These are wise words. Unfortunately, wisdom comes with the years, so for the younger ones it always has to be bigger, better, stronger, faster. Than you get older, you get a life, a job, depressed, a spouse, kids and before you know it, your gaming time is reduced from 24/7 to 0.24/7, and you don't even miss it a bit. And if you find your own wisdom, you'll find real happiness. And until than: You can't always get what you want.

Yay! I didn't win! Just as I expected (no I'm not autistic, only very much so). Too bad for the winners though, now they have to ask the spouse where they can hang the poster, and need to socialize with other virtual rocket enthusiasts with enough spare time to play a quite addictive and time consuming game in order to find a friend to give the game to. Poor fellas. So good luck to the winners.

When I enter such a competition, I know I never win. Never won anything ever with contests like these or anything other contest with more than 10 participants. So I always get what I expect, and I like that. No stress from thinking "Would I win this time?". I already won. I had a blast discovering how spiral arms in galaxies remain stable and about that something something resonance something density in saturns rings (well, at least it looked impressive) while googling the answers. Took me six hours to fill in the form.

Yay! Succes! This just might save you a lot of frustration, bottles of booze and a broken keyboard. And even the problem was solved as well! I'm happy I was able to help a bit, it was my pleasure.

Unrhetorical answer;): Hmmm... Steam... That's unfortunate. Uhm... Go to the game directory, copy the entire folder, paste it somewhere else should do it, and launch by doubleclicking ksp.exe, that should do the trick. But does the problem still occur when using only vanilla parts? When something stinky hits the fan, and the cause is unknown, reduce the problem to the core, so we can fix it. Something you should take a look at is to make sure that parts aren't clipping into each other. Even if it isn't visible, the (invisible) collision boxes might overlap, causing annoying problems like decouplers not detaching correctly, or parts exploding randomly. So when you attach parts keep clearance from other parts, and pay extra attention when attachment nodes are close to each other, like with decouplers, beams, panels, radial elements, etc. The first thing I would look at in your case, would be a decoupler clipping into the engines. Let us know when you've found something. I look forward to hearing how it went.

Okay, I might have helped by recreating the circumstances and using the craft file, but I rather play KSP than wasting a few hours installing mods, so many that things are doomed to fail. So spare me the trouble and go figure it out yourself. Sure you don't want to break your save file, so try this until the problem doesn't occur anymore: - reduce your rocket by making your part count as low as possible, with as little number of mods necessary. Does the problem still occur? - install a second ksp (for testing purposes) in a different directory. Drop your craft file there. Install necessary mods for the craft file. Does the problem still occur? - reduce your rocket to a completely vanilla state, and uninstall all mods. If the problem still occurs, than we can surely help you with your craft file. So I guess we'll see you back in a few hours?

Same thing here. I wanted to use the launcher to change settings, because settings in the main menu won't load. Argh! Now I have to edit the settings text file grumble grumble grumble...

That part "DevideByZero: 54" reminds me of ye good ol' SimCity, when you shift+click on a statue "number of pigeons pooped upon: 1054". So it made me kinda lol.

It just might be. It's the best guess I've heared. How many funds will it cost to rebuild it? Mortimer won't be happy about that, I say.

Awesome idea! Devs! Hey devs! Take a look at this fella's idea!

Oh man you've made my day. You're so going to end up in my sig.

I laugh at that forum Kraken! I've seen it's kind before. It was a gruesome battle, we were a match for each other. Then he pulled me offline for some time, I can't even remember how long... My finger got really tired spamming F5 that long... But I survived. It came back online, and so it became an event no one will ever forget. I've got the scars to prove it: a hiatus in my forum posts. So come on with that Kraken! I eat Krakens for breakfast! Or just release 0.24 already, before I lose more of my mind.

I agree. I laughed. But I have to work in an hour, so sorry for not laughing out loud, but it was funny.

We will obey. Jeb wants a snack. We will obey. Jeb wants a snack. We will obey. Jeb wants a snack. Push the red button. We want to obey.

Hey, didn't see this thread before. Magnificent! Looks like ksp has a new B9! Nice work. Too bad it all looks a bit too real, like the anvil pack, but more realistic. I rather like the stock look. So please forgive my bad taste. Stubbles, just an idea. With talents like yours, wouldn't it be more satisfying to create something innovating? Something that get people from A to B on the surface, but without chutes, skycranes or airbags. Base building is fun too. And everyone likes large IVA's with lots of blinking lights and a big red button for Jeb. I'm quite curious what some one with your skills would come up with.

I did science on mun. It said basalt.

It this was 0.23, my first reaction would be: "Hey, they've put back the old launch tower!".

Every time I click next page, two new pages are added! Argh! The madness!

Of course! Always believe people when they are not referring to actual sources! I heared the bug was that bad, we would be lucky to have the game in 14 hours, but I think it might take even longer! Haven't you seen the errors on the main web page?

All that time waiting... Only to discover that as usual the update breaks the most essential mods. After screaming "Nooooooooooh!" for half an hour there is the waiting for a few weeks for the mod devs to update their mods. But the tension before the release is always fun to remember.

There already is a game launcher, since 0.22. Check your game folder (".../ksp_win/" when using windows), there you will find several folders, ksp.exe and launcher.exe. Open "launcher.exe", et voilà, enjoy that pretty launcher.

I wish I could be of some assistance... Would it help if I would say: "Ooooooh... That looks nice......."

Thank you sirkut. Well, I guess that was the end of the old Bobcat parts. Sigh.

Agree. Perhaps he would like to release it as "do whatever you want with it, as long as it says "Bobcat" and as long as it's yellow and white". I've got no noteworthy modelling skills, but I would love to take the effort to learn it all from a to z, if that would revive all the rovers to their former glory and beyond. Not that I have little time atm, but even if it's an hour or two everyday, every little helps. So Bobcat, could it be possible to release all material you have (or wish to share) of the rovers free to tinker with to the community, to complete the good work you began? And perhaps other abandoned projects, like that plane you showed us quite a while back in that youtube video?
