I highly doubt they got rid of autostruts, have you turned advanced tweakables on?

Nice! i'm assuming thats modded, because that cockpit dosent look stock. The bombs are fine, it dosent matter if they launch in pairs, as long as theres atleast four. so now there are 2 entries. I'm gonna wait until atleast one other person (hopefully) enters, then put the poll up.

But ksp only renders physics to 2km...

Nice plane! I'll enter that into the poll, and get to work on the assignment. BDac is allowed, but will be in a different category. For the tail mounted gun, I was thinking nothing more than a decouplers with seperatrons attached pointing backwards. As for the challenge, it is slightly inspired by your thread a while back, but I made it a bit more accessible, as yours required mods. Any mods, but if you use them it will be voted on in a different catergory. You don't have to be good at stock weapons, the main point is the plane. All you need is a radial ore tank on a decoupler. Hope you try it! By the way, the "assignment" will roughly entail flying out to the desert continent, bombing an airfield I'm going to build, then flying back to the KSC, with a refuelling stop positioned somewhere near the desert continent, if needed.

I don't think I can battle @Joseph Kerman fairly, his lightest ship is about three times the weight of my heaviest one, and I don't really want to battle where the other person has 500+ ton advantage.

I thought Prometheus was GMI building the nuke to wipe out HKA in one shot, but it's a different project? Cool. I'm really interested to find out who was in the escape pod that was blown off the aegis, as there was the closeup on the window, and one of the crew shouted "im so sorry <insert name here>!" Which I interpreted as him being sorry for running to the escape pod.

Um, who? There are a maximum of nine right now, who is the last one? oh yeah, I forgot.

I have a mining freighter basically finished right now, it is designed to constantly refuel itself of asteroids and dump off excess ore to a small, lightly armed space station trade hub, which has one of my stock hinge turrets on it. This isn't quite finished yet, but I have been working on civilian freighters and mining vessels a lot recently, and should probably post them at some point.

Ok, just use the match ups in mine. Right now frozen heart dosent have a fleet ready, and alphasus only has small ships like me, but apart from that I think everyone is ready.

There used to be a section of the store which linked to a website which did pretty much exactly what you described, but it stopped awhile back, I dont think they were making a profit. so its definitley possible, and has been done before.

I hope they're rechargeables.

Oh look! It's TheEpicSkewered!

how bout I go against alphausus or someone? as we have already battled 3 times. And I think you forgot scriptkitt3h and frozen_heart.

As I was watching a documentary on American military aircraft, a thought struck me: if planes are chosen to be used in competitions, why not do it that way on the forums? So I came up with this. Weekly, I will give out loose specifications and requirements to build planes, and then put all through a assignment to prove it can fulfil its role, and finally put entries for that week in a poll, for people to vote on the best ones. It will work in two parts, the first part being the voting, and the second part being the plane completing an "assignment" I'll prepare a save of. The winner gets a shiny badge I will make in paint, and possibly get to choose the next set of specifications. Week 1: Light Bomber Class: Light bomber You are to design a light bomber designed to be able to fly inter-continental solo missions, with one refuel stop. It should carry at least 4 Radial ore tank bombs, and have at least a crew of 2, with the IVA providing front and back field of view, to spot interceptors or missiles. Rear mounted weapons would be good, but definitely not necessary. Weight: maximum 35 tons Speed: at least 200m/s under 10km Payload: at least 4 full Radial ore tank bombs Range: at least able to reach the desert continent with one re-fueling stop Crew: at least one pilot and one bomb-aimer, possibly a gunner, if your plane has a rear gun Voting poll: http://www.strawpoll.me/13090973 Winner: @NotAnAimbot's RBF-6 Longbow Week 2: Military Transport Proving mission and voting poll: Winner: @Servo's C-120 Meridian Week 3: Naval Fighter Proving Mission and Voting Poll: Winner: @sdj64's FX Falcon Week 4: Cloud Seeding Plane Proving Mission and Poll: Winners: @Speeding Mullet's Mullet Dyne MD-82 Twin Equinox and @Vexnium's A107AH Hinox Week 5: Poll: Winners: @Vexnium's CA179S Mass, @Ozelui's Wasp and @NotAnAimbot's MDL F-2F+ Super Predator Week 6: Amphibious Aircraft Poll: Winner: Winner: @Vexnium's CA600N Humpback Week 7: Poll: Winners: @Joseph Kerman's Gilder and @Bob_Saget54's Falcon Mk1 Week 8: Rocket Plane Poll: I hope you enter!

Are we going to get this tournament started then? How many people would be doing it, and how many people are ready for it? Also, what are we going to do about weight classes? Most will be negotiable, but some people build ships with completely different tonnages to others that I don't think it could work.

Welcome to the forum!

Thats bececause they havent uptdated yet. I'm sticking to 1.2.2 until scatterer and eve is uptdated. but the cheat menu doosent have a rendevous function. Edit: yes it does. Silly me.

1.3 is out! Multi vessel action groups! A whole 3 parts added with asteroid day. Ummm... wordy things... Yeah, multi vessel action groups are the only thing I'm excited about. Just have to wait for EVE and Scatterer and hyperedit to uptdate, and my turret should live up to its potential!

Oh that's strange, I must have accidentally used a photo of a prototype version or something. You can see them here in this picture:

I don't think the challenges can rely on mods.

Or, to switch to a specific vessel, you could Alt+Click it. Removes all hassle from cycling.

Maybe an "alternate power methods" challenge, where you have to get as high as possible without using engine parts.

It might look a bit wrong due to the camera angle, but it is definitely Stock. I don't have any part mods installed, just EVE and scatterer.

Don't make claims you can't prove.
