"I've been in the KSP community for so long, I remember X"
Dman979 replied to UnionPacific1983WP's topic in Forum Games!
I've been in the community for so long, I remember @Mulbin's Munbug IX! -
Origninally, ZooNamedGames was Flight Director, but now he's the Astronaut. I took over FD for him, but that left Booster open, and CAPCOM still needs to be filled. If he can't get the forwarding set up, he goes back to FD, I go back to Booster, and we need an Astronaut and CAPCOM. If he can get it set up, then we need CAPCOM and Booster. Basically, back up Booster means taking over the role when I am not there (even if I am in a different station for a particular launch).

Booster is the station in charge of monitoring the launch vehicle from pad rollout until vehicle destruction or recovery. You would need to monitor acceleration, speed, altitude, and other related telemetry through Telemachus and report the information to the flight director. Right now, I am Flight Director and ZooNamedGames is the astronaut, but if he cannot get his port forwarding set up, he goes back to FD and I go back to Booster. (But if someone else can't do CAPCOM, I could go CAPCOM and they could take Booster.)
-
It looks like we are just looking for a CAPCOM and a backup Booster. If you want to be CAPCOM, you need to be able to listen to two conversations at once, perhaps even three, and talk to someone and relay the important information to them. You will need skype, a good microphone and headset, and the standard install for this program. It might also be helpful if you are able to do port forwarding, because you might be called upon to fly the rocket if ZooNamedGames cannot get his set up.

10/10 Nice hat. Also, "Odyssey".

what kerbal rocket parts are actually made of
Dman979 replied to noobsrtoast's topic in KSP1 Discussion
I'm pretty sure they're made up of my hopes and dreams- both them and the tanks went up in flames when I discovered KSP. -
Looks like you could definitely lose some mass there. Try swapping out the RTG with 4 -OX Stat panels, and changing the cone at the bottom to a nosecone with fuel. If you changed the chairs around, you could probably lose a set of RCS, too.

Yeah, what he said. Docking is easy for me, it's the rendezvous that are hard. Welcome aboard! P.S. INB4 @Starhawk

Are we allowed to know if other forumgoers have been banned? I ask because the Real Space Program is planning our next launch, and we need to know if we should find replacements for some members. Specifically, @Gaarst and @Mods_o_joy. Can you tell us anything?

2 Saturn V Apollo craft - Selene mk1 - mk3
Dman979 replied to Majorjim!'s topic in KSP1 The Spacecraft Exchange
@Majorjim Nice work! One minor quibble- the LEM was a prototype. The final acronym was LM, which is what was used in Apollo. -

Awesome vehicle man! I didn't know that @Kuzzter's bloaking device worked for the whole Saturn V! Don't worry @Majorjim, you'll sort it out.
