  1. Nathan IS correct the glow is triggered by the temperature gauges. If you keep the gauges suppressed with DMagic's Temperature Gauge Killer the glow won't appear. But as soon as you temporarily enable the temperature gauges ( F10 ) to do a quick check that fugly glow appears on overheated parts and stays there. Even after parts have cooled back down.
  2. Removal of that horrendous heat glow has been high on my wish list for quite some time. I really hope it gets dealt with in the next update.
  3. Update 2: He made it safely back to earth Great movie. This will be a classic.
  4. Update: Hope I won't give away too many spoilers. Stunning 3D landscapes. Great humour. And a solid story. This isn't science fiction. This is science future.
  5. At the cinema right now waiting for the movie to start. Will give an update during the intermission.
  6. True. This one of the few fora in the world where a remark like that will actually be taken serious.
  7. Oh my god! Did it really happen? Has an actual forum maintenance announcement really been made on the forum before twitter? No seriously, this is how it should be done. On the forum and well in advance. Thank you for the heads up.
  8. Would indeed be a lot more efficient to ferment it and distil it to pure ethanol. If you do that you'll end up with polluted ethanol/kerosene. Better indeed to stick to pure ethanol/kerosene.
  9. If you mean the icons, they ONLY appear with a capable pilot or probe core. Just keep in mind scientists and engineers are NOT pilots.
  10. A propeller that big and powerful would easily overpower the brakes. And besides that; pointing that propeller upwards would basically turn your airplane into a helicopter.
  11. You're absolutely correct. I've done things similar to this with average sized shuttles very often. But it can also be done with small or even insanely big.
  12. Kerbin-Side You probably can't find it on Curse as it is hosted on kerbalstuff.com. P.S. And finding it on the forum wasn't actually that hard. IF you know how to search.
  13. What you need is this thread Forum FAQ – Answers for New Users
  14. If it's nice and sunny after two days of clouds and rain ... it's probably Monday.
  15. You most certainly can. Press Alt + F9 and select 'persistent' That one is your autosave.
  16. KSP already does autosaves every few minutes. Too bad the older ones get overwritten each and every time. But the same thing happens with manual quicksaves.
  17. "Spectral evidence for hydrated salts in recurring slope lineae on Mars" Is that all? NASA must be really desperate to make such a hype over something we pretty much already knew.
  18. Substitute this for that, or that for this. Whatever. I did it from memory and English is not my first language. But it doesn't really matter. What does matter is you understood my point; they screwed up big time!
  19. That will be incredibly difficult. It would A LOT easier to get one on the ISS. We already know several people at JPL know and play KSP as well as several NASA astronauts. Get one of those astronauts on your side and he/she might take a Kerbal up there.
  20. Why? Because NASA, and the entire astronomical community, never came up with a better term than "perigee-syzygy of the Earth-Moon-Sun system" The term "supermoon" fits and is easy to remember. "Perigee-syzygy" only creates more questions than it answers.
  21. No seriously. I'm not impressed yet. At least not until they make a REAL discovery. Remember that arsenic bacteria a few years ago? It was announced as it was something special. A completely different branch on the tree of life. But all it turned out to be was an already well known bacteria that just happens to be able to substitute phosphorous for arsenic. So please NASA. Do yourself a favour and don't disgrace yourself yet again. Think before you act this time.
  22. Time to once again dust off the good old Already Suggested List. Question remains: Why has the Already Suggested List not been re-stickied yet?
  23. Wow. Old thread resurrected after over a year. The first station was launched regularly in several pieces and docked together. The second, 90 meter ring was build in orbit with IIRC Extraplanetary Launchpads.
  24. Another option to reduce 'flapping' wings is TweakScale. Simply by scaling the wing parts to 200% you'll reduce the parts needed to build the same surface by 75%. Less parts/joints means less wobble.
