  1. I am looking forward to the space plane... The f-16 looks interesting, ill try it out later. Are these/gonna be compatible with FAR?
  2. I am getting a little confused... which version should i download for KSP 0.24? EDIT: I think the version 7-3 is ok? it seems to work just fine for me. Got a bit confused because the title says 0.23.5 and i remember seeing posts about an overhaul thats for 0.24 or something, tho i might have been mistaken. For now, ill just use this version.
  3. Does anybody have a backup? Any one who compiled the story? This bit i remember.... by eating too many potatoes to read the upside down text....
  4. Oh... ok... the major prob is that the rocket falls apart on the pad after time warp....
  5. Who is that brown Kerbal? A zombie?? Cool art work....
  6. Dropped the idea of manned flight to duna. will instead land a rover, and have already created a good model which can land on Kerbin.. Also, how to ensure an intercept without timing the burn for a direct intercept? I don't like to wait that long....
  7. I would like to see something like the Pluto system- a moon half the size of the parent planet. I woud also like to see some comets and a mysterious planet not in map view orbiting inside the orbit of Kerbin... I would also like to see ringed planets
  8. I guess with the half a tank of fuel left in the ascent stage, I can reach a safer orbit then...
  9. I too realised that. After 10 days in orbit, the apogee lowered by 5m. I again launched the mission, only to encounter the same crash... will jettison the launch stage before continuing... I also found Jeb still in orbit, and I guess bob will still be orbiting too...
  10. I flew the rock yesterday with the modifications you suggested. I had to change the booster symmetry to 8, and I changed the 400l tank to 1600l tank above the nuclear rocket, and added parachutes with decouplers. I managed to make it to a 70x70 km orbit, but I miscalculated the take off time and ended up waiting for 10 days in orbit(I used the maximum time warp possible) for proper alignment. I was using protractor addon to determine the burn location. Finally I started the burn using remaining fuel in the launch stage(I had half a tank left) and when the fuel ran out I was prepared to decouple and engage the interplanetary stage, but the game crashed and I ended up using task manager to kill the program. I guess it was because of the excessive use of time warp. Will try again today... Jeb was on board, so it must have been a big let down for him...
  11. I also head into a orbit around 70km. In a failed interplanetary mission in which I tried modifying this rocket, the lander appeared to have enough fuel to get back, but i could not intercept duna. I also intend to go down on parachutes(I guess that saves fuel and is easier). I had no idea that my lander has so much thrust. On my failed mission, I increased the symmetry and added a tank or two for the boosters, and one more tank for the nuclear rocket. Thanks for the advice, a ton. I will try the modifications tomorrow if I can, and will tell the result. I have another version of my moon rocket with 3 sunbeam lasers on the landing fuel tanks to clear up debris on the way. It adds a weight of 1.5 to my rocket. Is it worth is or shall i leave the lasers?
  12. My main goal is to reach duna. I have a good moon rocket(link in my signature). Could it make to duna and back with some modifications?
  13. Are there any tips and techniques for designing any rockets that are capable of interplanetary flight? The delivery to the target is possible for me, but the launcher seems to be a major problem... Would like tips for the delivery system as well...
  14. I tried the asymmetrical launch and i managed to make it to the mun without incident, but the mapping was a bit of a problem. I have no idea how to read the map. I think it may not be compatible with KSP 0.17
  15. Also, when i was testing the mod, the detector does not seem to be detecting and kethane. Is the mod compatible with KSP 0.17?
  16. I am trying to build a rocket that can fly on missions, and when needed, land and refuel with kethane and continue on it mission, with an ability to convert the kethane to fuel.
  17. I would like to use kethane addon by MMI, but i have no idea on the most efficient placing on a space ship, since it is hard to make it symmetrical, and would surely unbalance my rocket. Any tip on the placing and efficient use?
  18. Some things i would like to see in future updates are: 1. Docking 2. Better simulated reentry 3. Asteroid belt 4. Random system failures(like Apollo 13) 5. Electrical systems 6. Better modeled cockpits 7. Consumables 8. Career Mode 9. Achievements 10. Rival Space centers 11. Mun base, Minmus base 12. Ability to change launch locations These are all i have in mind right now. I would like to see at least some of the above be present in the future updates.
  19. I started construction on an interplanetary space ship, but any design I created was too big, and would tumble out of control. Can I get some help on designing an interplanetary ship from launcher to lander with examples? And also some help on rendezvous of the planets would be much appreciated.
