Is this the new challenge thread for the KSP1 Oneoscar?

Have you heard of the boy who cried wolf? Please do not ping the CM’s for pointless questions they technically don’t know the answers too, but can’t ask their bosses either cause they’ll get fired for asking such a question.

Well, I think it’s called launch failure by @linuxgurugamer And the station parts are Stock alike station expansion? Been a while since I looked at their names.

I’d guess most likely the planet, but an older generation star might have a mix of oxygen and hydrogen in it, and if they hook up, vapor! I’m not sure about higher states of matter for water though, I’d assume if it’s over 100c it’ll be vapor for a very long time? Would the bonds hold up at these temps?

Just a fellow community member and long time player, just wanting to help the community be the best it can be.

Getting a successful abort is a really cool feeling. That’s what I love about the launch failure mod I use, it’s only active in atmosphere and after a pad launch I think, so once I reach space there won’t be random failures. Here’s my greatest successful failure to date, although it wasn’t an LES, and not even planned as an option, just some good remote piloting to save the station for recovery: On the pad: Uh Oh! Lost a booster! It fell off! Remaining SRB boosters jettisoned, dumped most of the fuel, booster core chutes deployed (using a booster recovery mod too, hence why they have chutes, although those might also be from the space tug which also had chutes), and stable orientation: Gentle retro burn for a soft splash down; And sploosh! I was able to recover the main booster core and the very expensive core piece of the station I was building. Sorry for the dark pics, I wasn’t really planning on doing a photo shoot at the time. But apparently I had time to hide the ui for each shot.

We get quizzed weekly on it. Contemplating sitting for the bar exam just from what I’ve learned there. The electric shocks @Ghostii_Spaceapplies for wrong answers makes you a good study. Milgram not withstanding, it’s an excellent study technique.

Technically, survivability was not part of the question.

This thread has been split off from this thread, as it does not pertain to dragons. Yes, copy pasting text from other sources creates obnoxious formatting at time. That is why the posters should hit “remove formatting” after pasting into the editor. It helps make the forums easier to read across all platforms.

A number of off topic posts for this thread have been moved to their own thread, found here:

Any attempts to mess with the forum usually ends up with the user being perma-banned. If you want to be creative and mess with a forum, go to Invisions forum and break theirs, they’ll be able to fix it much faster than we can, and you won’t ruin the fun for everybody else here. So Please stop.

Linky?

Oh looks like an old thread got some good fresh replies! Ever since I started playing with a part failure mod, it’s almost required for me. But I also like building larger launch vehicles, so often the stock LES is under powered for the application, so I have to use the abort action key to MECO, stage the upper stage, and then power it away from the craft. @chimera industries I believe there’s a modded LES out there that tweaked the thrust vectors to be more reasonable for lighter craft.

I believe this is intended as a NSFW purge that’s happening over there. This is just another avenue to allow them to delete material of questionable content. Whether they will be mass deleting items not associated with an account regardless of content remains to be seen.

I’m guessing they just lost too many engines on one side to keep the craft stable through gimbal and throttle control. While it is very impressive to see it still flying after that many engine failures, it does speak to the viability of the current engine design.

For me, the really cool thing is the amount of really good engineering data they got. That thing failed in so many different ways, they’ll have a lot of stuff to work on. And the fact it failed in so many ways and kept going is really reassuring that they’re building a pretty robust system.

One of the most expensive cheering ever too.
