Thank you!

KSP 2. Well I'll be shot into space on a Whackjob monstrosity. Nice work.

First mission since i hadn't been playing for about 2+ years, slapped together a quick SRB, capsule, parachute, and go! ....hmm, apparently fins are no longer an optional thing. *sweeps Jebediah up from across the landscape* (the capsule actually survived the first 2 or 3 bounces!) With Jebediah Kerman? It's practically a guarantee. He probably got out and pushed the capsule with his EVA pack to make sure it happened.

Well, after randomly running into what turned out to be a fellow KSP player at lunch today (seriously, what a coincidence!) I'm here on a slightly newer refurb laptop, downloading 1.4.2. Considering my first version was 0.20 (I think, it was $18!), i'm looking forward to exploring again! Heeeeeeeeeere we go again!

I know he landed in the wrong place, but planting that plane on top of the VAB has to be worth a Jeb point or something!

If whackjob enters, it would be the self-destructing Enterprise from Star Trek III

ihtoit: you deserve a hug.

He is The Whack. If there's a patron saint of KSP, he's it. In fact, I propose that Squad dedicate to him the ultimate honor: Naming a Kerbal after him.

"reasonable part count" and "whackjob" are three words i didn't really expect to see in the same forum anytime soon...

Hah. Why am I not surprised an old EV hand would be doing impossible things around the KSP forums?

On behalf of pretty much everyone here on the Kerbal forums, may I just nominate this for "yes, it wouldn't be KSP without THIS " Award.

Although if they have Star Trek on Kerbin, all the Klingon names probably start with "H"!

My first flight was a suborbital test hop to see how far a single tank and engine would take a capsule + parachute. Then 2 tanks, 3 tanks, etc. That was 0.13, then stopped playing around 0.18 because the lag just got so bad. Back with 0.23, there's been some serious code optimization and I can play the game again! (I've got a laptop, not huge horsepower.)

Thanks, Collin! What worried me was that usually the indicator changes color and this time it didn't.

Thanks, much obliged for the help!
