    Docking fun

    in KSP1 Discussion

    Posted

    The first time i docked was around my 40 or 50 hours of gameplay. I was playing in sandbox, making my own objectives, then i thought "why not make a space station, it shouldn't be very hard", turns out it was :P but i did it.

    Oh, and welcome to the forums :) i'm new too.

    Module contract for Minmus base

    IIRC you have to have two <thing> in a given place before the contract system will offer you contracts based off them. 

    For instance, you need two space stations around Kerbin before you'll be offered to do anything to them, or two bases on Minmus in your case. 

    Don't take this as Gospel truth, but I'm pretty sure @Arsonide is the one I remember saying that. 

    Thank you! I would have waited forever if it weren't for you.

    Minmus Base Screwup

    Luckily the jetpacks have enough DV to get you into freakin' ORBIT on Minmus. Reaching the door of the lander shouldn't be that big of a deal :)

    But ladders are more realistic :P it feels more authentic.

    so if you capture an asteroid, does it count as adding a moon

    Yes. However, from gameplay perspective there are differences. As one can still move it and manipulate it, it doesn't fall within the same category of the Mun, Minmus, or Gilly.

    But if NASA or the ESA were to take on an ambitious project to bring an asteroid into orbit in order to study it or use it as a foundation for a space station, it could actually be classified a natural satellite once it settled into a steady orbit.  As steady as all the other gravitational bodies in the solar system allowed it to have, of course.  Especially Tom.  Tom needs to cut down on those burritos.

    Damn, an asteroid base in real life sounds awesome...

    Night and latitude situations for 2HOT Thermometer

    in KSP1 Suggestions & Development Discussion

    Posted

    I think it would be interesting to add diferent situations for different latitudes and times of the day for the thermometer experiment.

    Temperatures in Mars change drastically from pole to equator and night to day, that should be apllied to Duna too (specially to latitudes, just look at the poles of Duna, they're full of ice).

    I've just landed a probe in Duna, i used the 2HOT Thermometer to log the temperature, transmitted it and got the science.

    I was taking some screenshots during the dunian night and i had this idea, i tested it and got 0 science. Honestly, i was a bit disappointed.

    So, what do you guys think?

    Btw, here is one of the screenshots it took:

    I haven't done anything for the challenge(Barely done anything outside of Kerbin's SOI), but I had a dream where I was stranded in interplanetary space, and Dres showed up and caught me with its gravity. My ship bumped into an asteroid, and was captured into a stable orbit. So thank you, Dres, for rescuing me, even if it was only a dream.

    That's an interesting dream. Although i've never dreamed of KSP, most of the dreams i can remember that i've ever had were in space or about space. :P
