Does Elon plan to eventually use the Raptor engines on the F9 boosters? It would increase the efficiency and make a F9 Fuller Thrust. I still remember this picture: With what looks like the falcon XX (which is like the ITS booster/ship) having larger engines with larger thrust (raptor except the raptors are smaller) and sharing these engines with the F9/F9H.

To answer your questions: Yes there will be contracts for resupplies. See the payload provider rules made by TheEpicSquared and I. There will be a simple government-built station which you may pay them to take paying tourists to, or they may pay you to add modules You may build your own station to avoid paying the government I don't know For my Arthur-Heavy may I use propellant crossfeed? I understand if this is not realistic for you, though it was initially considered by spacex for the Falcon Heavy. @TheEpicSquared have you downloaded the updated Arthur-1 (still called Arthur-1). It should have roll control thrusters on the upper stage now.

Yup equatorial. Make sure you are using the updated version with roll control thrusters. If it isn't posted on kerbalx tell me. Oh the updated version isn't on kerbalx whats the best way to update it (quickest)? Okay updated it now. Does the link automatically update? You will have to re-download it, sorry

Uhhh not sure you can launch that yet, considering you haven't 'officially' launched the Mk1 yet. @TheEpicSquared what do you think?

Oohhh your rocket has the same stats as mine Cairo . I guess I will have to increase my payload rating since I can, my demo payload weighed 2.660t Also I now have a record of planned Arthur Launch Vehicles.

Arthur in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (at the start planet Earth is destroyed by the Vogons) With your rule on new rockets cost 6x the original cost for the first launch, what if I have a launcher with 2 SRBs and then one with 4? There would be no other change. If I still have to pay 6x for both, I will skip the 2 SRB version.

Oh, and for the maiden launch, the specific Arthur-1 rocket will be comically named 'Let's Hope There's No Vogons'. Know what the Arthur is named after?

I am trying to build a 0.625m lifter but I am struggling a bit, partly because you can't scale stock fairings.

Discussion on the other thread, please. We are trying to keep this one clear so everyone's craft are easier to see. And no I assume. Save SRBs for later variants.

Are payloads allowed to have reaction wheels? Like for small sats. You don't normally see sats with control thrusters. Also, it isn't easy to get good roll control without having ugly and unrealistic four-way thrusters on the outside. And rn I'm not using monopropellant for them.

@TheEpicSquared could you make it clear to in the rules and mod list that people don't have to install all the mods? Also that there is a limit of 15 LPs for now? And update the LP list, it seems a lot of people are going straight to the spacecraft exchange without leaving a message here. Make sure they have read the rules Oh and make sure there is a clear link (preferably embedded) to the spacecraft exchange in the topic description and vice versa.

Ability to type inside limiters
Skylon replied to AlamoVampire's topic in KSP1 Suggestions & Development Discussion
Yeah also I would like a function to edit all engines (if they are in symmetry mode) at once so that i don't have to edit them individually. But less so. Also with shutting down engines (I imagine this would be even more important if you had a mod like dangit that broke engines)
