Oh my god, I totally forgot about this. It's amazing!
-
Looking awesome man! However, I feel that you could have also made a nose/tail cone to match the adapters. Other than that, it's perfect

"I don't want it because I won't be able to run it" - a number of people
Then how about a simple checkbox that toggles it in the settings so that those who do want it can use it and those who can't don't have to?
-
Why won't the RPM work for me? It says that there's some sort of initialization error and that I have to check the config.
-
Look at my replika
Could we have a .craft file for that?
-
Porkjet, would you be able to put up the latest SpaceplanePlus link on the first page of this thread and on the release thread? Just so we can easily grab the latest version without sifting through pages upon pages and so that we be assured we're downloading the latest release.

Some problems if I may (great work on this orbiter nonetheless, It's amazing
)-- It handles somewhat like a brick
-- The ASAS is weird in that it sometimes won't hold a position
-
Lets get more Earth like... a few planets or moon... asteroids?
Wiht names like
Carl Sagan
Neil Armstrong
I'd love an asteroid named after a politician so we can nuke it to death.
I'm making a system based on current capabilities of the game engine which the devs are using (with exception to Uletis), so I don't yet want to add asteroids.
In regards to the names, currently none of the names, as far as I know, (apart from Eve) are in common English.

I had an idea for a larger but more desolate system than Kerbol system.

Wait, so you're no longer using that custom IVA panel?
-
Using your inflatable hab module and the centrifuge I made an awesome two-piece Duna transfer vehicle!
-
Funny coincidence, just yesterday I launched the craft which is going to do exactly that. Well, minus the apollo-style part. Looks more like one Deep Space Habitat concept.
*snip*
The thing is sturdy, barely weighs 30 tons with empty tanks and can be easily configured for various purposes (slap NERVAs on it and you can return from Eeloo), so I'm thinking of releasing some variations once I polish and test them.
That thing is awesome. I've always wanted to do a fly-by mission, but I worry about the orbital maneuvering involved.
-
That thing is shockingly fast. Very impressed with your work
-
Does this still work for 0.23?
-
Saturn's rings are, at most, 15m thick
-
I'm going to bump this because it's a kludge that ruined one of my recent vehicles. I built an aeroplane designed to parachute probes down across Kerbin - a stylish way to grab all the different sorts of Science available. Or it would be, if the game didn't delete all my probes before they could land.
That's hardly the biggest concern in a case like this. Think about the 2.5k radius physics bubble that sits around your ship. The problem you'll still get is that the probes' parachutes won't deploy and you'll still lose them.

I'm almost certain that we've had this thread before.
-
"Union Pacific", not the other way around.
-
Woah. Most stock ISS replicas are not very well made, but this one is absolutely amazing. How's the part count on this beast?
-
The first main problem with making the X3 an SSTO is that it has no tanks with oxidizer. I could empty some of the tanks though, seeing as the thing has enough fuel to circumnavigate Kerbin possibly twice, and clip in some LFO tanks.
The second main problem is that it's too tail heavy, but that could probably be fixed with tweaking the fuel count too.
-
Give that the R.A.P.I.E.R engines are a new technology IRL in development AFAIK, I'm disappointed that they're not significantly better ISP and TWR-wise. I mean, is new tech not supposed to be much better than older tech?
-
Could you show us how it deals with a payload?
-
Always avoid alliteration...
That's not actually alliteration. That's assonance
-
Oh man, that comet looks sick. Do you plan on making the tail more uneven and more blurry?

I'll be honest, I agree with the distaste towards the barrel design. Also, I'm not a huge fan of the wide rim at the ends of the tanks. I think a re-model wouldn't be an unreasonable idea from an art style aspect
