Octagon

Yes, I took some care, just using them at the launch phase. Also, I've assured that all of them were destroyed to avoid any incompatibility problem.

Just complementing: We should also reduce the maximum part per player, 100 is to high.

My report: Mission: Add fuel tanks and modular docking ports. Status: Complete. Aldrin plus parts file: https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=130942DBDAE1E68E!176 Photographic data: This are the parts inside the the rocket cargo bay. This engine is used to tow the pieces to a high orbit. Delta class rockets at the launching site. The largest one sometimes receives some solid fuel boosters for take-off. To Aldrin!!! Getting things into orbit. Beginning transfer. Getting to Aldrin. My original idea was to have six Orange tanks attached to it, but the lag... SO THIS IS THE FINAL LOOK!!! "Drum roll..." P.S.: I'm afraid that the station has now to many pieces. If is the case, I recommend dropping off some fuel tanks and creating an "station mate" for Aldrin.

Roger that commander, beginning mission.

Nice challenge, I'll add some fuel tanks. I'm ready to do this right now if you need. Edit: Can I use the system I developed for the space station that I'm building? It allows to add an unlimited number of fuel tanks.

I noticed something curious: Every time a post appears on this tread something like 2 or 3 players join the game, which is amazing, but can turn into a problem. By problem I mean, if everybody uses the entire two weeks given by the rules the game, it will only end in 14 months(considering 4 week months and the actual cont of players: 28), which is more then a year. Of course the players probably will not use all the time and, maybe, some will give up the game but is to much time. What I suggest is: separate the player in groups (2 or 3) all of them with the same mission (in a competition or not) to make this more dinamic. This is, of course, only one idea. But I repeat that we must take care with the time. Any other ideas?

Name: Octagon World: All (except "Eve", if I need to bring something back from there) Character name: O'tagon Kerman Skills: Capable of complete build/pilot small/medium spaceplanes ( take-off, orbiting and landing with out parachutes). Large experience in building Space Stations over kerbin and Duna. Visited all Interior worlds( Moho, Eve, Kerbin) and the exteriors, Duna and Jool( and it's moons). Never been to Eeloo. No "MechJeb". Anything that is related to Jool is a "easy cake".

It was not that hard (using VTOL system): But a guess you should give us more data. Coordinates, limitations, time, max altitude... MOD: Octagon Storm-Pack, not released yet.

Do a loop! You will expend the time that will be used to gain altitude. I tried it and, as Zarakon said: Is hard to keep high altitudes. To the conventional side, the plane flies like a plume.

Thank you Zeroignite. To accomplish the task, I used only one engine. The trick is to fly at high altitudes (in this case +-33000 meters) keeping the engine at less then a third, so this is also an economic way to circumnavigate. I'm now working on a plane capable of flying at +-41000 meters and 2300m/s. Rocket-assisted take-off is good way to start, although I haven't used it.

My entry: MET: 37:04 MODS: No Mods, pure skill. No rocket engines, only jet. I will post a faster plane later.

Use this MOD (I know its mine): http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/showthread.php/32952-Octagon-Corporation-release-zone To get to mün and mimmus.

Thank you!!!

Octagon-3 "Deep Purple": P.S.: Its release is delayed because the landing gear has given some problems. P.P.S.: I'm sorry I can only show the pictures, I decided I will get the O-3 "Deep Purple" fixed before release it. P.P.P.S.: You can help with the Landing Gear here: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/showthread.php/40382-Landing-Gear-Problems

I may admit, I liked it alot. Feel free to distribute it. Now some upgrades: This is our most advanced system. Since our engineers discovered that traveling at light speed is forbidden, go faster is the only option. With this we are making experiments and research about warp engine technology. We still don't have a A.I.(plugin not ready) capable of controling this engine, so it will not be avaiable very soon. But other things will: Octagon-3 (Purple-1) It is a space-shuttle-like ship. Its main task is to provide support for orbital operations (Cargo, pieces, crew...), has improved atmospherical capabilities for landing fase. It will include new pieces such, but not limited, as: Cargo bay, warp drive RCS block (derivated from large warp drive technology), new crew commandpod. I expect to delivery it at Friday. Octagon-4 Heavy Duty Cargo System (Jules Verne Class) A extra large rocket for extra-large payloads, still a secret. Coming soon.

Sure you can, as is in the IMPORTANT READ ME file: THIS A FREE DISTRIBUTION, FREE USE MOD. You can use it in what ever you want. About the uses. Well, the space is not the final frontier anymore. The red series are just getting started. Although they were created for space research they have several uses. We are now working on three new systems: Frontal Cargo Bay (for a unmanned reusable cargo rocket), Crew Carrier( It reduces the total ammount of fuel, but give the hability to carry 10 Kerbals to-and-from space), Conventional Cargo Bay(to be implemented on Purple series, space shuttle like missions). For the future you may expect interplanetary systems and Extra-Large Rocket systems, like the TOP-Secret project called Julio Verner. Everthing is possible, as Jules Verne said: “Anything one man can imagine, other men can make realâ€Â. For MechJeb Users: When landing on mun set the landing speed to 0.5m/s. And, when returning from mun with auto-pilot DO NOT LET THE ROCKET CORRECT ITS TRAJECTORY INSIDE THE ATMOSPHERE, you will lose the control and will become the heaviest-red-and-white-flying-bomb every built. And remember: "Imagination rules the world"(Napoleon Bonaparte)

For more infomartion, please see the first page of the thread. Now avaiable to download!!!

Thank you all for your evaluation, I'm glad to see you have enjoyed it. And I have a surprise for you: Octagon-2: Please notice the customized RCS and the new power source. Blue-1: I haven't release then yet because of Blue-1. It is designed to be launched on other planets and I'm having problems with my cargo system. But I belive you can do a Test-Drive on them. I'll upload them in 12 standard hours, after some flight tests. Once again, thank you all!!!

Really nice addon. But I guess i did something wrong. My rockets always explodes when they touch the asteroid: Octagon-1(with new unreleased wings) attempts to land. After that, the entire rocket explodes, speed= 0.1 m/s What I did wrong ?

This is the link I promised you: https://skydrive.live.com/embed?cid=5A1054CCBFEFDA31&resid=5A1054CCBFEFDA31%21108&authkey=ADeSaruvP_hRbSw Attention MechJeb users: MechJeb do not recognize Jet Engines on its stage system, you need drop the auxiliary rockets manually. We will enjoy your comments about our products and your ideas, by here or by personal message.

Updates!!! Hi everybody, after the great sucess of the Octagon-1 we decided to make some updates. So, we would like to present you the Conformal Fast Assembly Auxiliary Rocket (CoFAAR): This system is a highly advanced jet engine, adapted to work at high altitudes, which is capable of lunch the rocket to more 20Km before it fires it's main engine. With them is possible to reach mun!!! P.S.: Since this part is under final development, its download link will be available as soon as it is finished.

Octagon, proprietário e CEO da Octagon Corporation, se apresentando. A corporação é nova, mas cheia de energia. Adoramos novas ideias, de preferência as mais malucas. Se precisarem de alguma peça basta pedir e faremos o possível para atender.

Perfect! "Destination Moon" and "Explorers on the moon" are my favorite Tintin stories. Another thing I like is this old fashioned visual. So, you may expect more of this. Sure! In fact, I used this rocket to learn the basic know-how(thats the reason it has five different parts, and a simple shape). The next mission is a manned flight to mun. Thank you for writing, sugestions and comments are always welcome. And, I belive, our part requests sector will be working very soon.

I will post the link as soon as it is avaiable on spaceport. I've uploaded the file but is not there yet. Thank you for writing. P.S.: Thank you for your spell tip, since Shakespeare language is not my mother language, any help is welcome.
