  1. Hi! Is there an official twitter account of KSP? Also, if I want some news about the development of this game, is there any twitter account I should follow?
  2. So far, I killed 29 kerbals in my space program. Strangely, all of those deaths Occurred during testing a plane (or a spaceplane): when I use a capsule I alway use an abort system but when it come to planes, there is none(except for ONE plane which use parachutes to avoid crashes). The worst is that I don't even care about those deaths.
  3. Yes, and the best part of the stream will start tomorrow at 9h00 EST! I can't wait for that
  4. yeah... I will be watching this with a LOT of excitement: I missed Curiosity's landing and I don't want to miss this!
  5. Hi! In case you don't know, a lander is about to land on a comet, his name is Philae. It will separate from the it's mothership this wednesday, the signal of the landing is expected is arrive on earth at 11h02(EST). If you want to see it live, there is three link for that(I'm not sure which one will provide the stream but it will start wednesday at 9H00 EST): -http://rosetta.esa.int the webcast start tomorrow at 2h00pm(EST) -http://new.livestream.com/ESA/cometlanding It is linked from the previous link as "Watch on live-stream?" so I think this is the good link -http://www.livestream.com/EuroSpaceAgency the place for the ESA live-stream. Have a nice day! (I know there is already a thread for about that mission but I made a new threa to give the link because I wanted it to be more visible: if I posts the link on the mission's thread, it will probably get lost, let alone the fact that not everyone who want to see the landing in a live-stream will read that thread.
  6. Great mod!! Out of curiosity, why does the water structures(the one that are in a folder) are way heavier than the land structures? I mean, for the runway and helipad my game work fine but when I try to take-off from the carrier, my game lag(and crash if I have all the water structures).

  8. I can already see some challenge like: go to the mün with tier one buildings! What's the biggest asteroid you can bring back at KSC with tiers two buildings etc...
  9. I though this XKCD comic was quite related to the subject In case you wonder, the title text is ("Cheater!" "Hey, gaming on wifi? You have only yourself to blame.")
  10. When you hear that the fuels tanks, decouplers etc... cost a lot in a rocket, you wonder: "wait, if it cost so much, why don't they mod the engines to give it a lot of thrust and a extremely hight Isp???" Bonus point if you call NASA to tell them your idea about modding engines.
  11. Just a little question, the landing is expected to take place the 12 november, the confirmation of the landing(or the crash :\) is expected to arrive at 11:02 EST. My question is: where can I know if it has landed or not as soon as possible? Will there be a "live" stream(there is a lot of delay) or the landing? A live stream of the mission control room? Just a internet page where the result will appear when the signal arrive?
  12. So it mean that if I make a rocket with the center of thrust not point upward, mechjeb will take that in account? Will it work with the plugin Sarbian made for the auto-gimbal mod?(the one that was auto-gimballing the engine so that the center of thrust was alway aligned with the center on mass)
  13. Ok guys, I accomplished my goal! I have 1000 images for my screen saver! I know I could have done something more useful, but....
  14. Thank you for the advice Oh, anyone know a website that could tell me if I have double image? It's kind of hard to compare each image if I think I already have a given image :\
  15. Yes but I have 254 image to find... I can't imagine what to search in google image in order to find them: I did that for the first 100 and it was quite long; I can't even imagine how long it would be if I did that for more than 250 images.
  16. 855 post... soon I will reach 1k! Anyway, before that I have two goal to accomplish: reach 1000 images for my screensaver and learn by heart 1000 digits of Pi(the first 3 isn't included). (call me crazy)
  17. Hi! I'm currently searching pictures for my screen saver(so far, I have 756 images and my goal is 1000, call me crazy if you want). However, I can't find a site that has good images(in HD( and, this is quite important, that has A LOT of images! I particularly like pictures about space, science and animals. Oh, and I already went trough the "space and science" and "animals" category of the Nationals Geographic wallpapers. Thank you!
  18. I'm mostly a builder. But also a moder because I have a lot of mods that enhance my KSP experience(what else would I download mods?!). Hoewever, those mods aren't mods that add rocket part but other part that won't help me in making the rocket like KAS(it help my space station to being a little less wobbly), scan sat(just for the fun of making maps ) or Dangit(for the fun of having failures during mission and making the rockets with some modification to handle those failures) and some aesthetics mods like deadly reentry: I removed the plugin part to keep the parts only
  19. Try something different! (yeah, probably the worst advice ever to someone who had lose inspiration(*)) Seriously, check your ship, and ask yourself: can I make a new, different version of that craft that would work better? I mean: you have a heavy lifter? Try to do a launcher that can raise more weight is space, a launcher that cost less, a very small launcher, a more stabler launcher(**)! (**) I say that because I did that with my old space shuttle. The old one was terribly unstable during launch and could only launch *1* kerbal in orbit. Now, I have two version of a new space shuttle which is more stable and has more utility. The first version can bring 6 kerbal in orbit and dock to a station, the launch in it itself cost 2.5 time less than the old shuttle(!) The second version, have a very different set of wing(the previous arrangement was causing some problems during landings) and have two cargo bay. I already launched two sat in a single launch and brought back a dummy satellite just to prove I could do it.(this version doesn't have the ability to dock with a station.(technically it could by using the docking port in te cargo bay but it would be VERY difficult, try retrieve a satellite and you will understand). oh, and because this is KSP: I used the second version(the one that doesn't dock) and put the small inline docking port(size mk1) in the cargo bay(by placing it to the docking port). So now, I'll dock to a station using a docking port placed on another docking port... oh, and if you want, I can send you the .craft file, we never know: maybe it will give you inspiration for a better shuttle(because I know that my new one can be better)! (*) English is not my first language. The sentence sound weird to me but I couldn't think of another way to saying it; sorry for the (possible) errors in it :\
  20. I still remember downloading the game when it was still in 0.13.3 three years ago.... Then I bought the game during the 0.16 update(worst time to buy it, right? )... I can't believe how far the game has gone. So much nostalgia because of you, mainly because I have other strong memories about event occurring around the first time I played it. I still remember how I discovered KSP: it was in a french magazine that presented how to make it's own rocket, with KSP. As soon as I saw the page(yes, only one page), I knew I had to try it. And as soon as I downloaded KSP, I knew I won't stop playing it turn out I was right Also, I found it cool to watching a game being developed updates by updates, it's like beign part of the history(of the game, of course). Oh, and I still remember the launch tower. I used the mod that removed it not long before the update that removed it forever: one of my design to go to the mün(if I recall correctly) was just too big and it was clipping in it.
  21. Happy Halloween! Oh, and if the Kraken show up in front of your station, and say "trick or treat", give all single snack you can find: the "tricks" of the kraken are awful... I'm sure he's saying "trick or threat" instead of "trick or treat" this awful pun is brought to you by goldenpeach; goldenpeach: making bad pun since 1854!
