    Actually, they have to be careful. One of the axioms of software development management is "adding manpower to a late software project makes it later" (see Brooks' Mythical Man-Month)

    That's because the old hands have to train the newbs, the newbs make stupid mistakes that the old hands have to take time to fix, and it's more time-consuming to communicate vital things to everyone.

    I see Squad's been careful to hire mod devs that already know a good chunk of KSP development tools and practices, so there's not so much of a learning curve. They're also apparently careful not to make the team too large too.

    I would not want to be in Dr. Turkey's shoes. He's got a difficult row to hoe.

     

    I dont mean they hire people for 1.1, that is obviously too late. I agree with what you say but a company also has to grow, KSP has had a lot of success but it could get much bigger and better

    Call KSP 1.3 KSP 1.337?

    It is seriously time for this thread to come to a close.

    Let's review.

    1. OP Suggests version 1.3 should be version 1.337
    2. People disagree

    Now let's look at the opinions in this thread.

    1. Version 1.337 is a ridiculous idea that many associate with "llol so mlg mtn xx420quikscopxx". This, in my opinion, is a fair point. Many will not take this game seriously and will result in a dent to the games reputation.
    2. Version 1.337 is a great idea, because:

    Now, upon analyzing the opinions, we can see that those who support the suggestion don't have any reason for this versioning nor do they have a defense against the non-supporters.
    From here, we can draw a conclusion. This idea was not thought out at all. I started as a silly suggestion with no reasoning behind it and is about to, or maybe already has, start a flame war. The thread is going nowhere and needs to be closed.

    .....................................................................

    It's starting the become difficult not to resort to personal attacks on this thread. That's me being brutally honest here. This post is doing nothing but ruining your reputation in this community, OP. How will anybody take you seriously after this?

    That's all I have to say.

     

    I cant understand why you are so butthurt about this thread, you gave you oppinion now let it be, why insist on closing?

    Here goes my attempt, aerobreakes bugged when changing from one ship to another and refused to open :( , this is not the first time that happens to me so if anybody knows the fis, I appreciate it.

    Overall I am quite happy . I did not use mechjeb autopilot ( only the landing prediction) or chutes, just manual piloting.

    Hope you like it! :)

     

    EDIT: I used lander icons because I have the space full of other ships and wanted to make it clearer hahaha

     

    EDIT 2: WOW! basically same rocket design as scott manley, both uploaded almost at the same time O_O that has to give extra points https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5v3TW2u6yk

    How big are we talking here? As others have mentioned ever since docking was introduced long before Sr docking port came about people were already doing multi-port docking for heavy duty on orbit construction, here's an Eve mission using quads:

    Alternatively to avoid the wobble you could also use tractor configuration for your mothership.

    Are those conic white things that support the motors stock? I keep seeing them everywhere 60 hours of gameplay later I still can´t figure wich part it is lol

    Usually I care more about where I am headed than where I come from. So the orbital prediction (the future part of the trajectory) is the most important part. And this part is currently drawn faintly, and hard to see with for the darker orbit colors. I think both ways are sort of intuitive, but flipping the brightness would give better usability.

    Completely agree
