Unfortunately, whether it starts off pro- or anti-, discussions of Apollo deniers always seem to degenerate into arguments, which is why the forum has reluctantly instituted a rule against discussing conspiracy theories (2.2.f). Closing the thread now.

Just one player's opinion: the new parts look the way they do because they're intended to resemble real NASA parts, which are not festooned with extraneous details.

I thought I was the only one doing this! Somehow, I failed to notice that you started it a couple of months before I got the idea.

Please don't yell at each other in bold and font sizes, and let's watch the tone even in regular old generic type, eh guys?

Well, welcome back.

Great for rovers, but at least occasionally, leaving Kerbals in them can cause spontaneous craft detonations during docking. :'(

The videos have been dealt with, so it's not an issue anymore. Please return to discussing the mod that is the subject of the thread.

That's how it's supposed to work. The one is meant to be an alternative to the other, and both can't be active at the same time.

Daman453, I'm afraid that this does not meet several points of the challenge guidelines. Among other issues, you haven't specified the means of determining a winner, and I suspect your goal is not possible at all because nothing, including light sources, is actively simulated farther away than a 2.25km radius. Please give the idea some thought and decide whether or not you'd like to re-submit it, but for the moment, this thread will be closed.

There's no need to speculate about when the Dailys get posted. They get posted when Rowsdower puts them together, and he's been quite busy lately with arrangements for, travel time to/from, and participating in the GDC. And now that the question of this thread has been answered, it's time to close it.

Let's please not rehash the pro/anti-Mechjeb argument again. OP's question was about the efficiency, not the morality of using Mechjeb, so let's discuss it in those terms. And since that probably will involve numbers and maybe even some math-type-stuff, let's just ease this thread over to gameplay questions, alrighty?

Got a mod question? Why not ask it in the add-on section? Oh! Nevermind, this thread is already there.

Westi29, your enthusiasm is admirable but it is getting to be a lot of material to squeeze into this kind of thread. From now on, please post that sort of thing in the sub-forum for player-made videos. Thank you!

Merged into the existing thread on this subject. Carry on.

Welcome back, WindShieIds.

I'm curious. There is an awful lot of rotating machinery in the world already, and there has been at least since the industrial revolution. During that time, these machines have been built, maintained, studied, and minutely scrutinized by experts trying to squeeze ever-better performance out of them, using precision measuring devices and state-of-the-art physics, chemistry, and other sciences. How do suppose it is that you've managed to discover something they all overlooked?

Don't let the discussion degenerate into insults, guys.

Yep, this is a golden oldie. ZooNamedGames, if you'd like to build ships for people, why do you post an offer in the Rocket Builders thread? That's where people will go to look for this sort of thing. Meanwhile, closing this thread.

Currently, Squad has no plans to issue any DLC, so there's no point in going through those arguments again. Let's please drop the subject before things get nasty.

"Hey! It's a necro! Let's all post in it 75 more times pointing it out and making fun of it!" Is it necessary to do this every time, guys?

I like docking lots of small things to make one big thing.

Since this is a mod function which isn't the basic game, the question has been moved to add-on affairs to avoid confusion.

This question is 5 months old, and OP hasn't posted since. I think by now he has either solved the problem or quit KSP or both. RIP, thread.

I don't think you've noticed just how big Mun is. It would take a couple of days of real-time, full-time, to drive half-way around it. And that's assuming you don't crash along the way, which is a large risk, because the terrain is quite rough and the light gravity won't help you cling to it. Do yourself a favor and fly to the other Kerbal, even if it means sending a second ship for him.

Are you suggesting this is bad for the US? If 5 of the 9 contenders are American, we have a 56% chance of winning the competition. (This is a gross simplification, of course, since the competition isn't simply a random selection. Still, you get the idea.)
