What was the last thing you did in .19?
GreatBeast666 replied to Kerbal01's topic in KSP1 Discussion
I tried ... and repeatedly failed... to get 300T of spare fuel up. -
I just made my first (successful) duna landing a minute ago!

How would I use lights effectively?
GreatBeast666 replied to Telyon's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
don't get too overzealous with them, especially the spotlight ones... too many illuminating the same area can basically obscure details in a white-out, and give some glitchy graphic rendering (areas flip-flopping). I like to use the square ones (softer light, more diffused) to illuminate the craft, and spotlights (tighter, brighter beam) to illuminate outwards -
The issue #1, with a single item 'jumping out of it's grouping' seems to be related to picking an item back up and placing it down again. Ex, if you place an SRB in quarter symmetry, you'll see the icon with #4. If you then grab one of the items to move it around, then place it again, that one item's icon will now seem to be out of the group on it's own. Makes it a slight p.i.t.a for stage arrangements. But often if you leave the VAB or otherwise get the ship out of memory and reload it, all isolated items will be listed as grouped again.

nice, i'll have to try that. When you put multiple copied of the same ship up, do you need to save each one as a separate craft? (like I said, somewhat new to KSP)

tried KSP a while ago. got HOOKED. Needless to say, I find my space program expanding rapidly. Missions requirements becoming ever more complex, I've come to notice the need for a fuel-station in space. And the problems with getting it there. Fully loaded, she's a bit heavy. And there was a tendency for the symmetric fuel pods to break off during liftoff. But after several failed attempts to get into orbit, I finally just glued on enough SRB's (and 6 Matriarch's doesn't hurt) to get her up. So, flying gas pumps. I'd love to see how others have solved the problem. How much can you get up?
