  1. The Intrepid looks really epic! It looks ready to chase a Corellian consular ship at that 4th page panel!
  2. Hey, everybody! I managed to do the course correction on all the Jool fleet ships, and already set half the Duna fleet, which was waiting in LKO, on its way to the red planet. I'm not sure if I'll manage to post a new chapter during the weekend, but it's getting closer, so stay tuned!
  3. Sorry about that, folks! RL is keeping me really busy, and I still have a lot of stuff to do in-game before next chapter (such as doing course corrections fhr the entire Jool fleet). Please be patient. I might be able to post a chapter sometime next weekend.
  4. Just tried this, and for some reason, it worked! And that's why I need glasses - I totally missed the "download ZIP" button. Thanks for the support!
  5. Yes, that's what I did originally, and I still don't see a sign of the mod in the game...
  6. I'm using Mechjeb, USI Life Support, Kerbal Alarm Clock and Kerbal Construction Time (and ModuleManager). And I'm not sure if I installed correctly, since the files weren't bundled in a .zip or .rar folder. I just downloaded everything from the GitHub link (except for the contents of the "source" folder) and placed all of it in my GameData folder.
  7. Really like the idea of this mod, but I can't get it to work in my game. Does the icon only show up when I complete the tech tree?
  8. I've been trying out the Kerbal Planetary Base Systems mod, and it has really cool modules. They're intended for bases, but could be easily used on the [Redacted]. They have beautiful IVAs, which feel like truly habitable spaces, unlike the stock hitchhiker.
  9. Loved the second chapter, especially the use of the vessel viewer to show the designs. However, I found the two designs a bit too similar, which is understandable at this point, with so few tech nodes unlocked. How do you plan to give the competing "programs" their own visual identities? Will you define certain parts as "exclusive" to Jeb or Valentina? I think it would be really nice to see them pursuing alternate design strategies: for instance, while one would do the classic CSM+LM combo for a munar landing, the other would try a direct approach, with an Advanced Gemini-like approach; or while one would build a space station using a shuttle, the other would go for a sort of Apollo Applications program. What do you think?
  10. Very nice first chapter! Great quality layout! The switched gender dynamics is interesting, but it's also kind of a can of worms. We tend to hear these days a lot of absurd arguments about "reverse racism", "reverse sexism" and even "heterophobia" as excuses to disregard and disauthorize the struggle of minorities against oppression, so it's a theme that can very easily go the wrong way. I hope you put as much thought in it as you did to the graphic design, which is superb!
  11. Ok, it makes sense. I just assumed water and oxygen was automatically recycled on all crewed modules and supplies meant food, since the supplies storages have that "Nutritious Organic Meal Substitute" labels. Edit: another question, though... Is that consumption per day based on an Earth day or a 6h kerbal day?
  12. Wait, isn't that like more than five times what an average person eats per day?
  13. My specialty! Last time I tested a SSTO, though, it went so fast it burned up in the atmosphere. That was a first.
  14. Thanks, and hope you stick around! If you do try to make your own KSP comic, drop us a link!
  15. Oh, boy... I'm really curious to see what that "ultimate" ship will look like! Can that contract even be fulfilled in one lifetime?
  16. Oh, I've managed to build a few SSTOs that look good and flew really well, except they never reached orbit ...
  17. Mk3 planes and SSTOs are really harder to design than smaller ones, aren't they? I still haven't managed to make one that doesn't look very ugly... I'm counting on mechjeb to survive without the tracking station... Sure, but what would they gain from the VAB destruction? They could delay the reconstruction of the gravioli machine, but no one but Jeb would have the guts for something so drastic, and by now surely Johnsen has increased security...
  18. Unfortunately that particular ship was designed to be a Laythe SSTO, not a Kerbin SSTO. I haven't actually tried to reach LKO with it, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't have enough delta-v, although a more skilled pilot than me might get it pretty close to orbit. But when I tested it on Laythe (using hyperedit), however, I found it really hard to land in one piece, since it doesn't have enough lift to land softly and at a slow speed.
  19. The chapter makes more sense now that I added the missing page, with Gene's reasons and everything. I'm going to go hit my head on the wall now.
  20. Crap, I just noticed there's a page missing! Frappin' Imgur seems to have skipped one. I'll edit the post! Edit: fixed the post, now it has all the pages! Please read again, it actually makes sense now.
  21. Well, Chapter 34 is here, and makes the point moot, I'm afraid. Brace yourselves!
  22. Probably, but who would have the money to buy a majority in one of them? Don't forget that the KSC funds are now also controlled by the cabal...
