  1. Just a general request to be able to get SAS to work better with rovers and such. (and motorcycles/unicycles)

    I 'd like to have the ability to get SAS split into its 3 axis, and have the ability to turn on and off axis via control groups and right click menus.

    Thanks.

  2. I give up. I just can't get this car around that track in anything like a decent time (read: under two minutes), and all attempts to do so result in rolling the car. It's gotten to the point where I'm not enjoying it anymore, so I'm afraid I won't be continuing with this.

    Can you post a picture of your car?

    Im pretty sure its going to be something that once you get it, you'll not be frustrated anymore.

  3. I hope that I am not late :)

    start at 3:00 and finish at 4:28

    lap time = 1:28

    Whoa, thats good :)

    I've made improvements to my car, but have not submitted an updated time, if I did, we'd be tied :)

    Cant wait to race against you in race #2 !

    That brings up another question, sorry Kyrian.

    Are we able to modify our cars between races?

  4. within reason, right? i mean, if im only penalized +1s for starting at a flying lap (starting my lap while doing 24m/s) ... then (sub?) 1:25's might be possible, taking into account the +1s penalty

    I think that if you jumpstart (eg: your velocity is anything other than 0.0m/s) your submission should be void. That way, we can avoid what I said ^ in that line.

    Thoughts?

  5. I submit for your consideration... The 4 Cubed Super Rocko Multi Talented Launch Land and Lunge Sub Orbital Testing Platform

    The engineers were rather pleased with the outcome, although in hindsight, firing it up would probably have cost less in repairs.

    For the next challenge, I would like to see a pretty picture, but not just any pretty picture.

    Your challenge is to use the smoke trails off rocket/jet engines to make a pretty geometric shape that is pleasing to the eye.

    (An example would be when you accidentally stage a few seconds too early, and your SRB's take off ahead of your craft and you change the angle of the camera an look up and they each tear off in multiple directions creating a beautiful short lived 6 curlycue flower... that eventually explodes. We've all had those moments, I want you to share yours)

    This is an overlay of a few shots, but you get the idea

  6. Hey Jean Deaux,

    I think (I could be completely incorrect in my assumption here, so please correct me The_Boss) what The_Boss was questioning was whether rockets were allowed in my challenge. I don't want to put words in your mouth, but your response appears to be thinking The_Boss was questioning the result of the challenge given by you for the stage for the Kresident.

    I took it as The_Boss asking if rockets would be allowed in my "Fling a kerbal from a trebuchet type contraption"

    I'm glad you appreciated my stage as it was your challenge... although in hindsight, I think my stage represents more a rockstar stage (although that's not a bad thing), and it took a bunch of time to get everyone seated as my game crashed on me 4 times during moving everyone into place.

    I'm only posting this as I don't want others to get confused but hey, I could be wrong.

    The_Boss, if you could; Was your question "Are rockets allowed?" questioning my stage for the Kresident or my challenge for the trebuchet?

    Thanks again to everyone participating in this thread, its been very fun, and I find myself checking back here specifically more often than I have in quite a while :)

    Peace everyone (Seriously, Jean Deaux, no disrespect intended)

  7. Welcome Mr.Kresident

    Your throne, sir.

    Next challenge: Fling a kerbal from a trebuchet type contraption :)

    Clarification: Anything goes, as long as it resembles the function a trebuchet type contraption. This thread moves quickly so I don't want to bog it down with any rules for this one.

  8. Ok, here's the full video of the Minmus Jump. (Ive added audio to it so its not boring being that its 4:23 long, take a listen/watch)

    Coles notes for the TL;DW crowd.

    Total distance traveled: 4.9km (I don't know the exact distance because KSP rounds up)

    Take off height: 1600m

    Landing height: 1700m <- I noted this so it doesn't have that "jumping down a cliff" rule applied)

    Craft built on Kerbin and flown to Minmus

    Enjoy, Thanks again Yakky :)

  9. Ok, re-read your post.

    Couple of questions.

    Lines of tech unlocked being the vertical lines i take it? (because there are lines attaching each tech to the next tier)

    Whats the "slider value"

    Is lower score better?

    Also, you'll need a leader board.
