RA3236

Oh and @Nefrums good idea, and I added separate leaderboards in the OP for each planet with less than 600m/s deltav required to get to orbit according to a delta v map. Tell me if I missed one or something

Usually atmospheric planets have gravity and need more than the delta v of a jet pack and a RT-10 'Hammer' SRB. I'll change them so that you can try if you want, but I think it'll be a pretty lousy attempt.

After crashing on the Mun, Bill went to see if he could EVA to orbit. And he did!!! Rules: All planets are allowed except for gas giants and Gilly. Atmospheric Planets are fine and good for attempting to get nowhere IMO. You must reach orbit from the surface without cheating with only the Kerbal., and then attempt (but don't have to succeed ) rescue the kerbal with a brand new craft without cheating. (In my example the Kerbal crashed into the Mun with the rescue.) No mods that alter physics allowed. Scoring: The points modifier is as follows: g'sASL3 x (PE+AP) rounded to nearest digit. (give me something better if you want ) This means that I got 72902 89 points. (gs-ASL is the brackets in: Surface gravity 1.69 m/s2 (0.172 g) in this case 0.172g for Eeloo My attempt: Leaderboard: Mun: RA3236 - 89 points Minmus: @zarakon - 5045 points, bonus because of a double escape. Ike: . Dres: . Pol: . Bop: . Eeloo: Nefrums, 274p and also added this leaderboard to the OP!!! Other planets (username, planet and approximate delta v to reach orbit. I'll check this: Special mentions: @Chemp for his amazing Kerbal-powered rocket that sadly broke the rules of only having one part (kerbalEVA). And a badge for those guys who like badges: Good luck!!!

After my KSC team completes their investigation on why Bob and the rescue craft crashed into the Mun EDIT: Challenge going up for this

Okay, album: (I quick loaded a couple of times in there to get the result)

I need to know whens this evening (Im in Australia)

Well, I got my second time right, album coming soon! If this belongs in Mission Reports tell me.

Okay... Didn't save so I'll do it again and post screenshots!

I must have been lucky. I'll upload a screenshot of Bill in orbit but it could take a while. EDIT: @Gaarst try starting at about 5kms up (like I did). EDIT 2: Anyone up for a challenge for this?

Hello, There are gonna be a whole lot of "no"s here but I practically did what Scott Manley did with a spare engine at one point (I can't find that video)(Did that happen?): I sent Bill from the surface of the Mun in EVA to orbit. I ended up doing so since my lander was destroyed, so Bill decided to grab as much propellant as possible, walked up the edge of the crater rim, and fired the pack due east as much as possible, whenever the AP went too far ahead I stopped and waited. Starting height: 5435m ending orbit 8.5x10.7 km. Has anyone done this before as well? I'll take Jeb and Bob up with pics.

Wait... 70 degrees? You mean 20, right?

Uhhh. Sorry none here. I always call my ships 1, 2, 3 or 4 or whatever and my planes KA-~~~ or whatever.

Uhhh... Couldn't the very fact your using 64bit be the very source of the problem? You might wanna see if the problem persists on stock and 32bit installs. If it does than its a computer problem (I think)

Quite obviously no. Do a search for "FASA" on google or the forums. The mod here still uses spaceport which is nonexistant now. And that was 0.20 or something.

I think I came to the right place. Im always having trouble getting anything larger than an Aeris 4A to orbit, but I might look at the basic structure of your planes to get designs of mine actually working. They are really cool!

And replied within two seconds, it's cool to see that designing a ship could be a centre part of interludes and other stuff

Well, that's me out, I can't handle uploading or watching videos with my internet. Sweet challenge though, I think my record was five minutes to Minmus and then back...

Hmm... Paying in funds for more mods isn't such a bad idea...

I would see if you could: Construct the vessel in orbit (it didn't say Kerbin there) Have a single lander docked to transfer ship, as technically the lander would be classed as the same vessel.

How about using Vens stock revamp? I also have Alternis Kerbol and some other mods, but I'll stick to Revamp. Is this ok?

What happened to this thread? @Daelkyr

Your have my vote.

In my save game an E-class asteroid barely got me enough fuel to get another asteroid. In another I used five E-classes to fuel my five fuel tanks.

Okay, nothing happening since I cant figure out why the album wont upload, but hey! New graphic novel soon!.

Damn. Well it appears that I can't create a graphic novel from Imgur. It doesn't want to upload. So I'll try again tomorrow and see if it works, if not no graphic novel...
