  1. Easy: Get to Jool with the least amount of delta-v.

    Medium: Get to Jool with the least amount of delta-v and come back.

    Hard: Get to Jool with the least amount of delta-v, go into the upper atmosphere, release a spaceplane, fly that spaceplane for 90 seconds while your craft is descending, then achieve orbit and come back.

    Ultra Hard: Get to Jool with the least amount of delta-v, go into the upper atmosphere, release a spaceplane, fly that spaceplane to space while your craft is descending, then achieve orbit, transfer to Vall orbit, escape, and then come back.

     

    No Alt-F12 or HyperEdit. 

    Rules:

    "Upper Atmosphere" is designated as 100-200km.

    You must release your spaceplane between 125-150km.

    Only stock parts, Engineer, MechJeb, and KW Rocketry parts are allowed. (KW Rocketry for the big fuel tanks/powerful engines for hard/ultrahard)

    "Vall orbit" is designated as a orbit within Vall's SOI and not going within 10km.

    "come back" is designated as hitting, or landing Kerbin, or having a orbit with a periapsis of 70km or lower.

    "least amount of delta-v" is designated as total dv.

    You may not use a stock spaceplane.

    People who have tried:

    Easy:

    PLAD [V0.90] - Vall capture. See post 7 for link. 1,017m/s.

    PLAD, Attempt 3 [V1.1.1] - 916m/s.

    Medium:

    PLAD (again) - 1,012m/s back,

    Hard:

    Ultra Hard:

    Gatecrashers:

    PLAD, Attempt 1 [V0.23.5] - Thought that aerobraking-to-orbit was allowed.

     

     

  2. It just crashes with no error message and NO crash dump. I'm trying to reinstall now. (at 88%, 2.7MB/s - usually would be much faster at 6-7)

    I've checkd there is no crash dump

    Obviously because I have a 64 bit processor (AMD Athlon X4 B50 - upgraded via ASUS Core Unlocker from a X2 550)  and Windows 10 32bit 9because the guy put 32-bit on my computer for some reason when I specifically asked him for x86-64)

    Version: 1.1.0.1228 (Final 1.1)

    Operating System: Windows 10 Version 1511 (OS Build 10586.218)

    8GB RAM (processor supports PAE/NX because it is needed for windows 8 and up, not sure if KSP supports it though.)

  3. A Probodobodobodyne OKTO2 attached to a Mammoth engine, with internal fuel producers, and fuel lines flow it back into the engines. And also 20,000 graphene heat shields.

    It was launched on April 22, 2016 at 4:03PM GMT+1 BST from the KSC.

    After 40 minutes, it was travelling at 628 km/s!

    Mission Timeline:

    4:03PM: launch

    4:35PM(?): 500 km/s

    4:45PM: 625 km/s

    Current Speed (4:46PM) 660 km/s (43 minutes)

    Accelerating at about 125-150m/s(?) per second, it is due to be deactivated at 3,000 to 10,000 km/s

    Updates:

    57 minutes: 900 km/s
