  1. I was sending a prototype base to the surface of the Mun to meet up with the first part of the base. I was so happy with my self when I had started my suicide burn into the Mun. Thanks Kerbal Engineer! Then I looked away for a moment then corrected my trajectory towards the base. Then the most unexpected thing happened. I LANDED ON MY OWN BASE! Debris was everywhere, as well as my mind. I started laughing madly, then reloaded the landing. I'll try not to be as precise next time.
  2. Chapter 8: An Advanced Start I case you are wondering. I have started a new career mode game which I use Tantares ALOT. I mean, its my favorite mod other than KSPI-E or USI. But there is a catch.....I have cheated my way to about the three hour point in the game, but this was a week ago. That is why there has been no pictures. I hope that the pictures will pick up through these few chapters, though I can not assure you that the pictures will continue. Also, chapters are going to come and go pretty fast.
  3. Keep up the good work! MOAR!
  4. Thanks. Yes I know how I real life every single mission launched--and a few that didn't--had some problems. I read an autobiography about Gene Kranz, the flight director that Gene Kerman is based off of, and it went into detail about alot of problems that could have finished missions but were solved by Mission Control. Never underestimate Mission Control. By the way, the book I read is called, "Failure is not a Option" and it is a very good read.
  5. Don't worry. I follow your work in great interest. By the way, I have been trying to do something like this as well, only two likes and no comments. Don't feel bad if none take to it immediately. Remember, when CastotrophicFailure and Kuzzter "retire", there has to be replacements. Also them two were like this in the older days of the alpha. If you want to see what I am doing, its called Advancing Through Hardships. I would be honored if you could take a look.
  6. Are you playing with KSP 64bit or 32bit, because the 64 bit can kill any weak computer.
  7. I mean, anyone remember of the ideas of using the main shuttle fuel tanks left in LKO to make space stations? We'll should be easy enough to do. The graphics shouldn't have to change at all. Also, the only part needed would be a re-purposing module, like five tons, it could even use the hitchhiker container at first. Just saying, I have been thinking of something like this for a while, hope I somebody can do it.
  8. You can press F2 to get rid of the UI
  9. Remember the use of particle fountains to hold up the orbital ring in LKO. You might want to listen to Issac Author for more detail. He is a futurist on YouTube and my favorite YouTuber at that.
  10. Yes, I tried building a shuttle like that, except if properly designed you don't need a faring. I managed to get one to Minmus and back with nuks.
  11. I cheated to get me to a point about two hours into a new career mode game, now I'm running it pretty well without cheats. Usually I land on the Mun or Minmus several times, though in this save I got USI installed and I plan to use it on a planet, other than Kerbin. That would be totally worth it.
  12. I'm working on a Apollo era story which isn't very NASA like. Its called Advancing Through hardships. It is right now focusing on the early days of space flight, but I plan to include kerbal models of NASA plans for example, project Orion, Sea Dragon, skyhooks and many other things that NASA planned to do after Apollo. Also, if you wonder how in the world so many failures happen, there is a side story that will explain that.
  13. Chapter 6: Maybe Minmus Through an unanimous vote, since only I was voting, I have renamed this series, Advancing Through Hardships. Enjoy!
  14. WOW! I can't believe how awesome you have made this story. You have been my favorite author on the KSP forums ever since I stumbled upon your story. I remember reading chapters 1-71 in an afternoon, it was awesome! This is my thoughts, and what I hope to happen so don't take tips since I'm not the best writer. /Also, I side with the group saying Val's not dead. Because she isn't. Just for that reason. Also, Jeb Jr. (Yes I know what you are up to) is going to be the new main character, as the KrakensBane? you really thought you could fool us? NO. Remember, her ship is on a trajectory which will make the capsule hit Kerbin's atmosphere in twelve years, or is it several minutes..... I know you trick there. The lifesupport goes off just as she begins to enter the atmosphere. IVAN as a survival instinct(at least I think) and will keep the ship alive and therefore keep Val alive and while in reentry, something happens to let the air leak in so that she can breathe. Then IVAN will revive her. Then Jeb Jr. will find her in the capsule and then she will teach him how to combat the Kraken. Then the story continues./ Anyway. My mind is boggled at how much more awesome Revelations of the Kraken will be!!!!!
  15. By the way, I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for the name of the series, since I am out of ideas, and that I dislike the present name because it doesn't signify what in the world this series is about. Thanks for all your help.
  16. WOW, that is a lot of work you put into this, great job!
  17. Chapter 5: A New Plan Sorry, RL has been computer free the last couple days, this will make up for the lack of POA. By the way, I am giving Ultimate Steve the credit for coming up with the story in a spoiler
  18. Sorry to contradict you, but the correct term for 'many-verses' is actually multi-verses. Though might know that and is seperating that idea from the multi-verses.
  19. Sorry, RL will get in the way so much, the rest of the entries will come every two or three days. Chapter 3: Looking behind.
  20. I just watched interstellar. Now, please scale up operation Lazarus. That would be absolutely fantastic!
