It's a good little engine. You will however sometimes find yourself building a bit of a bigger probe than you would otherwise prefer because you have to pack on all that power generation. If you're using it simply for orbital transfers, the thrust limiter helps. I remember the first Gilly "lander" I built used one, and it worked quite well getting to the surface and all the way back to Kerbin.

May want to get that checked out. It'd be better if it was a hobby, but addictions to spaceplanes generally result in death. I know that @Majorjim can vouch for that.

Guess who's back? ...Wait you got it wrong. Let's mix things up with @sal_vager. More mod streaks pls!

If Nagato tanked two bombs and merely wiped the sweat off her forehead, how many would it take to sink a Yamato? If anything she'd likely be a war prize given to the US, and with the widespread popularity of her, especially now, perhaps they'd consider giving her back to be a museum. That is a museum I'd go to and stay at all day every day inside the barrel. vashischnaushischnaushinaugh

Definitely a very nice looking ship, and powerful as well. Too bad she never got to put those monstrous guns to work. At the very least Japan could have "surrendered" and allowed this beautiful ship to survive. Would've been a sight to see. Although it is likely the navy would have never surrendered until being forced to if Yamato was never sunk or destroyed since she was planned to be beached.

I wonder if it's possible to build a Yamato... And not kill my computer.

Is there a pizza vendor somewhere in here?

Ever since the introduction of Ore and my creation of liquid hydrogen, the only things I have built that went to space were either meant to land on planets and moons to drive around and harvest Ore, or be a test vehicle that never leaves LKO.

Same way Fengist changed hands with me.

Think of how the aero and thermodynamics have changed though. It just isn't fair to compare people of two different game states under the same criteria when the same things wouldn't necessarily work with each other. That's why the Hall of Fame was created.

It's never a workload issue. I just don't think I'm cut out for transitioning between game patches, and I bet there are just loads of people wanting to sit in the big chair, so why not, I ask myself. They'll get the special nametag as well.

ATTENTION Due to recent inactivity, and the fact that the state of Kerbal Space has changed quite a bit I am renouncing my dictatorship administration status to whoever wants to keep running the challenge. Fair and objective judgement is to be heavily exercised, so check for those before you ask. First come first serve when it comes to this. Let the race begin!

From a game design standpoint, this makes sense. No Man's Sky however, is more of an experiment, so do try to cut it some slack if you already haven't.

I'm gonna be a merchant! I like the idea of a travelling merchant. That sounds nice.

From rumors I've heard, larger ships are going to be things like battlecruisers and huge cargo transports.

Teleportation, even in a sci-fi sense, isn't possible. Warp is, granted they are taking a few liberties.

I can kinda see that, but I guess one thing to point out is that conventional methods of propulsion aren't used. It's more of a kind of warp drive thing that's very efficient.

I personally don't think it will be because there's technically no end to the game, although I wouldn't be surprised if there was premium content in later installations depending on the success of it's initial form, which appears to already be very popular. Anything can happen though.

No Man's Sky finally got an official release date! This game is absolutely enormous, to understate. A completely open world-nay, open universe-to do whatever you desire in. Such a scale of a virtual world is possible thanks to procedural generation - A method of generating data algorithmically. As stated before, this game is going to be bigger than anything yet, and will take an uncountable amount of time to explore everything in the reality you exist in, which never takes into account every possibility that can exist [because let's face it, such a number would be incomprehensible in every respect of the word]. This could be pioneering a completely new method of gaming, being kind of like a simulation with elements of science fiction. It will also be a validity check for if the various interactions of various algorithms will be utile in the real world. What this game is at it's core, is lots and lots of math. Is the hype train ready to roll, or am I just late?

I really have been finding it impossible to tear myself away from World of Warships. Now that I finally have the Yamato, things may be a bit different. But anyway, yes, the grading. Let's see here... Oh god Mount some guns on that thing and send it out to war. Looks qualified. I can't say the same for the entry, however. Doesn't appear you have any engines that use internal oxidizer, but there's no clear view of the back of the aircraft. The two images were both taken on the runway, and there's nothing showing you on the other side of Kerbin. Steady as she goes. Fairly low flyer, I have to say. Must be stressful staying near land all the time [subtle allusion to one circumnavigator we all know and love]. I would ask about the wings, but I've built more ridiculous nonsense in the past, so I don't get the privilege. At the very least I can give you compensation in the form of a badge: 3rd image: Cruise? I don't think anyone's idea of "cruise" is to be on fire, unless you're Superman. Well, par for the course. Don't really have a witty reply to this one... Give it time. Well, time is a spatial dimension. It is the series of an infinite number of 3 dimensional planes containing everything possible, which react like neurons to create the greatest illusion of all time; the illusion of control. In the sad reality, everything we do has been and is being determined by the basic growth dynamics of the universe. Stay on topic, Xan! Right, okay. The criteria is met, so the reward will be given: I once made it a goal in my velocity entries to always thread the needle and pass up to 29999m. Yeah that never worked out. Well, once again, pretty par for the course. It's like watching a Jingles video on battleship gameplay; you never really see anything spectacular until something starts going horribly wrong. I'm going to forever contemplate whether I'm happy or sad that nothing went wrong here. Speaking of nothing going wrong: Oh trust me, I have had to do far more quickloads than that. My velocity entries where I use a very fast parachute landing usually takes around 15 just to get the timing perfect. Just barely didn't make the cut for a velocity entry. Closer calls have been made, but there is the 1hr minimum thing. I really really need to figure out criteria for a die-hard circumnavigator category, as well as a badge. Sounds like something to do when bored. Speaking of criteria, it works, and it also sounds like something from Metroid [probably because it is]

Well it's at least super entertaining to see... Whatever this is. I bet you laugh at whoever said perpetual motion was impossible.

Well needless to say this is one of the silliest things I've seen in quite a while. At least you get an honourable mention as "most crazy insane whacked out 'original'" Yeah we'll go with that... The plane design totally looks like something Japan would build. Look up I-400 if you don't get it. No argument here, cinematics can be important. I remember doing that on my Eve Rocks entry [still looks cool] Now presenting: The sausage plane circumnavigation badge [I wish I had one of the former] [Why is everyone building cruise missiles?] Whatever the answer, it appears you managed the velocity badge by a slim margin. I wonder how toasty the cockpit gets in there; certainly enough to warm some toast. Roast or toast, at least you now boast a badge.

Hmm... It doesn't look like a legitimate gun, but I guess it's cool for what it is. 7/10
