I reward you with a strange and uplifting breaking news story http://worldnewsdailyreport.com/china-miner-found-alive-after-17-years-underground/

Hahaha great username welcome here's a good one

some good stuff posted so far some brain melting bass of the finest caliber:

I can't tell you how many times the autosave has saved my career, I'm modded up to the memory limit so I get a lot of crashes. autosave seem to kick in after burns and SOI changes.

The title says it all, what toonz are you listening to atm?

You're welcome, ThatGalaxyMan, post pics of your creations if you can. I love seeing the awesome creativity that this game inspires.

The Infernal Robotics mod is a must, it has various translating and rotating parts: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/37707-0-23-5-Magic-Smoke-Industries-Parts-Infernal-Robotics-0-14-stable%29 Also I highly recommend Deadly Re-entry: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/54954-0-23-5-Deadly-Reentry-Continued-v4-7-5-5-14 it is gameplay changing but it makes the game more realistic and challenging, so it's hard to see any down side to that Also mods like Kerbal Alarm Clock and Precise Node are very useful without changing the gameplay http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/24786-0-23-5-Kerbal-Alarm-Clock-v2-7-3-0-%28April-9%29 http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/47863-0-23-5-PreciseNode-0-12-Precisely-edit-your-maneuver-nodes and all the beautification mods your pc can handle, I like this one http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/79345-Astronomer-s-Visual-pack-V3-BETA-is-out-and-it-looks-great!

nice looking first rocket, much better than my first welcome to the KSP community

Yep, I have to agree, make the splash for the full game what other game can give you this: "the pure majesty of it all brings a tear to my eye"

If you are seeing ablative shield as part of your resources panel then it's working (as far as I know) I think you can tweak the heating effects by changing the 'temperatureExponent =' setting in the DeadlyReentry.cfg file.

Sunshine deserves a mention, I was quite enjoying that until the ridiculous plot twist after they board the other ship, completely ruined the film.

sad news, RIP Hans

Every single sci-fi film with an external shot of a spacecraft in which you can hear the engines. which seems to be pretty much all of them

Ah that's good to know, thanks I'll give it a shot ok, thanks

I'd love to use this, looks nicer than BA4, but the dependencies are just crazy. I can understand ATM and EVE but the rest should be down to individual choice. Hot Rockets and Cool Rockets both have too many issues, the latest chatterer doesn't work as well as the really old version i'm already using and Soundtrack Editor is just putting more crap into the game that I don't want, I don't listen to the music. Dependencies should be as minimal as possible, not forcing everyone to have exactly the same mod list.

space stations and bases aren't really much fun for me at the moment. If I ever get a monster gaming rig or if squad ever get round to optimizing I'd love to build those.

I haven't taken the test yet, might do later. Just wanted to say hello to another voluntaryist.

something like the nexus would be nice, it's always easy to find the good stuff on that site.

don't confuse statutes with morality, there is no connection only common law is based on morality. statutes are a legal trick that only apply to corporations, but because of people's lack of knowledge in the law and the corruption of legal establishments they are applied to citizens as a source of income for the private courts.

First time I landed on the Mun I underestimated the dv required to get back and had to get out and push for a good twenty minutes to get the periapse into Kerbin's atmosphere.

did you wait more than a couple of minutes? the first time you load a new texture with Active Texture Management it can take quite a while to make the cache files. that particular file is very big and will take some time to compress. EDIT apologies Fenrir, I was a bit slow posting there.

fair enough, you're right it is fairly easy to do myself. I just keep forgetting.

Great idea, would it be possible to add in a downtime requirement for kerbals so that after a mission individual crewmembers can't be used for a certain amount of time?

Me too, love the Total War games (I think Rome 2 fell a bit short of the mark) occasionally Modded Civ 4 but really just waiting for a few releases at the moment. Especially the Forest, open alpha begins in a few weeks and it already looks stunning and I love survival horror

I don't agree, but this is getting into politics I suppose. happy to discuss in PM's though
