Moved thread to the Gameplay Questions section of the forum.

Welcome to the forums JANXOL. New accounts need to have 5 posts approved by a moderator before the approval requirement is lifted. You're almost there.

That's a nice looking spaceplane Thomato. I'm not sure exactly what happened, but the URL for your imgur page was garbled a bit. I've gone ahead and edited it so it'll work. Glad to have you aboard, and welcome to the forums!

Merged three very similar threads by the same user into this one. Carry on.

Is it December already? It is? I guess that means it's time to round up some new threads of the month! And a big thanks to @Geschosskopf for joining the moderators in nominating December's threads. First on the list, follow the continuing adventures of the Ussari Union as @CatastrophicFailure chronicles their exploration of @Galileo's Planet Pack! Chock full of spectacular vistas, increasingly "daring" contraptions and gut busting humor, this one's sure to keep you on the edge of your seat. Just don't read it with a mouthful of coffee. . .you have been warned. Next up we have a true labor of love, a collaboration between @eorin and @Exothermos to create a high accuracy replica of the SR-71 Blackbird. The end result is nothing short of beautiful. Also from The Spacecraft Enchange, @Castille7 introduces us to the exciting world of Kerbal Kayak Racing. It's as wild (and entertaining) as it sounds. Cassini may have said its final goodbye, but @Rus_1952 takes us back to Saturn with an RSS cinematic of an airplane mission to the ringed planet! Finally, have a seat at the table with @Avery616 and ask yourself, what are you thankful to have in KSP? And thanks again to @adsii1970 for providing the Thread of the Month badge. That wraps things up for this month. As we roll forward into the winter months (where did the sun go?), please remember to keep an eye out for threads that you think would make good threads of the month! Go ahead and use the report button, and put "Thread of the Month" in the comments box. That way your nominations will go out to the entire moderator team at once.

Some comments in this thread have been removed or edited. Please remember to be courteous to each other, and in the future if you see something that looks like a personal attack or insult, we'd appreciate it if you could just hit the report button instead of responding directly. Thanks all. Carry on.

I tried putting the word "Procedural" into a forum topic search and came up with the following. . . Procedural Wings Procedural Pods Procedural Parts Procedural Fairings Procedural Test Weights There are likely a few others, but hopefully that's enough to get you started.

Well, you'd need a bit more than that, but. . .sure, why not? HAVOC looks like a real E ticket ride.

Probes to Eve. Stations around both Kerbin and the Mün. A crewed expedition to Duna! The wheels of progress turn ever forward, and as the sun sets on another day, the scientists and staff at the KSC turn their eyes towards the next great set of achievements with willing minds, eager hearts. . . . . .and grumbling stomachs. Tired of losing precious kerb-hours to silly things like "meal breaks"? Sick of paying overhead for empty work stations three times a day? Want to keep your operation hopping from sun down to sun up? Turnkey Industrial is proud to introduce the Supplemental Nutrition and Calories Kart! The SNAC Kart glides smoothly on four independent electric motors, and each wheel has its own pneumatic suspension system, giving the vehicle an exceptionally smooth ride. Solar powered by day, and with ample reserve power for after dark deliveries, the SNAC Kart makes sure your hard charging team can recharge their own batteries without ever leaving their desks! Current regulations require vehicles such as the SNAC Kart be operated by a properly vetted KSC employee while on space center grounds, and Milbal Kerman has been volunteered to help us conduct this critical operation! "You want me to deliver sandwiches?! I have a doctorate!" We're not sure what that is, but we've been assured it's not contagious. And boy, we sure know Milbal can hustle! Isn't that right Milbal? "I am one standard deviation away from going delta distribution on you! On all of you!" See folks? Milbal already knows the ins and outs of distribution! The calls have started coming in, and the snacks have started going out! Here we see Milbal heading back towards the complex after delivering some sandwiches to a pair of workers performing maintenance on the runway's landing lights! "There are no landing lights! There are no lights out here period!" Here we see Milbal heading back towards the complex after calling security to investigate the strange kerbals skulking around the end of the runway! Next stop, Mission Control! Lots of coffee and donuts on this order. This is where they review the contracts for the center, including ours. Maybe a few extra packets of sugar will sweeten the deal! A communotron 16 antenna keeps the vehicle in contact with our dispatch center, which lets Milbal continue making deliveries for as long as the batteries last! The SNAC Kart makes a stop at the space center's launch pad, where a group of actual workers are performing actual maintenance on an actual light! The materials bay on the Kart's back end allows Milbal to gather data as he makes his rounds, while also keeping the coffee and donuts piping hot! Why the suit? Well, he's in and out of that bay an awful lot. He. . .might cut himself on the louvers! Milbal passes coffee up to some inspectors working on the VAB's kerosene tanks. But while he can get the cup tray up the concrete lip, several armloads of sandwiches prove to be too much for him. Not to worry though! The SNAC Kart successfully mantles the platform, and now the workers can carry on without having to take a break! I'm sure they'll thank us later. Milbal drops off several buckets of something called "Swedish meatballs" at the tracking station. We're not exactly sure what those are, to be honest. We suspect the truth of it might drive us mad. And speaking of mad, it seems the climb to the work stations inside the tracking dishes is too much, even for the SNAC Kart. They will have to wait for another day. Next stop, the astronaut complex! You'd think with most of the flight roster off planet on various missions there wouldn't be much activity here. But you'd be wrong! Poor Milbal's arms are about to fall off. . .that Jeb fellow sure can eat! We make a quick stop here to drop off a sad little order of bread and water to a kerbal trying to take wind measurements from the top of the flagpole. We're not sure what he did, but the poor fellow certainly looks like he could use a break. He's not likely to get one however, thanks to the SNAC Kart! "Hey! Hey you down there! You tell Kinsey I've finished measurin'! Dang it, this ain't funny any more!" And speaking of people who look like they need a break, Milbal is looking a bit greener than usual. Not to worry Milbal, all you have left to do is make your deliveries to the R&D Compl. . . Oh. Well. We watched you run all the way in from the grasslands, I'm sure you'll be fine. Finally, the last stop at the R&D Complex. We swear, every time we turn our backs, another building goes up over there. With the science food locker nearly empty, one final call comes in to dispatch. You can do it Milbal! We don't think anyone actually knows what this building is for. It's said no one ever goes in, and no one ever comes out. Repeated knocks on the door produce only strange, harsh whispers, and then silence. Milbal sets the food on the stoop and backs away slowly. And here we are, back where we started! With sunrise still about an hour away, the SNAC Kart has been running on its batteries this whole time. Still about 25% charge left too. Not bad, if we do say so ourselves! Three cheers for Milbal folks! I'm sure after some sleep and a few donuts he'll be ready to go again tomorrow evening! In the meantime, he should have plenty of time to go see a doctor about that ailment of his. "But I am a doctor!" Of philosophy Milbal. Of philosophy. SNAC Kart successfully recovers 185 unique scientific experiments from around KSC, in addition to crew reports transmitted from each visited biome. These include temperature, pressure and seismic scans, mystery goo and material bay observations, EVA reports and surface samples. I was only able to retrieve EVA reports and surface samples from Tracking Station North and South. I did not cover the Space Plane Hanger Round Tank, Tanks, and Water Tower, as these biomes do not exist yet. I was also unable to cover the VAB South Complex, as this biome was lost when the VAB was upgraded from tier II to tier III. 821 science points recovered for zero funds.

Moved to Gameplay Questions.

I love BTSM. I have an old version for KSP 0.23.5 that I still play and enjoy. Unfortunately, there was an incident with the forum a while ago that erased an entire page in the mod release thread, and BTSM was one of the mods effected. As far as I know the mod developer did not repost the mod. It's also worth mentioning that BTSM was released as "All Rights Reserved".

Removed some political content from this thread for 2.2b violation.

As the reupload is now complete, I've gone ahead and moved this to the "Tutorials" section of the forums.

Granted, it's been a very long time since I've put a computer together but. . .that seems like gross overkill to me?

As a reminder, let's try to avoid disparaging each other's choice of hardware. Whether we're on Mac OS or Linux, Xbox or Playstation, we're all here because we love KSP. Most of the time. I'm running the game on Windows 10, through the Steam store. I'll probably pick up a copy for my PS4 once the patch goes live.

Moved to the Add-on Discussions area of the forum.

Moved this to the Gameplay Questions area of the forum. I've never actually tried it myself, but as far as I know your craft will overheat and explode long before you can get anywhere near the "surface".

Done.

The seems like a useful observation. . .I know I'm usually stuck "eye balling" it, with somewhat mixed results. I'm going to move this over to the Tutorials section, where it should be easier to find long term. Welcome to the forums Bathalas, and thanks for the heads up.

I've gone ahead and moved your post to the relevant area of the forum. I was waylaid November 13th, 2017.

Unfortunately, as you pointed out, we've had to close this thread once before due to the number of violations it produced. Since that is unlikely to change, I'm going to go ahead and lock this thread. Again.
