OK, you won Eve. Now we want to see a nice video of the grand tour. And if you still won't get bored of the game after this, then you win this game :-)

Thx. First I tried it with a regular kerbin orbit, but I just lose too much deltaV due to inefficient navigation. That's where you get the benefit by using mods.

I tried to switch between jetpack mode and normal mode, because I experienced that Kerbals woudld survive impacts better. I don't know if it is a bug and it just works in the transition or if it's better in jetpack mode generally. And you may notice that he impacts with 70m/s surface speed which is quite a lot, but the vertical speed is just above 10m/s which is not that much impact force due to the low gravitiy. So it should be at least kerbal realistic haha :-)

Hi there, I filmed my contribution to a challenge, where you had to go to Minmus with less than 30 parts. However, less parts are always better, so I decided to go with the minimum, which should be 2 ;-) I drop the video here, cause I think it turned out quite well, and it's just 3.5 minutes which everyone who's intrested should have :-)

As promised: my 2 Part (Stock) contribution as a handy little video: Older players are invited to remember about the old KSP days, where you had not a single navigation possibility in EVA mode :-)

Damn, just did it with 2 parts as well and now I'm not even first. However I did it without any mods. Would you be able to do it without them too? (Will upload a vid soon btw)

Nice to see that somebody else is caring about the look of his tower. Yours looks really amazing, good job. Must have taken a while already in the VAB ;-) The problem is that's where the high part count is coming from. The pieces are just too small. Realized that with my design as well. And like I wrote (and showed in my attempt ;-) ) the key is docking the pieces on the ground to eleminate the shaking. I might go for another try to beat your numbers hehe ...

Thanks a lot :-) Haven't done this before with such huge crafts but it still works ;-) But doing this e.g. on the mun with limited fuel is the real challenge ;-) (Which I did with smaller crafts :-D )

Yeah, during the construction I noticed that everything is much more stable than I thought. I went too much for a realistic and nice tower design instead of just stacking the biggest parts :-)

After 17 hours of uploading there is my entry in form of a video. Still very long and not that entertaining, but therefore it shows everything well detailed. Hope that one not properly docked stage won't keep me from getting accepted. To stand on top of the tower is still very safe ;-) I put some times of interest in the video description, so you don't have to watch it completely.

I guess part count is anyway the only real limit on this challenge, cause minmus has such low gravity. The solution here is definitely docking on the ground as smooth as possible. And it's kinda easy cause it's nearly the same as in space. Once your good enough at this you can stack until you can't stand the slideshow anymore ;-)

I'm just on 79m right now. Already very close to slideshow gameplay. But I will go 120+. So be prepared.A video will come ;-) OK, saw the 153m entry after me and realized that my construction is much stiffer than I thought. So let's see how far I come above 150m ;-)

Hey, already some time ago, I did my attempt to this challenge in half an hour after work cause I was curious about how hard it would be. Without having my video editor functioning right now I decided to still upload my raw footage cause someone may be interested. I managed to put a Kerbal in Orbit, so it's the easy goal with a slight touch of hardcore mode ;-) If I add a launcher to this, I might be able to go for a real hardcore mode attempt. However my pc will go hardcore crazy then as well :-)

Hi guys, and happy new year! I tried to build some fireworks in KSP and put together a short video. Sadly Windows 10 has taken my usual video editor from me, so I had nearly no edit features, and there isn't even commentary text in it. However, it should be good enough to enjoy some explosions, if anyone feels like it ;-) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T0AlKzZlZJo

Hey guys, yesterday I finally finished my video about one of my favorite crafts after 1.0 release. It is a two stage to orbit spaceplane but fully recoverable. It is fully stock and only needs tech level 4 plane parts and full tech level 3, as well as only level 1 buildings. So very useful for career mode. Costs for orbit with a recovery mod are only 766 funds. I don't know if you can do this cheaper with this tech level. I'm glad to hear what you think about it ;-) . Here's the video (with some further information):

Ofc turbojets are overpowered too, but if you stop using them, it gets impossible anyways. And on big crafts (>100tons) ion engines need still awesome much burntime or many engines and even more solar panels. I really just wanted to know if there are well known designs in the forum I should check out. But by now, the most helpfull answer was indeed the link to google ;-)

Well, like i heard they tested their enginge succesfully already. And with ion engines you add the unrealistic amount of energy you get out of the solar panels. But let's say i don't just want to take a normal SSTO and put some ion engines and solar panels on. That's just no challenge.

Because imo they are way more overpowered compared to reality than, the jetengines. The SABRE engine is quite powerfull in reality too.

Well, I nearly just find designs which are using cheats, which I mentioned before. The "Joovian VIII" is quite good. But I still would like to see a more realistic one. And no ion engines. They are cheaty too.

Hey, did anyone of you design a spaceplane which is able to go to laythe, land there, and then return to kerbin? I set myself the rule to build as realistic as possible, so i don't spam wings, control surfaces, SAS, and especially intakes. I would like to know if it is possible at all, with these restrictions. For now my best spaceplane is able to escape Laythe.

Hey, I just took a shower and had to think about KSP (nerdalert xD). Sometimes I feel like the whole game how it is now, and will be after release, is just a demo version (including mods). I mean if you would ask me, I definitely would say KSP is the best game ever, but in my imagination there are endless possibilities and ideas how the game could be many years later. I really just hope the game will be improved after release for a very long time. I don't know, I just had to write this down and share my thoughts

Hey, I made a christmas video too. You can download all crafts which are in there. So watch, download, and have fun

Hey, I made a whole christmas video, and you can download the crafts used in it. So watch, download and enjoy ;-)

Yeah to build it in stock smaller reindeer are hard to build. More reindeer makes all more laggy. And Kerbals just like big machines

Hey you awesome people who play the best game in the world, I built a really nice Santa Sleigh for my Christmas video, and because it's Christmas I share it (in all versions and a house) with everyone. The link is in the video description. Merry Christmas
