The Optimist

That's why there's the probe core How do they use the chemical toilet without a floor?

Yeah, but the command seats are sometimes in... awkward positions

My final lineup: 2 Woodpeckers, 1 Desert Moth, 1 Beefalo. @inigma thanks! Use this link: https://kerbalx.com/WorkaroundIndustries/KRAF-13-Prop-FighterBeefalo

I think that remotetech just makes it harder

The desert moth can pop the nightingale if it manages to notice it first.

I made this.

Day One of Workaround Industries's circumnavigation attempt. A crew of 3 engineers sets out aboard the LandKreuser amphibious vehicle. The LandKreuser is rated for up to 75 m/s on flat ground and is powered by RTGs and fuel cells. Remotetech and TAC fuel balancer are installed, though the vessel is locally controlled and TAC fuel balancer is not active. I wonder if 67000 m/s of jet dV is enough for an ocean circumnavigation. The KSS Keralia functions as a beacon, and the crew of the LandKreuser will use it to find their distance from home. Edit: Am I allowed to send resupply craft to it?

then it shoots them

And I quote, " Only mods allowed are Scatterer, EVE, KJR, Remotetech, and Mechjeb"

I'm designing a 2.5 meter tank plane, designed to distract all the skrubs while my other ones clean it up.

-Reserved space-

canard is too small

nope

The new turboprop-powered Beefalo has around 130 kN of thrust.

Can you please substitute the micro-fighter for another Desert Moth? Thanks. I just updated my planes again, they should stand a slightly better chance now. Oh, and I bet the new Beefalo can beat a F-16 in a speed contest Make sure you click on the probe core and set it as 'control from here', or the navballs will be glitched

two accounts? XD

Wold "Ingredient" be a better designation? I'll make a section for those.

Name: Standardized Air Branch Ration (Orange-Turkey) or S.A.B.O.T. Company: Centralized Republic of Carmenia Air Force Source: Carmenian military research base #11 Backstory: A wholesome, delicious, and above all constipating MRE for pilots of the CRC's M-2 high-altitude spy planes, used during forays into suspicious territories due to the long nature of those missions, the SABOT ration is in the format of a large chunk of gelatinous orange sauce, with small chunks of processed turkey suspended inside. Later adapted for space use, with the orange sauce being substituted for a denser and more resilient blend. A less constipating variant has also been introduced, despite outcry from the scientists who originally formulated it. The taste is described as "sS-s-sour!" Type: Tinned ration Meal Designation: Medium-term standard ration (All-meals) Meal Type: Meat/Vegetable

Nice! Thanks.

Somebody once said that an army marches on its stomach. We expect that is true for space programs as well! I'm planning on writing an actual planned-out story sometime during the next two months, and I need to come up with something to feed by imaginary Kerbal crew members. I'm accepting all entries, as long as they follow this format: (Name of product) (Company sourced by (Imaginary or in-game)) Source: Vegetables, Meat, Synthesized solid, Synthesized liquid, Organic liquid, etc. (Choose 1) A bit of backstory (e.g. sourced location, etc) Type: Fresh (Radiation sterilized), Dehydrated, Powder-format liquid, Powder-format solid, Hydrated liquid, or Paste. Radiation sterilization, pickling, and chemical treatment are possible preservation methods. Meal designation 1: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Snacks (Choose 1 or multiple) Meal designation 2: Meat, Baked goods (In a non-crumbly paste form), Vegetables (Puree or fresh), Diary, Mystery (Choose 1) E.G. Name: Mystery Meat Formula #42 Company: Schnup Kog's pet food cannery Source: A blend of various mysterious meat products, with a generous helping of wintergreen oil added in. Backstory: A few years ago, a can of ordinary processed meat was dropped into a barrel of fuel-grade vegetable oils. Yesterday, we opened up one of them and found a bunch of cans of this lying around. After feeding it to an intern who reported no ill effects, it was deemed a good substitute for the potentially safer (But far more expensive) Standard Aerospace Ration MKI. Type: Chemically treated solid Meal Designation: Lunch and Dinner Meal Type: MeatTM I am aware that this has been created already, but I want to gather some more unique ideas by myself. Disclaimer: I will edit some entries to provide more depth to the backstory and to reformat them to more closely follow the original design. Basic Ingredients (Vegetables, condiments, grain. Mostly unprocessed, dehydrated stuff): Name: Mystery Mush Company: Watney Botanism LLC (By @TotallyNotHuman_) Source: Pulverized leftover foodstuffs Backstory: A mysterious botanist wanted to reduce food waste, so he collected food scraps, then macerated it, compressed it, and packed it tightly within a metal alloy tube. (Our scientists decided that some reasonably well trained astronauts could figure out how to cook this into something tastier. May contain traces of [REDACTED]) Type: Mush (Chemically-treated) Meal Designation: Torture food Potentially useable vegetable compound Meal Type: Paste Name: Synthmeat Company: Generic (By @0111narwhalz) Source: Synthesized muscular tissue Backstory: A generic term that applies to a meat product grown without the inefficiencies of the rest of the animal. Also known as vitromeat, because it was originally grown on glass dishes. Type: Radiation-sterilized, Kerbin-Grown fresh Meal Designation: Breakfast (bacon-like thin laminate), lunch (sandwich meat, cross-sliced thick laminate), dinner (thick vascularised steaks).

(By @TotallyNotHuman_) Source: Synthesized Liquid Backstory: Originally stolen from the fuel tanks of a Dachlandish Ke-163B "Komet" rocket-powered jet plane (by a gang of tipsy fighter pilots), it has since been refined into a drier, less hydrazinic and more kerbling-friendly drink.

Yep! KerBalloons works as well, but those parts are less pretty in my opinion.

have you played the game
