The passage of time is relentless and unforgiving. The desire to speed up the journey from the cradle to the grave is nothing short of perverted" -said my Dad to me when I was anxious for Christmas to come
  9. When it's finished melting, silly. How to make liquid CO2?
  10. True. I was in a choir. The user below me is fastidious about their laundry.
  11. Banned for having more than 100 posts.
  12. Banned for replying with quote.
  13. Why is it that you want to launch right from the hangar?
  14. I would love if there was a manned space station system that generated science over time, but it needed resupply to stop people abusing time warp. I have a gut feeling that science will become renewable in 0.24 with the new funds and rep.
  15. I'm sure they'll update the aerodynamics before multiplayer at the very least.
  16. My most ambitious SSTO set out to complete the epic task of leaving the runway. And it didn't.
  17. I would be against this concept even if it weren't for the scam-like nature of the project. For a start, solar panels are extremely bad at generating energy at our current level of technology. They're also quite fragile, which means that sticking them in roads where they are exposed to traffic and weather is a terrible idea. Thus for protection they have to be covered in some polymer that requires extensive maintenance and, because it's not 100% transparent, reduces the efficiency of the cells. You'd be much better off installing the things on the roof, something I'd support. And this whole thing about being able to heat up to remove snow? The amount of energy required to do that would far exceed their generation capabilities. I don't like solar power because as people have said, it's pretty pathetic at generating power. That's why I believe fusion power is the way to go for the future, because it's clean and near infinite with an enormous energy load. We should be devoting our resources to developing that, instead of these daft roadways. Until then, stick to fission power, at least for a little while.
  18. It's quite possible. It helps if you have extra torque or a gimbal-ing engine.
  19. My friend and I picked up KSP at the same time, and therefore started competing to see who could get to the mun first. His space program became the "rival" of mine. I liked the thrill of the competition, and I think if an AI opponent were introduced after "scope completion" as an expansion it would definitely enrich the experience.
  20. Most spacecraft are cooled by radiation rather than convection.
  21. If you've been following Scott Manley, he also did a video on how to rendezvous another ship. Good thing is that it's easy around Minmus. There is a two seater capsule, but if you want him home sooner just bung on an extra one man cabin to your rescue ship.
  22. The game is in Alpha. There is no cheating.
