  1. NightFlight to Duna, er, I meant Venus. Since for some reason whenever I hit the launch button, it's night at the launch pad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dL68EKM91bA
  2. Yes... Yessss.... Let your feelings floooow.... Yes.... Join the Dark Side and you can rule the Galaxy......! That said, a few simple info-mods can make the game less frustrating. The first mods I used (not sure which order) are KAC and Navball Docking Alignment Indicator (just a little plugin to make docking much easier). But ya, mods are like cookies (or is it Lays chips), it's hard to stop at just one. Then I went and got KER and Enhanced Navball. Finally, when I ran out of goals (returned from everywhere, altho I used the cheat-seat on Eve), I fully embraced the Dark Side and ate a whole box of cookies: FAR, Deadly Reentry, Proc Fairings, and Chatterer (for ambience). Don't worry, I still have a kernel of Light Side tucked away, no MJ (yet).
  3. Tsk Tsk. Episode 5, The Empire Strikes Back. Turn in your lightsaber
  4. Marvin, the Paranoid Android, from HHGttG! "Sir, the possibility of successfully navigating an asteroid field is approximately three thousand, seven hundred and twenty to one!"
  5. ... when you just raise your orbit to cross the Mun orbit, then warp until an encounter occurs. That's how I got to the Mun the first few times. .... when you don't know what a maneuver node is, how it works, or how to make or use one.
  6. Yup, it needs fins. Big ones, by the looks of it. Slimming the fairing will also help, if you can. Reaction wheels may also help to fight the flip, but it needs fins to naturally fly straight, just like an arrow. I'll assume the rocket is bending because it is flipping
  7. Of course, if mass is no issue, this is the heavy nuke lander I sent almost everywhere. Couldn't quite do both ways on Tylo. 5k dV, 48 tons, with a pair of Mark 55 radials that double the thrust for "emergency power" Edit: The 4 LV-N's also augment the ones on the tug/fuel barges to reduce the burn times
  8. Of course, every time I look it's a grey screen.
  9. The Dark Tower series, actually. Specifically, The Waste Lands. You're up. Lord Potato, sir.
  10. Fine then. Answer the first riddle and what's my favorite source for the river riddle?
  11. You know, I came up with a few original riddles earlier, but now I can't seem to think one up. Hmmm..... Who lives in a pineapple under the sea? Absorbent and yellow and porous is he! Nah, too easy for anyone with kids. I'll have to turn to my favorite source again. Eventually my riddle will be to ask what is my favorite source for riddles! What has a bed but never sleeps Has a head but never weeps Has a mouth but never talks Always runs but never walks?
  12. Ya, that new one had some components from Skynet, and it felt threatened by his creations....
  13. Digital or manila, those files are toast
  14. You guys were getting soooo close! It's a wheelbarrow! 2 arms, 2 feet, carries heavy loads....
  15. Meanwhile, on the Mun, Bill is trying to make sandcastles while waiting for rescue. It's not going so well with no bucket and no water to hold the regolith together.
