  1. Indeed, that's why I hoped to hear they're analog CRT ones Tho the pictures u can draw on them look more like this: I've been looking to get my own for years but never had enough money to spare for that. That said, ur mentioning of oscilloscopes prompted me to look up some prices and both analog and digital ones can be acquired for relatively little money right now. And again I don't have said money to buy one now
  2. Yet another moment where I find myself knowing what ur talkin' about, coz as a technician I don't only know what an oscilloscope is, I've used one many times too! Dunno if u thought this far, but I'm kinda curious wether the oscilloscopes in ur story are old ones with CRT screen or modern ones with LCD screen?
  3. I can only guess since I don't have to catch up anymore, but yeah, I think skipping right to the next chapter without searching all the chatter to find it would be very useful, tho one could of course always take the extra step to go back to the first post where they're all linked and find it there. Would still be faster than searching the thread.
  4. Let's just hope the emergency lockdown of Site D prevented the worst case scenario altogether instead of delaying it.
  5. Well that's whatcha get for giving us such an awesome story. Btw, how are things goin'?
  6. My first docking attempt ended with me scrapping the whole save. Of all places the first where I tried it was in Duna's orbit, after I had made a not quite cheat-free return from the surface (my ascend stage ran out of fuel just before the Periapsis rose out of the opposite side of the planet, so I had to toggle infinite fuel on to make orbit and rendezvous with the rest of my ship). When I arrived at said rest of the ship I did manage to kill all my relative velocity, but my ascend vehicle was so badly out of balance that I just couldn't get it lined up properly and every attempt to stabilize everything just made it worse. From that day on I always made sure I had my RCS thrusters on plane with the CoM or, if that wasn't possible, an even distance away from it to keep the RCS center of thrust in the same spot as the Center of Mass.
  7. I suddenly feel like joining the kolan forces to kick some Doreni backsides and pelt them with some copper-coated candy out of a 6-barreled dispenser which goes by the name of Dillon Aero M134, but with twice the normal operating voltage pumped into that thing to boost the rate of fire!
  8. Ok, quite obviously I've released a poorly thought through challenge here, and I'm not sure wether or not to leave this open. That being the case I'll go with "no" and have this thread closed.
  9. I thought I had an idea for a nice challenge but didn't think it through. Closed.
  10. Would u do me a favor and message me if u start a new thread? Don't wanna miss anything.
  11. Btw, will Volume 2 and anything else that may or may not come after that be on the same thread or on a new one?
  12. THANK YOU for using the correct terminology! And DAMN YOU for making me so hungry for the next chapter
  13. Well for me that's gonna be tomorrow. Building my gaming cockpit had me stay up until 5 or 6 in the morning for too many nights now to get my share of playin' some games at the end of my days after all the work done over the days, but now it's at least physically finished and I'm writing this from my very own pilot's seat, surrounded by the usual pitch-and-roll stick, yaw pedals, a collective stick with twist throttle, additional twin throttle levers and a panel with additional switches on it, all built by myself over the course of 2 months. It's worth all the work I've put into it but now I need to find a proper day-night rythm again.
  14. Ok, Jim, NOW u've gotta do something, KSK has just posted his SECOND chapter of First Flight since u've posted Emiko Chapter 99, and now he's only 3 chapters behind u. Not much longer and he's gonna surpass u if u don't do anything
  15. That's probably true. I was just worried that there were people who had dropped out coz they couldn't bear waiting any longer. I'll keep checking this thread from time to time, hoping each time I'll be greeted by the next chapter.
  16. Ok, now the chat has really crashed to a halt, the last post being from 12/10/18... I sure hope this doesn't mean that the readers are losing their interest due to the long waiting periods.
  17. Well whatever it is ur doing there, I think they need to cut back on ur work hours. The waiting for the next chapter has become extremely long by now.
