    Good call. I'll change my possible translation accordingly: "Bill! You must listen! Don't have much time!" "Holy SAS! Jeb? "No, Bill! It's me: Artie! I came to warn you!" Jeb! You're alive! How is this possible?! "They're coming! You need to prepare!" EDIT: I'm not convinced it's Artie. The font is wrong

    ...and it's not long enough for "Jebediah". Also, the voice is wrong (black speech bubble)

    It seems that most of the time, "::" is a replacement for a single letter. That being the case, I offer the following attempt to decrypt what "Jeb" said: Bill! You must listen! Don't have much time! No, Bill! It's me: Jebediah! I came to warn you! They're coming! You need to prepare! Oh and can it really be Jebediah? He's not grinning

    It could be a projection of future Jeb. Like those strange visits in the begining of Plan Kappa.

    You're right, exactly one month ago. Good call, @smjjames

    The way Gene talks in the last panel makes me think he has been reading Kenlie's comics

    @DualDesertEagle Which version of KSP are you running? I see you have the old wheels and I notice your plane isn't jumping up and down with joy. Are you on 1.0.5?
  8. Deddly
    It's ok. All those early alpha releases are freeware.

    Now that I finally have my new computer, I can have another serious go at this. I reasoned that I should take one step at a time, so I enabled infinite electricity to see if it's even possible to get off the ground without worrying about the extra weight and drag of power production. Here's my result so far: As you can see, I just about managed to get off the ground after gaining speed down the slope near the sea shore. Unfortunately I wasn't able to maintain altitude, but I remain hopeful that "moar wing" should help. I think if we can get takeoff speed down to 15 m/s, this might actually work.

    I have to wonder what the effect of Kenlie's chess playing will have on poor ǝıןuǝʞ and the other Kerbulans. They'll surely misinterpret what he is doing as making devious plans to outwit them and capture them. This looks like it'll get even more fun as things unfold.

    Hmm, in hibernation most of the way, though.

    I just want to chime in and say that I love the age rating on the Checks game.

    Sounds like an entertaining mini-game

    @JoeNapalm We already achieved takeoff at much lower speeds than that in the ion plane resesrch challenge. Still not been able to take off using only ions though, but we're working on it

    Another interesting detail that is revealed from these pages is that Kenlie doesn't only see things from s,ǝıluǝʞ POV. I think many of us knew that already, but it's nice to have it stated clearly.

    Or, since everything is backwards over there: "That which kills you makes you weaker."

    Hi @dutchy45. Sorry to hear about your first welcome to the forum. Glad it got sorted though.

    Extra points for "murdery" and "another alternate reality". Absolutely fantastic! I also liked the overlay of Kenlie Kerbulan saying exactly the same thing as Kenlie Kerman. Nice touch.

    That's the way, @Kuzzter. Write me a story <BzzzZZZZT!>
  20. Deddly
    I personally rather enjoy the fact that the story takes a little time to unfold. It almost gives me a sense of experiencing the story in real time. From designing and building a carrier, to testing it and fuelling it, to getting the crew and support craft in place, and just a little drama on the long journey to the outer solar system - it's been quite a ride, and we've been travelling along with them out there.

    @Archgeek So does it actually help to have the engines inside the structural fuselage? Sorry I didn't quite get whether it's worth it or not from your post. As for wings, remember that those little fins you're using can be placed on to each other as well.
  22. Deddly
    Yup! Paused for 2 weeks for vacation.

    A: Put very simply, Delta-v is a measurement of how much you can do with the fuel you have. It depends on how heavy your craft is, how much fuel you have and how efficient your engines are.

    As Kurt J Mac is so fond of saying, "It's not so much about the destination as about the journey there." And, @The_Rocketeer, even if you didn't get to orbit, yours were the coolest-looking crafts. That counts for something in my book even if it doesn't show up on the scoreboard.

    @REAPER7, that is really great work! Did you manage to sustain level flight with the drone, and if so, what was your maximum altitude? Looks like you lost a lot of altitude after separating, but maybe that was to build up speed? I'm impressed at how high you managed to get the "helicopter"
