yea i do PM me an email address and i will send you a zip file of it

It was August 2011 when I first discovered kerbal space program. I was browsing an indie forum and happened upon a post describing a rocket building simulation game that I could play for free. I quickly googled KSP and my first hit was "Kentucky State police" realising that probably wasnt what i wanted i typed in the full name found what i wanted and downloaded the game which was less then 300mb at the time. The game seemed interesting there were few parts and even fewer instructions. That is the world of 0.7the Features were limited. There was no moon nor other planets. The sun was only a point of light that no matter how fast or long you travelled would never ever come any closer. Time warp? Forget it. Moving parts? Forget it. Lights, runways, wheels, Iva, Eva? Forget all of them. There was no maps no orbital information other then vertical speed and horizontal speed. The atmosphere was as thick as soup and you couldn't find out if you were orbiting until you waited the 20 so minutes it took to complete a full low orbit rotation? And if you only managed half an orbit your 3 kerbals were doomed for if they touched the dark side of the non revolving kerbin they would surely spontaneously combust What parts did we have? That's easy. A cockpit, winglets, standard fuel part,a few structural parts,the sas, a single kind of engine, radial a decoupler, a horizontal decoupler and of course the infamous solid rocket booster The competition back in the day was just to reach space. I spent hours designing and creating ships after ship with the standard modules available.we had to be carefull tho.. With the lack of struts any launch could be deadly........ Ships suffered from jelly fish wobbles where the different parts would sway and wobble as they had been unrestrained. It was an interesting time and the game has come a long way since then. I have a screen shot somewhere of one of my largest ships which used something like 60 SRB's for its first stage

Far out. your making want to open the old EV nova and play it again. Good work i'm defs gonna give this bad boy a shot

GAME OVER!

isnt that a surface to surface rocket?

edit: ninja\'d

After testing Mothership two Pod system has been proved and launch is about to commence. (also as a sub note the Ship is being renamed to Mothership Comsat) Photo\'s of launch will be posted below First photo During ascent- Ascent engines still attached beginning gravity turn Throwing away ascent engines as to avoid clutter

Hey guys. So i have started a new project of mine and that is the establishment of a moon base. The first Part of the journey is to find a Place suitable for landing So what i have created with the Aid of the Com sat mod/Carts/Bigtrack/eagle 1999/ and mechjeb is a mother ship which drops baby Ships. ( which are controllable by the player) Mother ship 1 has been scrapped due to Engine Malfunctions, Mother ship 2 will commence shortly Engines of landers are back online. Descent is underway Massive flaw in both MS 1 & 2 landers has been found. MS 3 is under constuction here is documentation of mothership 1 During accent Ready to drop search pods The Issue is that The Smaller Craft engines are not firing. which means that i need to place a decoupler on them so that the engines are activated when i activate the stage I will include more shots as i get nearer to Dropping the smaller craft

im wondering if i could be added to the list please

*cough* *cough*

Very Nice man I love it when i see another stock enthusiast The largest i ever made was this bad boy http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/index.php?topic=78.msg17019#msg17019 Sadly it was only ever launched once (every other time crashed the computer) if you try and download the craft file you will be sad to know that its an old .craft file 0.9 i think (wayyy before fuel lines, Vectured Thrust, ASAS and RCS)

mmm i think they should make a separate section for Plugins. The Project release forum is already Cluttered as it is

Firstly Are you downloading The MAC or the Windows Version? Secondly are you sure it completed its download?

what is the size of the file after it was downloaded?

Is it Just me or does it seem that the whole Forum is Slow ( by that i mean the time taking to load pages) i cant imagine how the server is feeling

Hitting Space when i still have boost left in the booster -BOOM-

they are going to Hit 10,000 easy. But i was already under the impression that they were already planning to make the game

Depends on the design your going for 1st way Place a Decoupler above your Pod Place lander legs on the side of the Decoupler (tri-sym) the lander legs should be sticking out in front. That is your closed. pressing G will take you to your opened 2nd way Build some wierd Ship with either a Quad Or Tri Sym have Fuel Tanks lead down and place Lander legs on the Inside of Each fuel tank. Lander legs will start off on open Pressing G will bring you to closed. Another way Screen Shot and Design from The_Duck

I have not tried using the RCS. I will check it out later originally i thought the spinning was a design feature with the rocket

How is your computer not going at a complete Crawl? Also you should try cleaning that up

Is it just me or does this rocket start spinning uncontrollably while under thrust in altitudes above 70,000. But well done man I am quite impressed

I would like to Follow up on what Togfox has said. Thank you for all the time and effort that you have put into this game to turn something pretty basic into one of the most played games i have ever played Personally I think you have set a really high standard for this game and I can trust that you can follow through with that standard. And finally I think Togfox\'s Last point is one of the best things about this game. being a Member since August i think that the Dev Involvement with the Community has been one of the Greatest Features that i have seen and I thank you for your patience and Tolerance to some of the forum members. Keep it up
