Kicking the straw man? I honestly don't see the point of your post.

Ovo je vjerojatno najpametnija igrica na koju možeš potrošiti novac. Puno pametnija nego najpopularnije igre koje postoje. KSP je na rasprodaji svaki put kada Steam ima ljetnu i zimsku rasprodaju. Ponekad se dogodi rasprodaja i između ta dva događaja, ali je nepredvidljiva. Rasprodaja se zna dogoditi i na drugim mjestima. Pretplati im se na Facebook ili Twitter, tamo izvijeste o tome.

I've never seen G-meter going into negative area, despite bumping into water, land, another craft... What are the precise conditions for that? I'd like to replicate it.

That's not an accent nor dialect (I think you were talking about a dialect). Nuclear is a new, modern word. It entered the common language in the era of atomic weapons, so it can't be called a dialect; it's too young. Nuclear comes from nucleus. Nucular doesn't come from anything. It's a bastardization of a word. I wouldn't patronize people from southern USA states by saying that's how all of them pronounce it. It's kind of insulting.

They often significantly magnify the change of inclination. Fiddling with decimal values on one end results in significant changes. That's why I rarely use them.

The thrust area is divided by 15 parts. If full thrust has value 1, each part is 1/15 = 0.06666..., or 6.66666...% There are basically three more of those parts above 100%. The highest one would account for a total of 120% thrust. Is it there just for good looks or is it planned to actually serve a purpose, for example short term boost which leads to overheating and explosion (there's an idea for a mod!)? On the right side is G-meter. From 0 to 15 G. 0-2 G is green, 9-15 is red. But what's below zero? There's -5 G. Negative acceleration is used when vectors are important. If you're on a rollercoaster, anything that drives you into the bottom and crushes you to the seat is positive G, and hilltops are areas where you experience 0 or acceleration in the opposite direction of gravity, so it's named negative G. I've never seen this part of G force navball actually working. What's the reason behind it? Again, just for looks or there's a plan for it? It would be very useful for flying planes, for example. And again, that's an idea for a mod.

I've gave it a serious thought when they were released, but even the smallest class is pretty hard to tug to Moho, Dres and Eeloo. You might use Hyper Edit, but it's more Kerbal to tug them. They shouldn't have any measurable gravity field because they're too small. Look at Gilly, and Gilly is enormous compared to the largest class.

Yes, this is a known bug. It pisses me off because it goes in the way when I do EVA.

Demo je, prema podacima s wiki, u v.0.18.3. verziji. Puno se toga promijenilo odonda. Ako baÅ¡ toliko voliÅ¡ KSP, uÅ¡tedi i priÄÂekaj rasprodaju na Steamu, pa ga kupi. NećeÅ¡ zažaliti, stvarno se isplati, a uostalom, Squad to zaslužuje.

It sounds like it should go in the same bin as nucular.

Who teaches this crap?

I think a lot of folks know Pluto was discovered by someone in USA, and I remember those "protests" with a quite nationalistic (not patriotic, mind that!) accent. Basically nobody outside USA gives a flying crap about the new classification. It's popular to be butthurt in USA only.

Who the hell uses the word "centrifical"?

Every classification is arbitrary. Things in nature don't come with labels on them. People classify them. The current classification's power is in the combination of its parts. It shows the history of planetary evolution. There are planets and there are larger lumps of crap scattered everywhere. It's pretty straightforward. Some of the lumps are large enough to have a hydrostatic equilibrium, big deal. I said 50, and the probable number is waaaay more bigger. I wouldn't be surprised if there were thousands of such objects, not even counting in the stuff in Oort cloud.

I'm doing something I've never done before - sending Jeb, Bob and Bill everywhere and always returning them home. They already were everywhere, but didn't always come home. The probes did it. Such missions include even the most difficult places like Tylo and Eve. Eve was dealt with here. This one is a returnable mission to Tylo and includes aerobraking at Jool in conditions presented by Deadly Reentry mod. Other mods used in the mission are: Procedural Parts for production of nice tanks, DMagic Orbital Science to make the vessel look more realistic, ALCOR for its superior capsule, KOSMOS for its superior engines, and Kerbal Attachment System to strut everything together after assembly in LKO so the engines can burn at 100% thrust without the danger of losing stability. The actual ship is a heavy tug with two LV-N engines and radiation shield. It was launched using a powerful, custom made rocket with two stages and boosters. Jettisoning the first stage and fairing. The tug, ready for assembly. Returnable lander for Tylo uses an ALCOR pod and KOSMOS engines, and has over 3500 m/s of delta-v for landing and ascent to orbit, respectively. It carries a detachable surface antenna. To save on fuel, a 7.5 m shield will be used to aerobrake at around 125 km above Jool. It shields all parts of the whole vessel from burning up. It was added separately, docked to the lander and strutted with KAS. Assembled ship has over 12,600 m/s of delta-v with plenty more in reserve because the lander will be left orbiting Tylo and the shield will be dumped into Jool.

It won't happen.

I think this whole butthurting nagging is really pathetic and annoying. Pluto was always an outcast and it shouldn't be called a planet in the first place. I always felt it didn't belong to the group. There was a time when Ceres was considered being a planet. Does anyone nag about Ceres? No. Why? Probably because it wasn't discovered by an American. Yeah, sorry, but that's the core of the problem. Nationalism. Plain and simple. Boo-hoo. Pluto is one of many similar bodies outside Neptune's orbit. There's a ton of them and we've just started discovering them. Who wants a solar system with 50 planets?

I'm ok with Windows 7. The best OS I've ever installed. It's not broken, so I'm not fixing it. Supposedly 8.1 was enough nineish, and there's also marketing tricks for calling this 10.

Vulcan hypothesis. Small planet inside Mercury's orbit.

Yes, and to frolic in the ice crystals. I'm quite sure there are some massive optical halos on every comet.

As said in the earlier posts, it would be cool to measure pressure, temperature, relative humidity, ionizing radiation. Yes, actual counters you hold in your hand and wander around are expensive. DIY counters are very cheap. There are no rapid temperature changes during balloon ascent even if the tube is outside the insulating capsule, which is not the case.

This is lovely. http://www.esa.int/spaceinimages/Images/2014/10/Comet_on_26_September_NavCam

If it's done like in this famous viral video, then I'm ok with it. In other news, Pong gets to be made into a movie, too.

What is "multiples of star's core"? Amount of plasma? No, it can't. Tokamak works with measly amounts of matter. That is true, and it's an interesting problem to solve. It might be done using a heat exchange loop. One coolant, let's say NaK/Hg, is in a main pressure vessel's coolant system. It collects the heat which has crept inside and gives it to an outer coolant system which is water at environmental pressure, shielded from heat. Water is extremely poorly compressible, so you just need to keep it relatively cool. IIRC, temperature gradient is gentle compared to pressure gradient in Iovian planets. I think that is scientifically sound, but the engineering part is tricky. What do you think?

If they do it properly regarding vacuum, Newton's laws, I'm sold.
