    Well, with KSP 2 around the corner that step is overdue. First, that catalogue is huge and basically feature complete. Now, start playing and I'm pretty sure once you dive deeper into the Kerbol System and new designs will come eventually. I'm not applying pressure, just enjoy the game and share what you think might be helpful. From now on it's in our hands to keep the catalogue in shape. I don't think there will be another game (or better catalogue) breaking bugs and we have all the tools we need. At least for me, everything I did during the last months of my career mode was to take your designs and MacGyver it to whatever I needed. And I don't feel that there's anything missing. Thank you for your hard work and see you in KSP 2!

    It's been quiet the last weeks. Any new stuff to share, @Raptor9?
  3. Jester Darrak
    I wish @Raptor9 would update his Ranger with the new SRBs but he stated multiple times he wanted to keep it vanilla. Would be interesting though, if different boosters would differentiate the Thunder 3 and Thunder 4 more like their real life analogues.

    I found what looks like a small mistake what turns into a big clusterbuck. The verniers on the LITE upper stage seem to have their dorsal/ventral and port/starbord arguments reversed. That's what prevented me, and maybe a few more, from succesfully translating during docking maneuvers.
  5. Jester Darrak
    Guys, can you imagine seeing @Raptor9's rockets being launched in KSP2? That's gonna give me some major NSFW.
  6. Jester Darrak
    @Raptor9 , can you make this? https://www.tudelft.nl/en/ae/flying-v/
  7. Jester Darrak
    So, @Raptor9, how's your first impression of the new DLC? Did you already make your F-14 analogue swing-wing capable? :D
  8. Jester Darrak
    Would it be too much of an impact on performance if you use 4 Swivels and Reliants each? Just asking because the S-IB had 4 of the outboard engines mounted on gimbals.

    You should consider adding that information on the KerbalX site and/or M3V section in your opening post. People might get confused. Because roughly 1,900m/s i dicated dV is nowhere near the actual dV.

    Windjammer question: Is there a way around the manual fuel transitioning between the EV-2L(s) and the propellant kits? The heat shields are preventing direct fuel flow towards the poodles.
  11. Jester Darrak
    Yeah, right, totally forgot you sometimes actually like to play the game itself to advance further in your career. The spoiled child that I am, I sometimes forget. Have fun then. Ps: I haven't even send Kerbals to Duna yet, I was just curious.
  12. Jester Darrak
    So, what's coming next? Couldn't find any info on any projects in the pipeline. Maybe a series of more potent SSTOs?

    Now I can finally put the Badger on Minmus. After downloading the whole catalogue again. (Better safe than sorry.^^)

    I did a few more test runs and the only way to prevent the structural failure is checking umbreakable joints the cheat menu. I even limited g loads to 2g and less. I should mention that the fairing around the RE-J10 needs to be rebuilt everytime I move certain parts around, just like the struts were making problems with subassemblies.

    I took the IV-2A with NITE Thrust Assist Pack on a Titan 3 main stage. Thrust is sufficient to get into LKO. As I said, it happens everytime the Boosters are seperated using MechJeb ascent guidance with auto staging. I will try manual staging tomorrow to see if that causes the fps and physics stuttering.
  16. Jester Darrak
    For whatever reason I keep getting structural failure on my Titans between the S3-7200 and the fairing (the first, covering the RE-J10), all on the main propulsion stage, around 1 minute into flight. Only mod used is MechJeb2, but he's set to not fly it like a fighter jet. Any idea? Edit: Double-checked it, it happens when the boosters are separated from the main stage. Looks like there is some frame drop, causing the physics to "catch up", thus exceeding craft integrity beyond structural limits.
  17. Jester Darrak
    Perfect! About the EV-7: You send it unkerbed to Jool after a Logistics Kit, followed by EV-6 that Brings the Crew, right?
  18. Jester Darrak
    Since the gravity of Minmus is 0.05g compared to that of Pol with 0.038g, is it possible to abuse the whole Pol Logistics Kit to work on Minmus or is that too much for the RCS thrusters to land the NITE on the Pad?
  19. Jester Darrak
    Thank you, found the picture. Regarding the gravity assist, do you use Tylo to get into Jool orbit or the other way around? For me it looks like gravity breaking using the main body and then getting into a retrograde orbit around one of the satellites is the easiest way. For example all my stuff around Ike is on a retrograde orbit after a Duna gravity break.
  20. Jester Darrak
    Sooo, can you give examples of the Basic, Extended and Heavy variants? I know it's everyone's choice to use it how they want or need, but I like to try them out just as they where intended to be used and modify them afterwards (if needed). And yes, I'm a lazy mothertrucker.
  21. Jester Darrak
    I am a bit confused about the Windjammer. Is it designed to have one array of fuel tanks + EV-2L or two each? Just asking because the graphics and the screenshots are somewhat paradox.
  22. Jester Darrak
    I think the cupola will also get an overhaul at some time, so maybe Squad makes two versions with one layind down and one sitting up right. Hope's last to die.
  23. Jester Darrak
    Well, I must say I'm a little dieappointed by the probe control module. I was thinking of more of a airport tower like structure with a cupola on top, a 1.25m or 1.875m tower and maybe an interated airlock, bases in the BM-A. I thought it would be wise to have the point of observation as elevated as possible. But who am I to judge? The rest is golden, although I need to replace a few modules that are already in service.
  24. Jester Darrak
    Who else is worried that the revamp of the RCS parts will make @Raptor9 hang himself because he has to redo every craft of his hangar except the planes?

    Someone had a clown for breakfast.
