  1. I'm pretty sure fairings are not breakable like solar panels. I have hit them with 2.5 ton projectiles travelling at 400+m/s designed specifically for blowing up armoured ships, and they werent even scratched.
  2. I was confused by the 3 craft as well, it was a minimum, not a maximum number of crafts. Go ahead.
  3. That's still not really how scoring works... maybe we could have too catergories. "Voted Best" and "Most Functional"
  4. What? Timezones are tricky. For me, I've just had a lie-in and been up half an hour. Here's the poll: http://www.strawpoll.me/13475179
  5. It's not really a fuss... I'd just prefer if it's done today because we're actually on time right now. Are there going to be any last minute entries? As I just made a poll.
  6. It should be able to maintain (and possibly increase) speed and altitude for six minutes. That's basically the definition of flight.
  7. I'll have one tomorrow. And I don't mind which side it's on.
  8. Well usually you attach them to your ship, turn them on, and throttle up. They are very niche, only normally used for small probes. Great looking craft cupcake!
  9. McDonnell Douglas! The F/A-18A-C are great, I don't really like the Boeing E-F variants.
  10. Dear god. This just makes me sad. At 4:00, he says that "as high as ametuer balloonists and ametuer rocketeers have ever gone, the sea remains flat", and I'm shouting at my screen "Have you ever LAUNCHED a High Altitude Balloon!?" I have an SD card with 6000+ photos of Earth taken from a maximum height of 33.5km, and everyone of them, though accentuated by a fisheye lens, clearly show curvature. <shakes head>

      Can we get em digitally on the cloud 'cuz I know a pair of twins who won't believe  images from an SR-71 (online of course)

      The images? Sure. give me a day or two, I need to find my laptop to read the Micro SD.

  11. Would you like my "6th gen" drone fighter? (The pictures are the Stock version) Not held back by smelly human pilots, it can pull 25gs in a turn, take off and land on carriers, and carry a powered guided anti air or anti ground bomb in its internal weapons bays. The BDA version features an inline Vulcan cannon, dual AIM-120 AMRAAMs, four AIM-9 Sidewinders, and a modified powered bomb with an high explosive warhead strapped on the front in its weapons bay. (The bomb is built out of stock parts, however it is very easy to use against air targets. Just launch it, switch to it, turn on SAS, set the target, and select target hold. Ground targets have to be guided in manually though)
  12. The latest version of the game is 1.3. You've got pretty much no chance of this being fixed if it's a problem on KSP's end, as 1.2.2 is no longer supported. Hope this helps!
  13. The way thrust limiter currently works is by giving you a slider to limit maximum thrust. However, there is no way to limit minimum thrust. What I propose is an upgrade to the slider, allowing it to be slid at both ends. A real world example of this is the SuperDraco engine, which can throttle from 20% to 100% thrust. This would be handy for people who make replicas. (due to spool up times it would probably have to be only available to rocket engines) There are probably quite a few problems with this, please poke holes as you see fit.
  14. I don't think you can. But even if you could, I wouldn't recommend it, it would be like using a piece of fruit as a TV remote. The game was made for PC, and the controls were made for keyboard, and the experience would be significantly worse using a controller. Edit: you might be able to. Plug in your controller, go into settings > inputs, then try and bind keys to controller buttons. It might recognise the thumb sticks as joysticks.
  15. Is it ok if I use one of the wings of the Eos? As they are both self contained ships.
  16. More set pieces for Troubled Waters. Looks like i have to give my pilots some close formation flying training...
  17. I let you keep your garden, then I mediate for days, finding true moral purpose, placing myself on a metaphorical philosophical hill. My Metaphorical Hill.
  18. Really interesting idea, but that's not really how scoring works... it's done by a poll. And there is no limit to entries, as that's no fun.
  19. I've decided to make a 1:1 replica of the F-22, because why not? Thoughts on the cockpit? I think it's a bit too short.
  20. Hmmm... It's still a draw, so I'll tell you what, we'll decide this... with a race! First to reply between @Joseph Kerman and @Bob_Saget54 gets to do next week.
  21. I put I-Beams there to specifically stop that from happening. Are they not working? (are the stabilisers working?)
  22. What?! The engines explode... It must be the mods your using, I've done multiple dogfights with the same version of the craft your using, and had no problems. Might just have to make a plane specifically designed for this.
