This might just replace the Taurus for me!

How many Kerbals does this carry?

I'd rather they just have a set of solar systems added, so that we have shared experiences. Procedural generation would be kind of sucky for learning from eachother and sharing. Also, this game doesn't need even more performance issues.

That's not even close to correct. Vulcan has a 5m core, will have a more effecient, more powerful engine and eventually use an even more powerful upper stage. Vulcan + ACES ( the new upper stage) + 6 SRBS = more powerful than a Delta Heavy, while only 1/3 the price.

Purchasing a retina iMac is a bad choice. I owned several iMacs over the years, and almost every single one of the newer ones (2009 on) failed due to overheating in some capacity - either the HDDs failed, or the GPUs failed. This is a common occurrence as well. I knowe this is anecdotal, but I worked as an Apple Technicianfrom 2009-2013, and that was enough to prevent me from ever purchasing an apple product ever again - even the computers that appear to be a good deal. The iMacs have never been, and never will be a good deal. They're insanely overpriced for their specs, they use poor designs with bad air flow, are quite a bit hotter than a computer really should be at idle, and use inferior parts than what the price point suggests. OP, do not buy an iMac, and do not buy AMD products to run KSP on. Unfortunately you really do need to go Intel/Nvidia here.

I know you said you were going to add the terran like planet to n3 - have you already designed your layout for n2 and n3 then?

Extraplanetary Launchpads is great for that.

Seems like that 7.5 meter pod isn't even up to date, hasn't been updated since .9

Thanks!

Are you open to any assistance when it comes to designing planets? What are your plans? I'd love to help out, if only to get a terran like planet in a mod that doesn't relocate the kerbol system

Every two weeks or so I run into yet another stock bug that makes me want to stop playing. This game could be a million times better so easily. I can't wait to see this game in 5 years - perhaps then it'll be the game I want it to be.

Has anyone else experienced the cargo bays in this mod pack overheating over nothing? I think it might be related to the stock overheating bug on certain parts unfortunately.

My setup is pretty epic, IMHO. I first landed the large white miner on the left to provide fuel to crafts like the one with the SpaceX style landing legs. That thing can take up rocket parts to my orbital shipyard, however, I have a simliar one for taking up ore - provided by the base module with the tons of drills on left just above the aforementioned white mining rig. I used an extraplanetary launchpad workshop to build that super large collasal base thing on the middle right, that will replace nearly everything in the picture. I optimize and design via low part count, or at least try to. Sometimes I have an idea, and and implement it poorly. Thank goodness for Extraplanetary lanchpads! Reduced my part count by an insane amount. I can take up 13000 ore up at a time, usually takes just an hour or two in game time to get that much ore. I take the ore up to my refinery station, in the second picture with the CXS II Phobos fueling up for a round trip to Duna. In that picture you can also see Algol I, the ore freighter docked at the station. If only the USI FTT mod had a 5m storage part for Ore then I could take up 27k ore at a time.

"Frogs hibernate to escape the freezing temperatures of winter. Their heartbeats and breathing slow, their body temperature drops to nearly match the outside temperature, and they pass the time in a state of dormancy or torpor. Aquatic frogs hibernate under water and take in oxygen from the water through their skin." http://www.learner.org/jnorth/search/FrogNotes3.html

My canon is that kerbals evolved from Frogs, of course. They were always one group of individuals, and never managed to split into seperate groups because of the impossibility of geographic isolation. since they learned to work together, their one world government managed to have enormous funds for space travel. The rest, is well, history.

Well you'd have the space, at least to mount tons of parachutes and/or retrograde modded ejecta-trons to kill speed! haha.

Man, I've got to build a station using asteroids now - with towers coming out of it and stuff, just like this: https://evepics.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/epasteroidminingstation.png

Yeah, true, chutes would a real problem - however, I only have to use 6 full sized ones for the Taurus or the Near Future 6 person pod. I can't imagine a 5 meter pod would really be that much worse.

Dres is pretty useless, I think once I decide my program needs jump drive tech I might put a base there that can go dresteroid hunting or something.

I should probably install tweakscale for once

I constructed two Ares Class Duna Exploration Frigates in Minmus orbit, at Ceres Shipyard. They were constructed almost an entire Kerbin year in advance of their maiden voyage to Duna. They carry a 2 person lander with then, and make use of nuclear engines. I present the CXS-I Deimos, and the CXS-II Phobos.

I've used hacked pods before, but I'd really just like to know about a part I'm surprised someone hasn't made them, considering how crazy some of us get! The 7.5 meter one in existence holds 50 kerbals? something like that. I don't even care about IVAs, just trying to get kerbals into orbit to interplanetary ships with as few launches as possible. Someday, I'll need to use that 7.5 meter pod multiple times for my first proper kerbin-twin colony.

SpaceY and some USI parts. I'm placing bases on every possible body not only the in the Kerbol System, but other systems using other mods. I build huge ships using extraplanetary launchpads.

I clearly already knew about the 3.75mn pods, as I didn't ask about them They're too small at this point. I'm needing to get more kerbals into orbit, and I dislike using spaceplanes.

I'm not looking for spaceplane parts, or anything not capsule like. The only one I know of so far is one of the SpaceX mods has a 7.5 meter or something pod, but I'm honestly just looking for a 5 meter pod at this point. Are there any in existence?
