Mad Rocket Scientist

7/10 Useful stuff, but I don't use that mod.

Who says jeeps can't win against tanks... You would not believe how hard it was to get those unguided missiles to hit that tank...

I understand what you mean, replicas always require some clipping and weirdness with parts, which makes them look not as good, but I feel there's room for a IRL-alike custom craft, like this: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/113356-It-s-here!-The-Omega-good-looking-heavy-lift-vehicle?p=1791423#post1791423 Anyway, I digress. Replicas are fun to build for me, and I feel that's the point of KSP.

I build both, and like building both, they each offer different challenges. Replicas require research, and fiddling to get it to not look like a clipped mess. However, custom craft can use stock part profiles, heights, and wing shapes, which makes it quite a bit easier than replicas, after all, custom crafts don't need to work one specific way. As to creativity, I feel like there's just as much creativity in trying to get stock parts to look like a IRL craft, as in building something from scratch.

Banned for always having one more pip of rep than me.

I want a poor viewing experience! WAHHHHHH!

Awesome work! +rep

True, I try to right click every part after an update: For example, the parachutes now have a little thing telling you whether it's safe to deploy them.

Very interesting! Well, I didn't pay enough attention to the air, really. I have trouble comparing, since I had FAR almost all the way into 1.0, so stock air just seemed a bit different, unlike when I installed FAR, which, from pre-1.0 air, had a steep learning curve. That is extremely interesting! Thank you for the info!

The mk3 cockpit has 45m/s impact resistance, and their landing gear isn't retracted, so I think they will need a rescue mission, not a hearse mission.

Online? I believe that qualifies you as a cheater.

I feel like the peak of KSP's aero was at 1.0, except for drag, that was way to high. I love lots of realism in my air, so I have to put as much work into designing airplanes as designing rockets.

Well, this guy made this post: And everyone's joking about it. Don't you feel the pain of the forum, in it's last spasm?

omg!!!!!! Epic ncro!!!!!!!!!!! Lol!!!

i agre rong fourm thogh.

Quote in sig? I believe that qualifies you as a cheater.

"XD?" I believe that qualifies you as a cheater.

I believe my company counts, under the epic engineer rule: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/113309-AMRSD-Applied-mad-rocket-science-division-TAKING-REQUESTS-NOW-HIRING

It was updated in 1.0.3, along with the shock intake. The new MK1 inline cockpit lights up now.

Most times I launch my Ares I, a cubic strut inside Orion overheats.

Potato chips! Yum!

Awesome! Love your replicas!

Now try it from low orbit!

Thanks, testing is going... slowly. Orion is fine, Altair is good, and the landers are mostly tested, but the DTV, Ares V & I are untested.
