Don't know, this is a bad line of questioning. This thread remembers his art work, talking about moderator action can only incur further moderator action. PM someone if you really want to know I think it was Ogin that locked the tread.

The truth has been spoken but then again how can we even begin to talk about reality? Our kerbs survive centuries in space inside the equivalent of a mercury capsule. We can create thrust from spinning fuel tanks and fly forever in gliders. Oceans have the density of lead and planets are denser than Uranium by a fair bit. I will forgive the lack of realism for the sake of art but more importantly because of the GODLIHOOD OF JEBEDIAH AND MOAR BOOOOSTERS!!!!! (please don't even try to disagree with jeb)

Rough manner, yes. Deserving of a permaban? I can't even judge. Looking at his last posts I didn't see anything deserving of moderation so it must have been something else. Having said that this is a dangerous topic. . . . So back to the point. He did really good art. I for one will miss it, which was the whole point of the video.

May he live long and Prosper

I am solving the problem! WOOT! I am adding fuel into the inter stage (and nosecones for that matter) The different amounts of fuel will allow the rocket to fly more accurately. Zaran has been working very hard and so everyone needs to give him a round of applause. First release before the weekend. No that isn't a release date. Yes it's a promise.

All of Kerbin is flashing with light

That is exactly what I did.

I had a thought for the problem. Instead of telling everyone to build there own payloads that end up being too cheep for balancing issues, maybe have some parts made that are specifically designed to make the missions more challenging. Like for the comsat missions actually have a 'comsat' part. This would also help with doing multiple missions at once. Also can you make "recycle" into an "end flight" type button that deletes the craft?

If you want to help test the Delta IV send me a PM and I will send you RC1. Other testers, anything to report? Bugs I should fix?

Is this a bug report or an issue designing a craft?

.14 paid $15 and it was the best money I spent in my entire life. . . . took me altogether too long to join the forums though. I feel a little like I robbed squad blind. TAKE MY FREAKING MONEYS!!!!! TAKE THEM NOW!!!!!

It would be a fair amount of work for something fairly unimportant. Why do you use the plugin if you don't want consequences? That is the whole point of career mode. If you can immediately recover from anything then you have created a "sandbox" which isn't quite the point of this plugin.

He needs to apply smooth shading as usual It's ok fixes things every time. If you have already done smooth shading make sure you look at your edge split modifier and turn it to 89 degrees or something to finish smoothing that out.

Alright count me in shall you. I have a small channel of 60ish subs 15k ish views. I do KSPLPs and Mod reviews as well as update spotlights https://www.youtube.com/user/dragonrider66511

Almost ready. . . . but not quite yet.

You never, ever, ask for release dates. never.

That fixed everything. Thank you greatly. I very much appreciate the help.

I included an icon for rover missions, not sure how to actually implement them though.

The Stack is complete. After I finish squashing some collision mesh bugs I will push a testing and balancing version. Testers contact me via PM.

There is an edge split modifier on the models it is set at 30 degrees which is default I believe. I am using KSP Diffuse shaders on both of them. Thanks though.

Blender. Do you know how to set sharpness on the model? I'm sort of new to the whole concept. I sorta figured it out on the fly with youtube videos.

Does someone know what is causing this or what I can do to fix it? Thanks.

You should add an above ground altitude parameter. This would be more useful than above sea level parameter for many things.

Wow, everyone taking the easy route out eh? First you need to survive EDL. I would propose some form of two stage re-entry using lifting guidance like the techniques employed by Apollo and Curiosity. This give pinpoint landing accuracy for picking the most hospitable locations on the surface which would be prescouted using probes. This probes would also test techniques for withstanding the surface pressure and harsh environment. Parachutes would give easily enough drag to allow an unpowered descent. Second is craft design. I would suggest a Bathysphere type design. Good for re-entry (proved by soyuz) withstands pressure well. Allows for a minimal number of facets for acid to cause trouble at. The only blemishes would be for extending legs, and the engine. A single airlock allows egress (more on this later). Comms would be established via a small ruggedized plastic balloon that would carry a wire aloft beyond the worst of the atmosphere. A rover could fold out from the lower regions of the sphere for extra mobility. The sphere would be large with two floors and an engineering section (containing three chemical rockets and a nerva that runs on gas extracted from the atmosphere during Venus Ascent) EVAing would be less like wearing a spacesuit and more like donning a turn of the century diving suit. It will be very heavy. Maybe the exoskeleton could contain some servos to aid the astronaut? Power would be supplied by the on board reactor that also runs the NERVA. The stay would be short and after takeoff the craft would use a Mercury gravity assist to slingshot back to Earth, with a travel time of not more than 300 days. This limits radiation exposure. Th Bathysphere design inherently offers a fair amount of radiation protection due to the structural elements necessary for the atmospheric pressure on Venus. Supplies would be freeze dried and stored maybe a small supplementary hydroponics lab but Venus is not going to permit any kind of inflatable habitat for growing food. What do you think? Please give comments and criticism.

These are some really cool changes. Any chance the additional features come in English though? I would love a "Don't use RCS" feature and the air breathing engine dV is pretty useful to
