Thanks. As I hope you understand, my previous post was a joke.

You should make one of these:

Gets what I said on 04/05/2016: Inserts glove filled with Vaseline.

Hmm. The font doesn't look so appealing- you know, too wide, spaces are huge, etc. It's like, there are serifs everywhere, and they're massive. Also, the dude who made this font should really check his stuff, it looks quite unsettling when all the periods and semicolons are in bold but the actual letters aren't. I also don't like the spoiler slider. It looks too dull, and needs some rounded corners. As well as that, I don't get the "share this post" button, looks too much like a "hyperlink" button and should be made larger. I'm being very helpful here, right? ... right?

I go on Bitbucket, and see a million files, including some uncertain "PSSM-01" thing. Which .zip do I download?

*GASP* Oh no...

Wait, please specify what you mean by "Japan Islands".

Huh. You should try looking more at continental divides, island chain formation, and mountain chain direction, as well as where the tallest mountains are, the deepest points of the oceans, etc. I put some half-baked lines, speculating on where there is evidence of plate boundaries. Minimal evidence used, as of now, because I have to go to bed. G'night, fellow geologists...

Nice! I'd like to recommend a few locations, in order to check elevations for some further hypotheses. May I? Oi, nevermind, don't have time for that yet. By the way, don't worry about the harshness. I've been much worse sometimes, modders will know...

I see your thoughts, but I think that Kerbin was made to look like a realistic planet, with actual stuff happening on it. I mean, sure, no meteorites have ever collided with Kerbin, but here you go, a huge crater in the middle of the planet (Kerbin Crater). Or take this: http://imgur.com/a/SCxmQ Those are all very detailed examples of water motion. Pictures 1 and 2 show water, accumulating and flowing out of a mountain range. Picture 3 looks like a direct Great Lakes reference. Picture 4 shows an actual river system, complete with drainage basins and runoffs. Some locations on Kerbin strongly indicate tectonic and glacial movement. And yet, nothing moves on Kerbin. Even though Kerbin is completely static in time, the only purpose of that is because it will be unnecessarily complex if Kerbin worked like an actual planet in real-time. However, Kerbin was generated with very good scientific accuracy. We have to treat Kerbin as if it functions like an actual planet, because that is how it was programmed. Think of it as being given a still-life of an actual planet. That still-life "photo" perfectly displays nearly every property the real planet has, and is still analysable. However, acting like nosirrbro is not a good idea, and all of your assumptions have very good reason. I actually find myself agreeing with most of your crater candidates, as craters can appear in any form, at any location, and are actually quite common. Nice thoughts, but at what means did you create the plates? I say I will start out by creating images of where intersections can possibly be. I'll check out maps, and see what hypothesis I can cook up. Meanwhile, nice thinking!

NW Ocean? Let's see. Post a picture please...

I am compelled by the grandiose power of Bush to like every A-10 Thunderbolt analogy there is. If I pass my 25 point limit, I wait through the night.

I am also starting to suspect that. However, remember that you are not always searching for directly antipodal points. Also, angle of impact does not affect the crater as much in hypervelocity impacts. The crater might still appear circular, but the impact may be extremely angular. Again, a great example of that is the Chicxulub crater.

@The_Rocketeer. I'm not sure if that circular mountain pattern actually indicates the location of the antipodal disruption. Again, I'll make another reference to a chicxulub-sized vertical impact simulation, mentioning that its antipodal disruption is huge- the size of Australia. Actually, I'll say that the circular mountain range can be the epicentre of the disruption. After all, I see that it is exactly on the opposite side of the planet (from the Kerbin Crater). I'm trying to find the area around the epicentre, that was altered by the disruption. I would also like to bring interest to a possibly related area:

Exactly. They're probably volcanic.

Green Semicircles= Rim of Kerbin Crater. Grey Line= Equator. Thin Red Circle= [APPROXIMATE] area at which the antipodal disruption may be- "Spain-Shaped Landmass" chain of islands. I never said that the Chixculub impact is the largest. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massive_Australian_Precambrian/Cambrian_Impact_Structure At this point, the size of the Kerbin Crater, when scaled up to realistic Earth Size, is completely feasible. EDIT: I'm going to put my picture into my above post.

Ah, not crater: an antipodal disruption. Observe this simple example of the force of a completely vertical impact in chixchulub, getting lensed by the earth and meeting directly at the crater's antipode beside Australia. When we look at Kerbin's craters, we should not imagine Kerbin as an object that has matter thrown from it on every occurring impact. We should think of Kerbin as a bell, or a gong, in which every applied force strongly reverberates throughout the whole object. Here's a 2d cutaway of the shockwaves: With an angled impact, the forces shift: One can clearly observe how the forces act like actual waves, bouncing off the inner crust. However, those models (including the animation above) describe Earth (or Kerbin) as a perfectly flat, featureless sphere. With terrain and an elliptical shape, an impact would act like this: So, when the Kerbin Crater event happened, there was a similar force on the other side of the planet, one that could be compared to another impact. Now, assuming correct sizes and proportions of Kerbin (10x Kerbin), the Kerbin crater is damn huge. The Chixculub crater was at least twenty times smaller. I'd be surprised if the whole planet of Kerbin was not reshaped by the crater. All those water basins, in fact, may be caused by the sheer reverberation of the shock-waves across Kerbin, following the impact. In short- I am almost certain that the Kerbin Crater has an antipodal disruption. the "Spain-Shaped Island Chain" is a sure candidate. I believe that the Kerbin Crater may provide us with large amounts of information on Kerbin's formation. Look for the formations of mountain chains, the formations of water and terrain features, etc. I'm quite sure that the whole planet was altered by the impact, just because of how damn huge it is. EDIT: Oh, and here's a reference picture to what I'm talking about: Green Semicircles= Rim of Kerbin Crater. Grey Line= Equator. Thin Red Circle= [APPROXIMATE] area at which the antipodal disruption may be- "Spain-Shaped Landmass" chain of islands. I would assume here that the Kerbin Crater impact was angled, for obvious reasons.

I believe that the water area to the southeast of the Spain-shaped landmass mentioned by @The_Rocketeer (outlined by the chain of islands), is an antipodal-disruption from the impact that formed the large, extremely obvious crater shown below. I base my belief on the formation of the island chain around that area, and the fact that that area is nearly directly antipodal to the aforementioned crater.

Actually, there will be only one tile: Space Centre You will only be able to upgrade it ten times. It will defend itself, and occasionally blow up while doing that. You do, however, win the game by means of science instantly.

I see there are docking ports on the sides. I'll try to download it and see what I can do with multiples of these.

You did it, Danny! You really did it! Thanks!

Oh really? hehe

Nevermind, then...

I don't believe that the BD Armoury pack makes a correct impression of the GAU-8: http://media.moddb.com/images/groups/1/2/1312/GAU-8.jpg Like, the A-10 is literally a GAU-8 wrapped in a tube. In fact, the GAU-8 decelerates the A-10 when firing. If a second GAU-8 was added, and the A-10 cranked its throttle up while firing, the GAU-8s would push the plane backwards. (No it won't) I believe that the A-10 Thunderbolt should be renamed as the GAU-8 Thunderbolt.
