If you don't want to use the report button to nominate a thread, just send a moderator a PM. No one will force you to do it through a report. Now please get back to honoring this month's selections.

It's December already? Huh. When did that happen? We didn't get many nominations this time. We can't honor them if you don't nominate them, folks. But here are the ones you felt and we felt were deserving this month. ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** @adsii1970 liked this thread pretty well, and so did many other folks. The lights add color, but they're not just eye candy and actually convey useful information about game parts. It's the kind of meticulous work @Snark puts into everything he does, including moderating. ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** Next up is @cratercracker's ruminations on why he used to like KSP. And why he still does. Nominated by @The_Cat_In_Space. ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** What gamer doesn't like to brag? None of us, that's who. And now here's your chance, as @AlamoVampire wants to know about... You may have told your best story already. So what? Tell it again. ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** Thank you to those who nominated and congratulations to those who were selected. Wear your badge with pride.

It seems it is not.

Hit F9 and went back not a few minutes, as I expected, but 4 days of real time. Auto-save was unusable for some reason I can't recall.

That is an interesting and unusual design.

No need to delete your posts but a moderator can lock the thread for you, which I have done.

I don't think there's anything to be done about that except careful placement and a lot of adjusting. You may need struts to hold the relative positions until it reaches weightlessness, if that's what you're asking about.

As others have noted, it's hard enough to make a rocket which can resist the vertical compression of riding on its thrust against gravity, so making one which could also resist bending forces as it moved through a curve would complicate the problem and add to structural mass. And as we know from playing KSP, you'd want to launch vertically to get through the thickest part of the atmosphere as quickly as possible, and coming off a launch facility at anything other than 90 degrees to the ground would prolong that. In short, a swoop like this would seem to make things harder rather than easier.

I would say that it is Kerbal enough to be in the off-topic Lounge but not Kerbal enough to be in General Discussions. And so, moved.

Could you upload it to a file sharing site such as Imgur.com and then copy the link here? Then we'd be able to see it.

What aspect of that isn't working? It looks good to me.

Today I want to complain about people debating the ethics of mass transit in the complaints thread instead of complaining about things.

Thank you for your feedback, but now having expressed your opinion somewhat brusquely, please move on to other mods you find more pleasing. In fact, let's all just move on, eh? No need to get into an argument about this.

Genonovast has it. A mission has to leave atmo for KSP to consider it sub-orbital. The speed you attain while doing so is irrelevant.

Okay.

Overlapping threads have been locked, then merged, then locked some more.

You were correct.

So I guess this is a game? Moved to Games.

Here's a funny thing which happened today. The funny-thing-today thread got taken over by Star Wars. Please start another thread for that if you want to pursue it, guys.

My god! It's full of nonsense!

Your wheels are rotated 90 degrees. They visually touch the ground but are not actually in contact with it. The mount needs to be aligned vertically.
