  1. "We choose to go to the moon. We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because someone shone a red laser dot on it!"
  2. i'm glad that some more struts were added to the server, and the forum is flying again!
  3. today i discovered something new (for me) in the VAB: if you shift-click a floating sub assembly, you will break that sub assembly into parts! this is super handy for merging existing craft when you no longer have easy access to the root part.
  4. i once read a book (Run to the Stars by Michael Scott Rohan) where the villain preferred a fancy laser pistol intended for discrete murder because: a) it operated silently, b) it had a beam-mode that could slice up corpses for handy disposal, c) it contained none of the chemicals or metal shapes that would trigger the weapon-detectors found everywhere.
  5. pros: the greater mass of the cyborg skeleton, and reduced overall buoyancy, means you will never be convicted of the crime of witchcraft cons: co-workers will inevitably discover that they can place fridge magnets on you
  6. perhaps the suit fabric is woven from super hair? (i.e. the literal hair from super man/woman)
  7. i kinda don't mind the new forum look! it's got some solid retro '90s vibes (tricky to use tho, but that was the style back then, along with wearing an onion on your belt!)
  8. oof... those specs are well above what my potato can handle i guess i'll stick with playing KSP1 for a while longer
  9. interestingly, this is incorrect! while a single, double, and triple rope setup can hold 1x, 2x, and 3x the mass, a quad rope setup can only hold 2x the mass. this is because in real life one rope will always be slightly shorter than the others, which will cause the load to be supported entirely by the short rope and it's opposite, while teetering between the 3rd and 4th rope with no guaranteed lift from either. this is also the reason why 4 legged café tables are always unstable!
  10. here is a link to a pdf version of the Hard Rock Miner's Handbook which may be of interest
  11. This mod is amazing, and is definitely going into my "must have" mod list. Such a simple rearrangement brings common sense to the early game, without unnecessarily changing science or part balance! Bravo @GonDragon
  12. it was interesting to watch the launch footage, does anyone know what was happening around T+76s when the paint began to get stripped of the boosters? also around T+140s you can see something flapping wildly near the base of the booster, is this normal?
  13. found another biome for tier 1 KSC! it's possible to sample "R&D Main Building" by bumping up against the quonset hut nearest to the intended building
  14. i like to do BIG career playthroughs (stations & bases on every planet, hundreds of probe landers and communication satellites, tourists everywhere, etc..) so for the sake of my CPU, and to avoid game breaking glitches, i try to keep my mod count to a bare minimum... so about 30
  15. i voted for Eyeball McEyeballface because... reasons! but i would have also voted for some kerbalised version of iapetus. (eg: kerpetus, iapekus, etc..)
  16. @RandomKerbal holy necro! if you are looking for cool aircraft parts i recommend the excellent mod Airplane Plus
  17. the mod you are looking for is The Kaptain's Log additionally i can also recommend Project Manager, which will simply and automatically number your launches
  18. it's too close to call! all he modders are amazing!! for me, at least, @Ven wins out for sheer old-school coolness, but @DMagic delivers awesome must-have improvements. meanwhile, @linuxgurugamer is carrying the world on his shoulders, and@Nertea is the kind of perfectionist i love!
  19. calling 000 because i dropped my pencil, and i have no idea where it has rolled to
  20. a lot of people are having the same issue, you can work around it by resetting your FlightUI scales (navball, etc..) back to 100%
  21. thank you @The Aziz! i just went to "settings > general > show unity analytics dialog on next startup only > rebooted kerbal > clicked web link > opted out" and now i feel about 20% less paranoid! remember: just because you think the world is out to get you, doesn't mean it isn't!
  22. i learned something new today because of this challenge! apparently you cannot name a new game "training"
  23. story mode? "kerstronomers have discovered an asteroid on a collision course! you have xx years to intercept it and save kermanity!" ai competitors in career mode? factorio meets ksp? "so you wanna launch a rocket eh?, better start by making some iron plates..." kerbdew valley? the ultimate marshmallow farming simulator ON MINMUS! ... actually i'd just be happy if the aero model got updated a little so that tubes worked and attachment-point-fu was no longer required for aerodynamically shaped craft
