Random Screenshot Dump! Career Mode: Yes, I successfully engineered a plane using only winglets, SRBs, and radial decouplers for skids. It's a pretty good glider... But landing it is a pain. So I designed an ejection system to land when I'm done gliding... But the engine/wing section wasn't done when I was. It kept gliding for a minute and 39 seconds. Sandbox Mode! My newest and greatest plane, the Tilty McTilt! This is post-touchdown mode to keep it from taking off again. Did I mention that it has a hinge? This enables it to have a positive AoA for short takeoffs and a negative AoA for short(er) landings. It also looks really cool. Mod for the hinges is Infernal Robotics.

He might not be on a Windows machine and has parental restrictions, and some people don't like software that they don't know about; .zip is a significantly more universal file compression format anyway. Nothke, you pack the .rar files and I'll repack them as .zip and send them to you so you can post them in the thread.

6.39 Tons to LEO! We're making progress! There's still some fuel in the jettisoned stage in the background, and the probe's tanks are completely full.

Last post on the previous page. Link Edit: nevermind, ninja'ed

I use Linux for KSP and what games I do have, but I also have KSP on OS X for testing parts I make. Linux/Hackintosh combo, baby!

It looks like you're on the list for Phase C once this project gets to this point. Here's the spreadsheet Nothke (?) put together: (Har har har I'm hilarious not really kbye)

So I got the rescale installed along with FAR and Modular Fuels. Absolutely loving it!

Wha-wha-whaaaa? I must know where this mod is, I would love to try it! Edit: Never mind, found it! Linky!

I like this idea, maybe kinda like this? Also: Happy birthday Full size (It's stupidly big)

REAL PHYSICS

It's actually pretty stable that way, I just have issues landing with low vertical speed so that I don't hit them.

Really need to work on not losing the engines when landing... For that matter, I need to work on landing.

There's certainly people who don't use part mods for career mode, I happen to be one of them. Squad also has experimentals to make sure stuff works and is fairly well-balanced. That being said, the Tech Tree is working great! No complaints here.

Wow, that's a big image... Seriously though, the faint lens flare on the water tower is creepy... Couldn't we at least have a spotlight mesh up there?

*0.22 They might not be good for much science at the moment, but they can still be used to stage other missions. It's all up to you.

Totally Useless Crafts! I'll develop these during my career mode livestreams and then post the results here. The Porcupine Temporary Image! Using only the first level winglets and trusses for skids (no wheels yo), it tries to fly but fails. Utterly. There is no way in the world this could fly. At least it has an abort sequence... "Lift is for amateurs." Download (Dropbox) Yes, I will use Comic Sans MS for EVERY title. It is the only font that can correctly display the useless hilarity of these crafts.

Streaming some 0.22 Career mode now. Let me know in chat if you want music and I can turn on Nightbot's autoDJ or my own tunes.

First failed mission in 0.22... Total, utter loss... I figured it would be cool to have Jeb go on EVA while coming through the atmosphere, you know, for SCIENCE! It wasn't. And then I was timewarping to get the pod down faster so I could get the science back at least, but warped through the chute deployment and it broke. At least I transmitted the goo data I collected.

Jeb, I know you're happy to come home after doing science... but do you REALLY have to flip the command pod upside down?

They said it couldn't be done... But MC-OSWALD managed to circularize its orbit under its own power! Nice side shot Launch stage 2 coming down after boosting MC-OSWALD to a 70km Apoapsis Inline view. Hello ground!

RANDOM PICTURE DUMP! Shermin Kerman performing an EVA while prepping for rendezvous with KBS5. The Fairing'ed Heavy looks good in black. KBS5 Now has enough Fairing'ed Heavies to evacuate all six of the crew. Now we just need more space for them to live. Tried to get the Aeris 4A to KBS5 as well. Ran out of fuel while killing relative velocity and ended up reentering. Not sure why I took this one... Oh yeah! Because Minmus in the back left! My Mun base after getting the payload from the previous picture. It's still only Nelbert and Hanbal without any real living space, but at least we have power during nighttime and way more fuel than we need!

There should be a field in the config file called "steeringModeType". Change that from "AutomaticSteer" to "TankSteer" (without quotes) and you should be good to go.

I'll try this out tomorrow. See you people there (hopefully!).

Eventually, but Resources are such a large, gamechanging feature that the devs are implementing some "smaller" things, like science, first.
