  1. Do not attach the Naughty List to the Magic Boulder!
  2. I don't think it was designed as a 'dog-friendly' environment, with all that stuff around...
  3. My point is, if nobody ever reads them, then why should we have them at all? Ok, so the choppy useless feel is humorous and intentional? I can live with that, but it doesn't feel like the same kind of humor that's in, say part descriptions. Just my 2.
  4. When you are good at KSP. When you got good at KSP by learning about transfer windows and ΔV without mods. My first year or so, before I learned how mods work, was dominated by me holding a protractor up to the screen to find interplanetary trajectories. I still always keep at hand, while playing KSP: -My phone, with ΔV maps and lists of phase angles -My graphing calculator, for calculating ΔV, TWR, and other stuff -My protractor, for when I don't have a phase angle readout -[and also my tower of cubes, because I always have at least a cube or two at hand]
  5. This is just one example; They're all like this. I think we all know about this, but I'd like to bring some greater attention to it. The important specifications of the contracts are fine. For instance, I can see how long it lasts, how much Science, Funds, and Rep I get, and where I need to go and what I must do. The only problem is with the briefings. Seriously, what the heck did that have to do with a temperature survey? A briefing should be able to tell me a little about what the agency wants me to do, such as this address to a very important organization by a very prestigious person: The briefings in KSP are totally useless right now. They should really be improved so that they are actually straightforward and related to the contract, if not useful. If that can't be done easily, I suggest these briefings should be removed entirely until it becomes possible to do so. Otherwise, they're dead weight...which is not a great thing to have in a rocketry sim.
  6. It was detached temporarily to move it to a different docking port 5 minutes later! Geez, why does everyone have to overreact to everything? Someone stole the Mun.
  7. Δ Had to be the ONE letter with no functional alt-code...
  8. Granted, but the fish kills you. With it's laser eyes. I wish stinging insects had never developed.
  9. The first two are from yesterday, and the last one was from today. 100% stock, KSP 1.1.
  10. Eve should get rings and a couple of medium-sized moons, a little smaller than the Mun. Possibly an asteroid moon inside the ring system.
  11. Thanks, I hope to be a more helpful forum user now.
  12. Stanley finds a Portal gun on the ground. He picks it up and keeps walking.
  13. Hey, this thing has actually moved a bit! 33 (-)
  14. Good thing I made a solar filter today! Granted. You qualify to become an astronaut, but someone else gets the job. I wish I lived in the universe where all the world's governments teamed up to build a giant moon colony with a sports complex (including tape measure extending and flying.)
  15. You know you're a nerd when you can remember your height only by how close it is to the NASA astronaut height limit. I will likely end up very close to the upper limit when I stop growing...
  16. That's one small step fo-- HOLY **** IT'S GOT SOME KIND OF DRILL GET BACK TO THE...[unintelligible]...[signal lost] In reference to this xkcd:
  17. The object I use to connect to the forums in the first place already bears a slightly disconcerting resemblance to the telescreen...but that's the subject of a different thread...one which I will not be posting because it would quickly turn to the subject of (hypothetical) politics. ...and also it might get the attention of the Thought Police.
  18. Thanks. I've just been worried that if I were to push the button, it gets instantly whisked away to Big Brother* as if there's something bad about it, like breaking rules. Can the person who posted it see that it's been reported, and the message that went with the report? I wouldn't want anyone to feel bad about having their thread reported for something simple like being in the wrong subforum. *Note: Take no offense at the analogy, you guys are not Big Brother-y at all! Or-well, at least that's what I have been made to think...
  19. So reporting a post lets you type a message saying why you're reporting it? I've always been to scared to try... Sometimes I see threads that should be moved or something, but not anything as bad as "Report" sounds (at least to me). I read something about a text box a few pages back, so I think it's clear enough for me.
  20. I think parts of the atmosphere would get to space...
  21. I use it, sure, it even has a special keycode in the capsule to activate: >Esc >Revert to Vehicle Assembly
  22. ...where the only object inside is a computer running Internet Explorer. The building is a pencil factory...
  23. Granted. The clouds are blown away, along with a good chunk of the atmosphere, by a gigantic asteroid impact. I wish for a higher power telescope.
