  1. Squad changing there mind isn't all that unlikely. For example, I remember that up until a certain point, squad clearly stated that docking would never be added. Then, they figured how to make it work and promptly added it.
  2. Based on the calculated kethane capacity, this ship is capable of completely emptying any kethane reserve in a single run.
  3. Ooh! Maybe with this new rapier engine, I will actually be able to build a functioning SSTO. I absolutely suck at designing those.
  4. Well, you are at risk of having the wrong body part operated on. Yep that actually happens.
  5. Oddly enough, I noticed that earlier today, the OP had a total of one post. Now he has 0. How??? Even more proof that we found a wormhole!
  6. I started playing KSP around .17 and i totally agree.
  7. Here are a couple cheesy ones: What you do when you are a cloud- Uranium What you do in a play- Actinium A funny inmate- Silicon What the doctor tells you to stick out- Tungsten I apologize to mankind
  8. On the other hand, there are dreams where you get REALLY disappointed that you had to wake up.
  9. Year 361 gunpowder is discovered to have the ability launch itself into the air when pointed down a tube. The first fireworks are created.
  10. Here's the equation you are undoubtedly looking for.
  11. Granted but then it evolves into a Swampert and beats you to a pulp. I wish for three more wishes EDIT: My wish has been granted!

  12. Thanks! I have decided to get the Anker high precision laser gaming mouse. It looks like it will suit my grip and needs. It has good reviews. Also, it's currently $20 off on Amazon! Thank you to everyone who helped me out.
  13. Some games I play include League of Legends, Team fortress 2, Minecraft, and KSP (of course!) Interestingly, I uncovered this article that claims that DPI doesn't matter as much as mouse makers claim it does. From the article: "Ninety percent of expert gamers will be using a DPI between 800 and 1600" Do you agree with what the article claims? I typically use a the palm grip.
  14. So I'm just wondering: What is the marginal benefit of getting an $80 mouse versus a $40 mouse? Is the difference that big?
  15. I have decided that I would like to get myself a gaming mouse for Christmas. Thing is, I have no idea which ones are good. What gaming mouse would you recommend me to get? I am aiming for the right mix between quality and price. Thanks!
  16. Mods that add a ton of parts are really cool but they can clutter up the VAB parts tab (I'm looking at you B9 Aerospace). As a result, I occasionally have to spend an annoying amount of time paging through the structural parts tab to reach the stock parts . The solution I propose is to organize parts into subfolders within the parts sections that are determined based on mods installed. That way, people would only have to look for the part in a specific subfolder; this is more manageable than a collective tab. The subfolders would be inactive while no mods are installed. For example: (First thing you would see when you look in the structural tab) Structural: >Stock (contains all stock parts) >B9 Aerospace >KW Rocketry Let me know what you think. I apologize if my explanation is too vague for you to understand what I am talking about.
  17. Beautiful plane. Nice IVA. Squad really needs to fix the IVA's for two of the three spaceplane cockpits.
  18. I agree that TAC makes everything more interesting. However, I don't use the original 3 often. Anyways, they all died in an "accident" while testing experimental aircraft. (The space program totally didn't cover up any incidents)
  19. You are nothing more than an electrician. I can read peoples' minds
  20. I sent two rescue missions to rescue Kirk Kerman. Because of TAC life support, I had to make the rescue fast or let him die.
  21. Story time! (Too bad spoilers are no longer used. Sorry!) As background information, I have TAC life support installed so Kerbals need resources and electricity to survive. Remote tech also plays a part in this. The mission I had planned involved placing two small communication satellites in munar orbit with a manned ship to conduct science also (similar to what Scott Manley did). The first part of the mission went by nominally. The problem occurred when I realized I placed a decoupler backwards so it was stuck on the engine. This prevented the engine from generating any propulsion to conduct the munar capture burn. I was basically stranded. The good news was that I was not on an escape trajectory out of kerbin. The apogee of my new orbit was around the altitude of the mun while the perigee was near geosynchronous orbit altitude. The bad news was that I didn't pack enough snacks to keep the kerbal alive for long. I had just over 12 hours of life support remaining. I would reach the perigee in 12 hours. If I conducted a rescue mission, it would be close. (due to the nature of the orbit, it would have been basically impossible to get back just by pushing on the pod from EVA) So I quickly put together a rescue mission. I would only have one shot at doing this correctly. Because the remote tech communications network was not yet fully established, I needed the rescue ship to be manned. I had not unlocked much in the way of command pods so I just stacked two command pods on top of each other and had one piloted. I launched the rescue mission into low kerbin orbit and waited for an intercept. I got a decent intercept and completed the burn. Unfortunately, I was running low on fuel. As I got closer to the target, I was closing in at 700 m/s. After I burned all of my fuel, velocities were still about 400m/s apart. Instinctively, the brave kerbonaut of the doomed ship went on EVA to try and match velocities. At this point, he had minutes of life support left that he took with him on EVA. I was in no position to be patient. I watched the distance from target increasing. Eventually, the relative velocities started slowing down until they started getting closer. I made it to the rescue vessel with minutes to spare and about 20% pack fuel remaining. This leaves one problem: The rescue vessel is out of fuel. I included RCS on the ship but being the idiot I am, I forgot to include thrusters. Luckily, I packed enough life support to keep the two kerbals alive for 5 days. Plenty of time to plan another rescue mission. There is not much to say about the secondary rescue mission. It wasn't hard. I included more than enough fuel. It successfully rescued the rescued and the rescuer. Why did I go to such great lengths to save a single kerbal? First of all, it's fun. Second, the name of the kerbal in trouble was Kirk Kerman. How could I just let him die? [/story]
  22. Ok but this belongs in the forum games section conveniently located inside the space lounge.
