SmarterThanMe

Updated the Expedition pack to include NotAgain's Space1 and Spacelab1 and blu3wolf's MOSA.

Yeah I figured. Heh. Was just saying that's why I did one with something missing.

Good question... You've probably given me enough. I'll get to it in a sec. But to answer the question for everyone else, tell me about the expdedition. Where is it? What is its purpose? What has it done? Is there anything interesting about the place that you think might help me out? A screenie would be awesome as well, but not really required.

OK... I was intrigued by the idea that you'd put up Spacelab... Without a lab. So I did two for you, one with something obviously missing. I'll have it in the Expeditions pack later tonight.

I know. I'm keen to make some changes to them actually. I've suggested it to split off my stuff, but I think we might have to wait for 1.1? Operations will be coming this week. There's not as much as for Science and Engineering. In other news (got all excited and then forgot to mention this), I've accounted for @Errol's feedback and moved around Lance Corporal and Corporal (thanks!). I've also got some feedback offline that ATM was mangling the patterned texture I had used for the background, so I've changed to a matte background. Should work better. I've also added Chief Master Sergeant (seriously, how many Sergeant ranks do you guys in the US have?), as this is apparently should be the apex of the Enlisted ranks. Per @blu3wolf's suggestion, I've moved everything to Kerbalstuff, and ticked the box to get everything up on CKAN (thanks!). Hopefully it'll work without me needing to muck around with it. Still keen to hear from people wanting their expeditions worked up. Still keen to hear any other feedback

Thanks. I completely forgot about CKAN. I'll get it up on KS in a sec, and then sort it out..

Thanks @Errol. I'll fix that tonight.

Added on to mine. I'm delving out a little from just ranks and am now doing ribbons for each of my expeditions.

I've updated with two new ribbon packs... As I said, I'm happy to discuss adding new expedition ribbons for other people based on your own games, so long as you're happy for it to be put into my pack. Get in touch if you want to discuss it out.

My ranks are done: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/129465-105-stms-final-frontier-ribbon-packs-ranks/ I'm starting at 8000 and working my way up.

UPDATE 6/4/21 Still seems good. I'm not sure, because @Nereid hasn't updated FF, but everything looks OK. Getting into the game it helps to give the Kerbals a little bit of character. Using Final Frontier and my ribbon pack gives you the opportunity to acknowledge the experience and expertise of your Kerbals, besides through their skills. These are all user-assigned. But I am keen to talk with anyone who might like to write a plugin to make promotions and assignment of roles easier. ALSO: Want a set of ribbons for your expeditions like the ones below? Ask, and I'll see what I can do. FAQ below. REQUIREMENTS Before we go any further, the Ribbon Packs below are designed to work with Final Frontier by Nereid. Final Frontier 0.9.1 or higher must be installed and working properly in order for this mod to work. Visit the Final Frontier Thread. INSTALLATION Download the packs that you want below and move the GameData file from the RAR to your KSP folder. Overwrite where it asks to do so.

Not that much of an inconvenience, but yeah, you're right. Maybe keep it in your back pocket for the 1.1 update. I'm pretty sure no one will mind savebreaking changes when probably savebreaking hosts are made to the whole game. Let me know.

Thinking about it... Do you want to spin off all the roleplay only ribbons? Or, at least the ones I've contributed? That way, you can save a bit of screen space (and so on) for the people who have no interest in them?

Yeah, I read the readme. I've also seen one other person (Aryam?) who had the same idea, so I'll make sure theirs and mine don't conflict. Mine will be ready tonight as soon as I can get 3yo and 1yo to bed.

Nereid: what is prestige for? I imagine it's for determining which ribbons get displayed "above the fold" while others get hidden if there's too many, and only displayed when the full set of ribbons for that Kerbal displays? So, is a higher or lower number going to be better? I've got a pack of rank "ribbons" ready to go, but I'd prefer for them to be displayed first...

LOL This!

How does one give rep points in the new forum system?

I think I got Deep Space once... Is it awarded after escape from Kerbol SOI?

Let me know what sort of ribbons you want done and I can at least get the graphics done?

[quote name='Nereid']? Anything broken?[/QUOTE] Not as far as I'm aware, but I haven't been able to play since... Gods I can't even remember when. Work has decided that killing me slowly over several years is just too subtle and has ramped it up a bit over the past few weeks. No, just happy that you're back, and that you found that stuff, and that I'll be able to play with it as soon as soon as I shake off the assassins.

[quote name='Nereid']Well... included in 0.8.9-1414[/QUOTE] :D which is too short.

Too many acronyms... What's TQ?

I don't use either mod, at the moment (I don't have the RAM budget, hurry up 1.1/Unity 5), but yeah.

Keepfit? Linkety link.

I'm a teacher, so I know NCLB (which is more or less the opposite of what it sounds), so I put two and two together. I've lost Kerbonauts before. Primarily on Ascent from/Descent to Kerbin. But, where I can do something to save someone, I do it. And damn the consequences. This has sometimes meant that Kerbonauts have had to camp out somewhere with limited supplies until I can get a rescue mission to them. There have been some comical times, like when I was still figuring out how to land on the Mun, and I wrecked the Lander. Then wrecked the Lander sent to rescue the crew of the first Lander. Got it on the third try, however.
