Unless you have unlocked heatshields your pretty much stuck with either avoiding re-entering the atmosphere or doing large retrograde burns with an engine to slow you down.

The problem with multiplayer is that whatever solution people may think up, there will always be a compromise.

Just saying, why on earth would you ask you teacher about a game forum? And in my opinion this forum is quite good compared to others I have experienced.

I'd like to see this, as the closest we have to this now is Kerbals floating around in crew modules for rescue missions.

With all the rockets falling out of the sky no wonder Kerbals are the only life on Kerbin.

Landed on Minmus, then returned with a large amount of science on board. Would have been perfect if the science didn't blow up. Fortunately the heat shield , which was below the Science Jr. that blew up, became wedged at the bottom of the command module, therefore saving it from overheating. However, the EVA reports stored in the capsule survived.

Build a miner ship and sent it to Minmus, only to realise that I forgot a drill. I then sent a drill-equipped rover, which flipped and crashed in the low gravity.

If you want weapons, install BDArmoury.

Personally I think it was formed in the Kerbol System's equivalent of the Kuiper Belt, and slingshoted into the Jool System by Eeloo.

The pilot needs to be 1 or more stars to have prograde/retrograde.

I think I'll have a shot at this, considering I have a <0.7 tons SSTO, that with more fuel and therefore power should work.

I think I'll use a varient of this as a rescue craft.

In my career save re-entered probe first, as I had to use the probe which was on the top of a manned capsule (the probe was destined for the Mun) as a heatshield as due to bad design ended up having to use my heat shield as a decoupler.

Yeah, it was a real shallow re-entry as I only has a limited amount of RCS fuel - the craft escaped the atmosphere twice before slowing down enough to stay in the atmosphere, and before the first re-entry the apoapsis was up around the Mun.

Performed my first orbital rendevous (sort of, with use of the jetpack for the last km or so). Jeb is safe in the craft, but Bill is still out there. Going to try using the prodigous amounts of RCS fuel the craft have though. Edit: So I've decided to sent the craft containing Jeb and Val home, then come back for Bill. Edit 2: Performed a very dangerous aerobrake, with only 39.92 out of 800 ablator left on Jeb and Val's capsule.

This shouldn't really be in KSP discussion, considering that a girandola is a firework.

2 in a rover.

If I were to implement multiplayer, I'd make it so that everyone plays as a specific kerbal on a single mission, and make it so that only the mission commander (person hosting the server) can warp.

Scott Manley did a video on the Atlas V 411, however that also has asymmetrical thrust so in theory it should be the same. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-o6BLBzsUA

Put my Jool probe into a high Jool orbit, burned retrograde then got an encounter with Tylo - free orbit reducer

About to do a burn to send a probe lander to the Jool system, not chosen the moon to land on yet though.

Herding Ground Crew was pretty funny.

Yep, this is all I use it for.
