We should fly up there and give them a paint job.
I do admit though that I think it'd be cool if flags in KSP faded over long periods. Gives you a reason to visit again. 9P
"Refresh Flag"

It affects when the Kerbals get scared/excited on the astronaut square things.

*sweats nervously*

Although the stock music gets a bit repetitive, I can't stand playing games with other music blaring over them. It ruins the immersion for me. You wouldn't do that to a movie, would you?
Movies are not games though, and I usually put on a playlist with a similar theme. Keeps the immersion. ^.^
-
See the PR worry is that a bunch of people who just got the game are having their saves wiped with barely any notice, so they will be confused and wonder if it's a regular thing.
-
Kind of funny to see this still be pervasive. You'd have thought schools would have done away with that and the whole "blood in your veins is blue" thing.
-
You can either hit end flight (Which will end your flight) or you can hit "Space Center" which won't end your flight, and then you can click on the tracking station.
-
There are no KSP multiplayer mods. Also, multiplayer doesn't appear to be possible in KSP.
I think OP means this.

Arrghh... Yes. I do this WAY too often. I either hit launch and the engines are burning like crazy and the clamps are holding the rocket down or the the other way around and the clamps let go and don't fire the engines. I usually laugh at that last one because usually you get lots of explosions and then when it all clears, there is the capsule sitting forlornly in the middle of the launch pad with the Kerbals looking gobsmacked and then going ...
"WHAT DA FUNK HAPPENED MISSION CONTROL?"
"Oops, sorry Kerbal 1, someone forgot to light the fuse"
Indeed, it is epic though when you still manage to get into an orbit in one(ish) piece.
You know you messed it up when you pointed the rocket in the incorrect direction.
-
Gandalf is actually an Easter Egg within the game.
He has issues with jet engines, and when you get high enough he repeatedly yells "You cannot pass!" at you until you both fall to your death.
-
You know you messed it up when you realize that you never put the engines and the launch clamps in the same stage.
-
It's usually just travel at terminal velocity.
-
I think I'd be interested in this as well.

Yeah I'll just wait another two years.
The vast majority of the content I am enjoying in this game is the work of unpaid volunteers. If it weren't for them I'd probably have forgotten about this game months ago, back when they were stringing along docking ports for two or three versions straight.
The last major thing we got from Squad was in 0.18. It included docking, maneuver nodes, and the fundamental framework for resourcing. Everything since then might as well have not even have been released for as little as it matters.
You have the right to not purchase anything that's pre-full release.
Were this a fully released game and the resources not yet added, then you'd have an argument.
At this moment though, the game is still in early development stages. When you purchase the game, you purchase it well aware of it being only in a developmental stage.

That's epic!
Also, a testament to how useful the SRB is.
-
Thanks to seat, these guys can be made. And they are fun.
They control pretty well, and they're simple to design.
I was surprised when I pulled up and my altitude actually rose.
Sadly... Lenke learned that he should really slow down before deploying chutes... and to deploy them higher than 600m up...
So show off some of your glider designs. ^.^

That's a good point actually, haven't thought of that.
Great with all the comments! Interesting to hear about how you all relate to this.
The current plan is to get a second license of the game so that I can play regularly while this project runs on a machine in the closet. I wouldn't indeed be able to stop playing for so long.
Then obviously I need to prove this so I don't end up being accused of cheating like that silent hunter guy. I wonder how much storage it would take to screenrecord a 1-year mission...
The only thing I see as a really critical threat is the fact that I want to do this with something which is far away, likely a jool moon, and it has to be one I haven't visited yet. Doing this project for old news would be no fun at all.
That would mean doing this elaborate mission without any training or simulation, knowing only in theory that fuel will be sufficient etc. Some serious calculations need to be nailed down and I would have to get a lot better at playing the game generally.
Livestream it for 1 year.

Me too. I desperately need a flag planting T-shirt, but they're only available in male styles. It's not like it's hard on cafepress to do women's styles.
SOME OF US ARE GIRLS! WE LIKE SPACE TOO! YOU HEAR?
Yeah, isn't it just choosing some options or somthing?
-
And it is.
A friend of mine always said "I want a girlfriend that likes video games so we can play together" and we were always "nah, that's never gonna happen". And guest what? It happened... and it wasn't pretty at all.
After some time he was like "why can't she play alone?!". There are things you don't like to do with your girlfriend, you know, having some "me" time. And if your "me" time is playing games, then you're screwed: you can't say "no, I don't want to play with you"!
FYI that's not all women who play games.
It's not impossible to find a girl who likes games but will also give you space.
Just say "I'd like to play some games by myself." And if she says "No, we have to play together" or "You don't love me?" or something like that, then she's just getting a bit clingy really. Explain to her how you feel about it and that you need some time alone.
I'm friends with a decent number of men and women who are like this (as in willing to give space; also, I've dated a few of the women).
-
I'd like some female fitted clothes personally.
I don't like t-shirts that don't really fit my body.

I can write one!
Major Jeb - Blasting Home - to the tune of
Standing there alone, the ship is waiting
All systems are go, are you sure?
Control is not convinced
But the new Mechjeb has the evidence
No need to abort
The countdown starts.
Watching in a trance
Jeb is so certain
Nothing left to chance, all is working
Ready to ignite, all anxious waiting
"Blast me to Eeloo", jokes Major Jeb
He'll soon be dead...
4, 3, 2, 1
Kerbin's floating, spinning flying
Jeb's igniting, SRB's blast home
Second stage is cut, he's now in orbit
SAS is up, attitude right
Starting to project, maneuver node up
What will it affect, when stages shed
Thinks Major Jeb
In the main control, there is a problem
Go to rockets full, not responding
No power is left, energy leaving
Where is that Kerbol, Jeb's anxious now...
There's no way out...
4, 3, 2, 1
Kerbin's floating, spinning flying
Jeb's igniting, SRB's blast home
Across the stratosphere
A final message, "Blow my stuff all up"
Then nothing more
Far beneath the ship, the world continues
They no longer care, it's not fair
He is all alone just there waiting
He's a drama queen, it'll turn back on
When morning comes
Kerbin's floating, spinning flying
Jeb's igniting, SRB's blast home
Kerbin's floating, spinning flying
Jeb's igniting, SRB's blast home
Kerbin's floating, spinning flying
Jeb's igniting, SRB's blast home
Home

Perhaps the Save the Kerbins campaign will be more successful.

One might argue that the lack of love interests puts Kerbals at a disadvantage.
Men and women build rockets on earth to impress their boyfriends and girlfriends back at home!
My great devotion to space travel is likely to find me either a boyfriend or girlfriend!
-
I wanna try to lift a launch clap now even though it might not work XD
I just tried, sadly they stay firmly put.
I think the Space Kraken converted my spacecraft:

Whatever it's doing it seems to be effective.
