  1. Sorry to tell you this but the SoI system cannot produce lagrange points, the things are very, very different and despite what you've read, not stable. Please take a look at the other threads on this subject, a forum search will tell you a lot, also take a look at the interplanetary transport network, not possible with SoI's. Closing this one, it's WNTS anyway and stirs up too much backlash. You really need to look here
  2. This is actually a lot closer to the original idea for asparagus staging, no mention was made of pumping fuel though the boosters were liquid rather than solid. Take a look here. It could be done by using boosters with different fuel loads as well.
  3. Whoop whoop! Now it'll be Red Iron Crown!
  4. Oh I know, it's Steam, they are in your User folder, not in the KSP folder! User\applications\Kerbal or something, just do a file search of your system and include hidden files/folders
  5. It should be working, have you tried making a quicksave with the F5 key? If yes then it may say what happened in the Alt+F2 log screen.
  6. Okay it's the Steam version, make sure your antivirus is not deleting the saves by white-listing the KSP.exe in your antivirus software.
  7. Most likely you have KSP in C:\Program Files Unless it's the Steam version, copy it to C:\Games Also, we need your logs, see the stickies.
  8. Yeah I'm here, hi Ted Overfloater, you're up!
  9. By the Kraken, you're right Kerdinand, and the necropost adds nothing to the discussion! Closing
  10. These may explain it better WestAir http://www.newton.dep.anl.gov/askasci/phy05/phy05230.htm https://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/116921/can-there-be-electron-and-or-proton-stars
  11. I wasn't talking about hovering though, I was describing an ascent and how the pull might be changing. Gravity would be pulling you directly back down but as you were at an angle at launch you will be at an angle to vertical all the way up. A craft just hovering is just going to keep moving sideways as it's tilted from vertical, that is the effect here and not gravity or the atmosphere
  12. Yeah I read it, so your rocket on the pad is slightly tilted to the west relative to the planet, and if you have SAS on like most people do it won't veer off course, meaning you're actually flying westward unless you do something about it. The effect of gravity is negligible in this case as you'll very quickly have passed through the point where you are directly over the gravitational center and gravity will be pulling you East, but as you are pointing West and SAS is holding your trajectory you keep on heading that way. If you launched the rocket from the Runway it'll fly East, then be pulled by gravity Westward. Simple
  13. Yeah that effect exists as well The_Rocketeer, though that pulls you East down to the center of the runway, the effect seen by sonaxaton moves the craft West
  14. It could be contributing SpaceXray, though I did have this happen to me on a stock game several updates ago and some fixes were introduced since then. I personally have not been able to reproduce it since Just having a plugin loaded can alter the game though, whether you use addon parts or not. I recommend anyone trying to reproduce this sticks to an unmodded install, if you use ground craft or the gravity hack it'll be easier.
