How else is one to play interstellar pool without an 8 ball?

Is it here yet?

Is it here yet? Is it here yet? Is it here yet? Is it here yet? Ok got that out of my system.

More or less the same. I went about designing the new solar array for my station (replacing the stock panels with the ones from Kosmos pack) but decided why bother when I know I will start a new career in .23 which comes out so soon? So then I went back to working with space planes and said why bother since I don't use them in career mode and I will start a new career in .23 So then I... yeah I waited for 0.23.

Most unexpected thing? I would say it was a tie. I had been playing with a mod that gives your kerbals a parachute when they go EVA and I hopped out of the pod (for science!) while it was on the way down and parachuted my way back to kerbin. Only to have my pod land on top of me... The other was I had a panic mass staging because my rocket was going haywire. Had one of my boosters circle back around and hit the command pod.

Not crazy about the flag, though I do like the idea behind using the flags to advertise. I don't know why, I just have the urge to take the label off of RC cola and make it RK cola (I have seen this bit done with coke label already but I didn't like it and think RC is a better fit). Then use that as the texture for the fuel tanks and make a little story about how with the funding cut the KSP had to search out alternate forms of funding.

Don't think this one really belongs... Some do have money, others have parents with money. That said I do agree with you on all other points made. Specially the "free copy" bit being a bit absurd, I was tempted to say something along the lines of "There is a demo for a reason..." but just passed on the thread entirely.

I agree. My vision for what tweakables would entail was somewhat grander than this (but hey its early) but I don't see the big hoopla here.

NovaPunch allows for a probe core to be in the first tier of career mode. However I find myself still not using it as I need several of them since I don't have batteries right off the bat.

Exactly, yet so many of them do. Same goes for maintenance/updates for online games. Should never say we expect a 4 hour downtime unless you are sure you can hit that 4 hours. Better to be known for overstating your downtime than for giving short ones and constantly being late.

Doesn't bother me so long as they stay relatively on time. It only bugs me when a game company routinely puts out a date for release and then falls behind it. I don't care if they intentionally long ball it, just so long as it is somewhat accurate.

The last time I tried this the chute ripped the back half of my plane off... Until I modded it. What exactly is happening when you land? If it is an issue with your gear not being strong enough you could use the steel beams to make a landing skid and land on those instead.

Oh cmon now. Small stuff can be fun, and small is relative. Small for Whackjob is still big for the rest of us and has the ability to be ridiculously complicated (looking anyway) and functional.

Mods I think would be nice: Kerbpaint would be nice. Procedural wings and fairings. Joint Reinforcement Crew Manifest (If not another way to transfer crew from docked ships without going EVA) Better aerodynamic models. Other things I would like that are part of mods but wouldn't want the whole mod: Docking camera (I like the one from Lazer, would just like the camera though not the whole mod) Orbital construction/off planet construction. Not exactly like the mod but rather the ability to add struts, I would also like the ability to add parts to ships that are already launched even if it does require going eva to attach them or something like that. Mechjeb/engineer (just the DV/TWR calcs)

I don't get the problem. Why am I supposed to be able to fit 400 fuel into a tank meant to only hold 360 by sacrificing a little oxidizer? I mean I will admit that this isn't exactly what I expected with tweakables but I don't see the big issue here. I did something somewhat like this. I took some of the radial mono tanks and changed them from monopropellant to oxidizer so I could add them to spaceplanes allowing my rocket engines to burn the jet fuel.

I will remember it forever.... Well maybe until a few minutes after I download .23

You can disable auto update in steam. Though it sometimes re-enables which is why I dislike steam.

What mod has those massive solar arrays? I've always wanted them but can never seem to find them.

I believe this is attempt #8 to send a new version of my general purpose tug into space... First I had launch clamp failures, then I replaced the SRB's with liquid fuel boosters then I suddenly had problems with the docking port sr not wanting to stay connected to the rest of the rocket, then I removed the sr (after strutting the hell out of everything it still wouldn't stay put) and restrutted everything and finally got it to space... only to find I screwed up on the fuel lines *flips table*

If the combination of fuel/rcs doesn't appear to be enough to get him home it could still at least get you orbital saving your rescue ship the hassle (and fuel) of landing.

Sabers have been confirmed. Only semblance of confirmation I have ever seen on a new planet was forumers saying things like "I bet we get a new planet like we did with Eeloo last year" which amounts to nothing but will lead to rabid foaming at the mouth mobs wielding pitch forks swearing up and down that it was promised if there isn't one anyway.

Gave up on my career mode, also gave up on my usual station building in sandbox with .23 looming I just didn't feel like putting in the work. I did however have some fun playing with the Bargain Rocket Parts Mod Easily my favorite parachute. Who wants a space burger?

Sent an expidition to Laythe. Was intending to leave them orbiting Jool for a while when I noticed this come up. Forced me to change my orbit early.

I just hope it comes out early enough before christmas that the few mods I am dead set on using are updated to work with it so I can hide from my family on the mun

Hmm if that is what srb plugs are that will make things interesting. Can already think of a few ways to improve my designs using variable thrust SRB's.
