  1. And here's the outline of the reconstructed tutorial. I have a brand-new format for this one, which I don't believe has been attempted before. Craft Construction Navball Basics Flight Basics Orbital Mechanics and Maneuver Nodes Rendezvous Docking and RCS Tutorial Rendezvous and Docking from Launch Inclined Orbit 01 Inclined Orbit 02 Elliptical Orbit 01 Elliptical Orbit 02 Asteroid Training 01 Asteroid Training 02 Asteroid on Flyby Trajectory Asteroid on Impact Trajectory Extreme Scenario 01 - 2 Thruster Docking Extreme Scenario 02 - Misaligned Thruster Docking Extreme Scenario 03 - No Thruster Docking I've set up about 50% of the tutorial at this time. I'm going to put up some previews up in its official thread a few days before release. EDIT: I was trying to edit the .sfs file for a part of the tutorial and had the brilliant idea to set the eccentricity value (ECC) to 1. The Hell Kraken ate all of my KSP. Oh, well. I hadn't really gotten underway yet with the hard bits.
  2. 57. Bash it multiple times with a hammer. It will either start working again, or you can be pretty darn sure that it won't start working again. In that case, go get a new one.
  3. Why so much binary? 8/10 The username is hard to forget.
  4. This should really be in the Development sub-forum. But how about stack-mounted monoprop engines and radial VERNOR engines in a RCS Thruster block configuration?
  5. *uses experimental HypeThruster to propel detached carriage back to the HypeTrain, welds couplers together.*

    Puns!

    Shame I can't rep you, sir.
  7. I have two solutions for the fact that the HypeShuttle is catching up. 1) I propose modifying the HypeTrain's locomotive while in motion. Based on the theory of a track pan (see Track Pan) we place HypeIntakes on the HypeTrain to boost its speed. 2) When a new update arrives at last, everyone seems to notice that the hype disappears from the forums. It does, but Hype does not follow the law of Entropy. I have a massive HypeCollector in my basement, and about 3-4 updates worth of Hype. I was attempting to make a HypeBooster, but will gladly spare the entire collection. I can condense said Hype into a superdense form of HypeCoal, which should increase the Hypetrain's speed by approximately 23.9% Gregroxmun, I await your confirmation. I'm way in the back if you need me, or my equipment.

    Is it "Spanglish"? @Red Iron Crown: I don't think the answer's a tongue. "Away from home not often found" doesn't make much sense.

    Hmm. Vexx's pen riddle a while back really did come to me in a flash of inspiration (I was reading the riddle again when my teacher told the class to take out a pen and I was like ) Thinking, but still a blank.
  10. Not exactly what you're looking for, but my docking tutorial has some tips and tricks for maneuver nodes and the navball. There's a link in my signature. Hope we can help you with whatever needs helping.

    I don't even... I'm not getting into this riddle anymore. So lost.
  12. Latest career mode Duna SCIENCE harvester. Decided to visit Ike first, and got this nice pic.
  13. Banned for breaking the chain of Alliteration!
  14. I had a screenshot somewhere, can't find it now. Mmh. I did stock fairings once, used Sepatrons, Structural Panels and Decouplers. Again, can't find the screenshot(s).
  15. I was launching a career Duna science harvester when I realized that the capsule alone on the launcher could not possibly roll the entire craft like it was. I had no RCS or Reaction Wheels (Which came to haunt me when the Gyro Kraken decided to focus it's powers on the craft for the ENTIRE MISSION ). I snapped this screenshot: Kind of hard to see, but the engines are gimballing to roll the craft. I've never noticed this before. When was this added?
  16. You've got it. Now get out if you're slow, your lack of hype could damage the HypeTrain. EDIT: That seems harsh, now that I read it again. *In turret voice* "No hard feelings?"
  17. The fact that the Mk2 Fuselage carries less fuel than the Mk1 makes no sense to me. (120 LF versus 150 LF) Now, that's probably going to be fixed in 0.25, but it is annoying. (I literally just had the idea to edit the config ) The other thing: AND Why are the thrusters on the texture mismatched? (I think they are, forgive me if I'm mistaken.) Shouldn't there be 2 thrusters going in one direction and two in the other, rather than 3 and 1? Just pointing this out to whomever it may concern.
  18. I have seen both movies, and appreciate them as they are. Just like I appreciate Gravity for what it is. (was?) But I have my quirks with every movie/TV show I watch. (Except for Doctor Who, because, well, reasons.) Gravity was a good movie for it's cinematography and the overall plot, but I realize everything that is wrong with it. Same with HTTYD 1 or 2. Good movies for animation quality (actually what got me into modeling) and plotline. When you see , do you cringe at it? I don't. I see it as fun and amusing.And that's my two cents.
  19. This is a strange issue. I know squat about iMac OS, but is it possible to copy over or reinstall the KSP directory into their accounts directly? I use a private laptop, so I don't have any admin issues (I'm the admin.) Again, I have no skills with Macs, so don't rely on my judgement. Welcome to the forum anyway, though.
  20. EDIT: Delay while I get GIF working.
