Did this hotfix remove the ability to launch KSP 2 directly from the .exe file, forcing us to use the PD launcher? I can no longer launch the game via the .exe, it just loads the PD launcher instead.

Absolute legend!

Here's my entry. Unfortunately I live in Freehealthcareland™ so can't actually enter this - hopefully my video can serve as inspiration for others! https://youtu.be/km0Gffwpa_s

It's a .rar file, use 7zip, Winrar or any other extraction program to open it

Pretty much! Except I got the craft pictures using the mod Kronal Vessel Viewer The Eve variant has a heat shield.

Here at Lowne Aerospace® we are very excited to offer a new surface base! This features ample internal cargo and crew capacity, a full-size laboratory kitted-out with every science experiment available, two external viewing platforms, full ore mining and refining capability, a secure rover garage (rover included with purchase) with a closable door and retractable ramp, and a vertical telescopic mobility enhancer (sometimes referred to as a “ladder”) to enable boarding without the need for an EVA pack. See the catalogue below to select the launcher configuration most suitable for your needs, and then proceed to purchase with the download button below. Happy colonising! Disclaimer: Lowne Aerospace® has not definitively proven the landing capabilities of the Universal Surface Base® on any celestial body aside from Tylo. Customer feedback welcomed.

ok

Mates for what it's worth I didn't invent the concept of rescuing people lol, you don't need my permission to have a community rescue service. I think it's great, actually!

I can’t help but feel partially responsible for some of the hysteria surrounding the KSP 2 move from Star Theory to Intercept, and I am glad that spirits within the dev team remain high. I am disappointed that some viewers interpreted the news as a sign of cancellation or other deterioration of KSP 2’s development. The focus of the reporting (and my video) was to highlight the business side of Take-Two’s hostile acquisition of the KSP 2 development, which is something I still feel is a wholly negative thing and is part of an aspect of the publisher/developer relationship across the games industry that I hope will continue to grow better as the industry matures. I wish no ill-feelings to any of the KSP 2 developers, and I am still wholeheartedly excited for the sequel. I have no doubt that your collective passion will result in an incredible sequel and I am very excited to see what you and your team produce.

I made that post before the DLC was added, which included the parts required for the mission to work. Not to detract from Brad's excellent achievement here though!

Incorrect, good sir. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-pctls27b0

If that's the criteria then Stratzenblitz75 has already done this. Also if someone claims to have a Tylo SSTO working I'd assume liar until a video is posted proving otherwise, or at the very least pictures. I'm pretty certain that Tylo SSTO is mathematically impossible without refuelling. The only ways are either a) separate Tylo Lander b) IRSU. I and many others have done those missions but there's a reason why nobody has done the "true tylo SSTO". Happy to be proven otherwise but I don't see how it would be possible in stock.

Thanks but why not use one of my better Eeloo missions?

Another impossible challenge. There really needs to be a rule that OP has actually verified that what they're asking is possible without mods.

Asclepius is much easier to make a mission to than a lot of stock planets, I think it's an odd system that any modded planet is automatically worth more than any stock planet. A Moho SSTO is way harder than most modded planets, for example. Eeloo isn't much easier either.

Mun should be in the same point class as Eve and Duna IMO, atmospheric planets are way easier for landing rovers. Should be 1 point for Minmus, 2 for Mun/Gilly/Ike/Duna/Eve, 2.5 for Laythe/pol/bop/Dres, 3 for Vall, 3.5 for Eeloo, 4 for Moho, 5 for Tylo. Also, why the heck does a mobile base require one of every fuel tank? Or any fuel capacity at all for that matter. This rule means that every mobile base I've ever made wouldn't qualify. There's far too much stipulation on what modules are required. Give people a little creative freedom here.

Hey everyone! I built this on a livestream, here's a link to the full construction: (disclaimer, my methods for building craft are swearing and angrily insulting everything, but when it finally works I'm happy again. It's just all part of the process )

I've already done lots of those though. See any of my Minmus/Mun/Duna/Gilly SSTO videos.

I keep meaning to update the main image in this thread, just keep forgetting about it. I'll do it eventually!

It would actually be pretty easy to beat my record, that SSTO was very heavy so burns were quite long and therefore not the most efficient. Plus the flight to Jool could have been trimmed using better gravity assists.

We were all there too at one point. All about practice. Something something the masters have failed more times that students have ever tried. Stick at it, you'll get there one day!

Tylo is not analogous to Eeloo at all. It's much easier to go to Eeloo than to Tylo. Not to detract from this video, just weighing in that it's not the same. My "Debunk" video was created using complete mathematical evaluation of every point of the mission. If you want to make serious accusations of faking then you need to at least crunch the numbers. And this doesn't include personal anecdotes. I haven't watched the video to the extent that I'd be willing to support one view or the other, but just from the concept alone I would expect this to be possible.

Nah

Why am I obligated to reply to every thread I like? And the unrelated footage is a joke.

I liked the topic, I ain't obliged to reply to anything..
