With regard to some removed posts, please restrict the discussion in this thread to the mod in question, and if you see someone who is not doing that, simply hit the report button on the post rather than replying to it.

I made a version of this for myself, but yours is tidier. (Also, thread moved to the how-to section.)

Hello Campbell, and welcome to the forum. I visit the Kerbal reddit sometimes, too, but the community here is more active. I expect you'll like it.

Hello, and welcome to the forum. You won't be sorry if you upgrade to the full game. (And I don't get a share of that, so it's advice rather than a sales-pitch.)

Vas, I'm afraid you've misunderstood some things. The game seems incomplete because it IS incomplete, but development has nowhere near stopped. We get updates with bugfixes, new features, and new parts several times per year (but not on any kind of regular schedule). There are some items on the What Not to Suggest list which Squad has said they will never include in the game, but that's not why they were included on the list. Some things were included because they are already planned so there's no need to ask for them, some were added because they've been talked to death and it's time to move on to new discussion subjects, and a few were put on there because they cause nasty arguments every time they come up. The list is not Squad's yes/no list. It is the list of things we have found which tend to cause problems on the forum.

This gameplay/how-to question has been moved to the Gameplay Questions sub-forum.

Hit the submit button on 5 posts, and you're set, though there can be a little delay while the software makes the change. Which doesn't matter now, since I see you're at 8, but there you go.

I do not know the specifics of his situation, and it wouldn't be my place to say if I did know. That's what "confidential" means. So seriously now, please return to the subject of the thread.

Duplicate thread closed.

Today is your lucky day (or 48 hours, but whatever)!

Please remember that another person's account information is private and confidential, and not a subject for discussion on the forum. If the person in question wants to tell you about it, that's fine, but please don't ask about it here, nor repeat what he/she has said here. Back to the subject of KSP ships...

Hello real Hary R, and welcome to the forum.

Your masses docked to segment 5 do not appear to be symmetrical. If that rover-looking-assembly is on the side towards which the ship is deflecting, I think you've found your problem. It may have worked when the segments were assembled in a different order and it was closer to the COM and therefore was getting less of a boost from leverage. Also, check the amount of fuel in the tanks on those side-assemblies, as they may not be draining the way you expect them to, creating an imbalance. Interesting ship design, by the way. But in interplanetary travel, you'll find that fuel efficiency is much more important than thrust. I'd suggest replacing those big engines with LV-Ns. Or are they modded LV-Ns? Anyway, good luck.

Moved to the Forum Forum, or whatever we're calling it now. And if you guys really want to know what it's like to be banned, we can arrange for you to find out. Muwahahaha!

Hello Rjtaml, and welcome to the forum. You will need to post a few more times (to prove you are not a spambot) before your account status changes and you have permission to personalize your account with an avatar. Someome will probably come along in a moment and recommend a skybox mod for you, but that's not my area of expertise. One thing I might be able to help with, though, is Mun missions. I wrote an illustrated walkthrough which comes with a (sandbox) trainer ship you can download. You can find it here. I hope it helps. It is harder to land without parachutes, isn't it? But you'll get it with practice.

With regard to some removed posts: the subject of this thread is reminiscing about early versions of KSP. If you want to discuss the current course of the game's development, the proper spot for that is the Suggestions & Development sub-forum. And, as always, please stick to the topic and avoid evaluating each other's personalities.

Well. This didn't get off to a very good start. Newbies are going to ask question most of us have seen before, and there's no harm in it. Can we be a bit more patient with them, please? Anyway, the current KSP aerodynamic system is... odd. Nosecones actually increase drag, but do so by less than most parts. So putting them on the front of a ship can help keep the nose pointed forward-with-respect-to-airflow, but do increase total drag. Right now, players mostly use them for aesthetic purposes.

Since this thread is clearly about mods and not the stock game, it will not be innappropriately closed. It will, however, be appropriately moved to Add-on Affairs, where mod maters are discussed.

The planets are scaled the way they are for the gameplay reason of keeping flights to a reasonable game timeframe, and Squad is against the idea of changing that. Also, the subject has been discussed endlessly, without result, to the point that it has been added to the list of subjects not to suggest on this forum, so this thread will be closed now.

We don't know. We're not Squad employees. If you meant devs rather than mods, even they could only give you a preliminary list because things are occasionally moved up or postponed. So if, as we've seen, even what is planned for .24 is subject to revision, there really isn't an answer for the question of what will be in .25.

Please keep the discussion to the subject of the thread rather than the people in the thread. Also, please take the anger down a notch.

It's not clear to me what is being suggested here. Competition or conflict? If conflict is what you're looking for, it is not going to happen in stock KSP. HarvesteR has been quite firm about that, and weaponry in KSP is on the list of things not to suggest.

Merged into the existing thread about this game.

You can expect a lot of that sort of thing in your KSP future.
