  1. Meh - they're not too bad. The full moon base is only 332 parts. The kerbin depot is 430 parts, Mun depot is 246 and Minmus depot is 207. You can tell that I got better at building as I went since they got smaller with similar fuel capacities as I went and learned lessons from the previous ones. Maybe my computer's just decent but anything under 500 parts runs fine for me.
  2. Finally put up some structures I thought were worth a look so I thought I'd share them. The first is my Mun base comprised of 10 separate pieces & the 2 rovers I used to help assemble it all (wanted to avoid having wheels on the base components). There's plenty of space to add additional components but I'll have to see how the frame rate goes. Also, I thought next to the arch would be a good spot for a station, but it's on a slope so it's sometimes a bit awkward to get pieces to dock. Next are my orbital refueling depots, so far one around Kerbin, one around the Mun and one around Minmus. Next step is to add some reusable landers/shuttles onto the extra docking ports and possibly (they're all stock for now) get some Kethane mining going. Or possibly to get an equivalent refueling depot around some of the outer planets, although I imagine that could be rough. I assembled the Mun depot around Kerbin and then sent the whole thing to the Mun (that was dumb), but assembled the Minmus depot on location and that was far easier. Live and learn I guess. Kerbin Depot: Mun Depot: Minmus Depot: Thoughts on what to do next? Or let me know if anybody is interested and I can try to figure out how to put up some craft files.
  3. Just a quick question to either Temstar or any of you other experts who know what you're doing: How did you get the 12 engine cluster on the 2.5m fuel tank with stock parts? With the aerodynamic tail section or cubic struts the most I get is 6+1 configuration, not an 8+4 configuration like is seen on the aforementioned Zenith IX central core. Are there other structural elements that are used to space out the aerodynamic tail sections further? Are the radial coupling pieces used? Just curious - it's a great setup. Thanks for the help!
