+1 to Uncle Mort and also to Yarrula! These are both ideas that I have been thinking about, as I too find the "Rescue" missions to be some of the more exciting ones; not to mention, they've lead to pretty interesting ship designs on my part ! Variations in inclinations, elliptical orbits, and rescue kerbal from a celestial body missions would be GREAT improvements to this already awesome system!

Thank you SQUAD!

Was just gonna do this! hhahaha good job everyone!

Everyone in the Steamdb-announce IRC make sure your name starts with "Hype"-something ..... let's see how many of us are really in there!! hahaha

What he said ^

http://www.twitch.tv/matoroignika ALL ABOARRRD THE HYPETRAIN, NEXT STOP MINMUS!!! Seriously though, come on by Mat's stream fellow passengers, this stuff is great!

http://www.twitch.tv/matoroignika HYPETRAIN HAS ARRIVED ON MINMUS! ALL ABOARRRD!!!

Ohhh, I had never heard of Steamdb before today. Thanks And they've also changed price to 0 in GER now too... strange. Price going up with this update mayhaps?

What you mean by issues with Steam's tos? I may be missing something here? Please elaborate...

I understand what you are saying, but keep in mind that they are not setting expectations. We are. I read this as next week at best, but what do I know... Except how to not set my expectations too high and be disappointed. (EDIT: I am referring to myself, not insinuating anything.) What Beta said ... nobody's setting expectations but yourself, blizzy.

This little spitfire of an aircraft could do it all! Loops, Immelmann Turns, endless Barrel Rolls .... Everything, except hold the engine on after landing! This was all well and good if we're landing back at KSC, but what about SCIENCE! expeditions that could use the engine after landing for, you know, returning? Introducing, THE LANDING-ONLY LANDING GEAR!!! I added this third wheel to the back, under the engine, and removed it from the 'Gear' action group, and inserted it in an action group of its own. This way, I can have it retracted for take-off, and extended for landing! The engineers back at KSC are real proud of this one, saves a lot of engines! Happy flying!

I'm failing to see the point of this....

I'm gonna start a war, I'm sorry ... but, adding MechJeb would be as far from stock as possible.

Just saw this for the first time... awesome work Tommygun! Had me in stitches the whole time!

Yes!! Ditto to what Sean said ... I have nothing against people who use mods; good for you and great for supporting the wonderful and dedicated team of modders that exist in this community. When I see a pic/vid of something that has been done with mods, my first reaction is usually "Wow, that looks pretty freaking cool!" .. However, as Sean stated, my next reaction is usually along the lines of, "well, I wonder how much easier that was than trying to do it stock?" On the other hand, when I see pics/vids of stock-made crafts, I can easily relate to how easy or difficult it must have been to overcome some of the design challenges. Also, I can safely request the .craft files of any stock ships that I want to try. Again, nothing against the mod-users, you guys can do some pretty amazing things! I just like that sense of accomplishment I get after completing a mission completely stock !

Greetings fellow spacefarers! Been lurking around the forums for about a week now, figured I'd pop in and say hello! Seems to be a pretty great community here, hope I can get to know some of ya! I picked up KSP just under 2 weeks ago, and if not for the (supposed) imminent release of .21, I'd have well over 72hrs into the game already, I'm sure ... I've just been trying to not get too into it before I lose my save... not to mention I feel that if I'm going to be learning the whole game anyways, I might as well learn it with the new features coming in .21 as opposed to learning all about .20 and then re-learning for .21 ... Up to now I've had a few successful Mun landings and returns, a couple rovers (one manned, one unmanned) on the Mun and also an unmanned rover on Minmus. No interplanetary stuff yet, and I'm also yet to try out docking. All in due time.... I am having just as much fun flying my sub-orbital planes around Kerbin. Just last night I completed my first successful recovery mission, picking up Donsted Kermin from almost halfway around Kerbin (total flight time was around 3hrs IIRC)... Safe travels everyone!

I call this one "Homeward Bound" ... The first use of the SuperSim IV - R, built for recovering Kerbals who land a little too far from home...

Circumnavigate Kerbin in a plane without any refuelling stations.

Made up this little beauty last night... Red Hot Space Program (from Red Hot Chili Peppers, for those who don't know)...
