  2. I remember seeing a post on these forums somewhere that was made by a person who had created a game called Saving Stages, which was a game about modifying historical rocket stages, in order to make them fully re-usable. I searched it up on steam, because it has a steam page, but it apparently was taken off of the store. I know some people were able to play it, due to there being reviews and screenshots that players have posted. I really wanted to try and play it but why did it get removed? And where can I find it now? If it was development difficulties or lack of motivation, I am sorry. The steam page also said that they were targeting a 2021 release, but the pandemic probably pushed that back.
  3. I'm excited for the idea that the game that I have been anticipating for 4 years is coming out!
  4. I use reDIRECT for my shuttles, so do I have to uninstall reDIRECT for this mod? Can I have them together? What should I do?
  5. @TonyC what mod did you use for that capsule on the right? it looks cool
  6. Hi reader, this is my new story, it is QUITE pictureheavy. I tried to do this once before and it didn't work out. Anyway, without farther ado, here is chapter 1. March 19, 1946 Gold Sands Proving Site
  7. Kirrim did some sick flips, which is surprisingly fitting for his character. Here he is mid-flip: and you may notice the arch in the background: The two dots are kerbals.
  8. Chapter 7 Jeb's First Flight February 3rd, 1944 -------------------------- Control - Jeb, are all the capsule systems nominal? Jeb - Everything's operating at peak performance. Can we launch now? Control - I won't launch until all mechanisms are operational. Jeb - But everything IS operational. Control - I know, the countdown will now commence. CT - X minus 20, 19, 18, 17, 16, 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, ignition sequence start, 2, 1, And liftoff! Jeb - YESSS! CT - Also, Wernher noted that the rocket can flip over if you pitch over too fast. Jeb - You really couldn't tell me BEFORE I started pitching? CT - Uh oh. Jeb was able to pull back on the stick hard enough to stop it from tilting forward. But, this caused the rocket to start to tilt backwards, and before long it was out of control. Luckily, Jeb was able to shut off the engine and jettison the booster. CT - Jeb, pull the emergency chutes! Jeb - I can land without them. CT - But you shouldn't. Jeb - I will. CT - Fine. The aircraft flew lower and lower, and then, it landed very rough, destroying both wings. CT - I told you you should've used the chutes. Jeb - Hey, any landing you can walk away from is a good landing.
  9. Kerbonaut Group 2 "The Fabulous Five" L to R: Jebediah, Bill, Bob, Beadun, and Orbro.
  10. Mini-chapter 2 Enter Excelsior ---------------------- March 3, 1943 Outside of the Astronaut Complex, the four kerbals of kerbonaut group 1 were chatting about the space program. Camlo - " I wonder what kind of spacecraft R&D's gonna make next." Tegas - " Maybe a spaceplane?" Desnad - " No, probably another capsule." Camlo - " I mean the Verne capsule was literally just a modified plane cockpit." Then, Gene appeared. Gene - "Kerbonauts, I have something to show you." Camlo - "Did you finish selecting the guys for Kerbonaut Group 2?" Gene - "No, but all of you should follow me." After a long trek to the runway... Gene - "Enter Excelsior."
  11. Chapter 6 And last, but not least! ----------------------- Verne 4 would be the final mission in the program, carrying Ludard Kerman as the only pilot. X minus 5, 4 , 3, Ignition, 1, LIFTOFF! This mission would have an unusual flight path, as its trajectory made it fly over both poles. Within 40 minutes, the spacecraft was in orbit. After about 3 hours in orbit, Verne 4 had to begin reentry, and the retropack was fired. About 10 minutes after the retro burn, the spacecraft entered the atmosphere. Soon after reentry, the parachute and landing bag were both deployed And soon after that, the final Verne mission had touched down. ( I wasn't able to get that many screenshots of ascent due to the rocket flipping over on multiple attempts)
  12. Chapter 5 The Speech --------------- Shortly before the launch of Verne 4, Joseph Franklin Kerman, newly elected president of Kerlin, was scheduled to give a speech on the grounds of Karvard Science center, this is what it said.
  13. hello everyone, sorry for my long hiatus, me and my family had to move houses, i will soon start uploading more chapters
  14. random photos that i had these were both put near the mun with cheats
  15. yes i had that on to reach space because with regular fuel it couldnt reach space
  16. I'm having a weird bug where whenever I launch blue steel it keeps on accelerating even when the engine is off which makes it impossible to land
  17. My vostok with an orbital module is this cursed
  18. -Chapter 4- Following Suit June 3rd, 1941 Verne 3 would be the first mission to orbit Kerbin Desnad would be the one flying this historic mission Even though he didn't look scared, oh boy was he. Control: "X-minus 5 minutes, clear the firing area, clear the firing area." Desnad began trembling, he could think of a million things that could go wrong. Control: "X-minus 1 minute." Control: "X minus 20, 19, 18, 17, 16, 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, Fire command, FIRE COMMAND! The engines roared Desnad: "AAAHH!" (this went on for a while) Control: "Liftoff! Godspeed Desnad!" Desnad kept on screaming Control:" Booster separation in 3, 2, 1." BOOM! was the sound that the explosive bolts made -1 minute later- Control: "Main engine cutoff." The rocket coasted to its apogee Control: "KOI in 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, Ignition." Just when he had calmed back down, Desnad started screaming again. And just as the burn started, it stopped. Control: "MECO and capsule separation." Desnad: "Jesus Khrist that was stressful." -92 min later- Control:" Deorbit burn in 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0." The retro rocket fired for around 30 seconds and then cut off. -4 min later- Desnand: "Reentry in just a second, oh no." The capsule streaked across the sky -3 min later- Desnad: "Chute is deployed." Desnad: "Touchdown!" Desnad then barfed everything he had ate in the past 2 days
