false The user below me Didn't landed on Dres!

Thanks for the suggestions, guys! Now i've made my 2nd edit, with your opinions included: -Lifted (i don't know any better word) the wheels -Removed the Goo container (It was not extremely necessary) -Removed the RCS thrusters (At real, they were useless) So, i didn't made it longer, but i will make some tests with stability. Not any other science "thing", i don't think it can be very useful. But there's the pic album: Keep sending suggestions! EDIT Now i've tested it. very hardcore-like. I made a 2x timewarp and derped around the KSC. Not even one flipover! Wow! It's really more stable.

Yea, i didn't unlocked the Communotron 88 yet. ;-;

Grat design, i'll test the 6-wheeled rover.

On the back.

No, they're just to balance the Goo's weight. Everything weighs a lot on Eve.

No, it would weigh too much on Eve, and would look extremely weird. But thanks for the suggestion, maybe i shall edit it later.

Well, well, there I am, designing some cool rovers. Yeah, i were thinking a lot about them and now i have enough tech to do them. So, i've made an Eve rover, and i'm going to launch it soon. I want you guys, to help me to know if the rover need of anything to do a cool landing. I've already tested this design in 0.21.1 (look at my signature!), and it worked surprisingly well. This will be a unmanned mission. There's a pic right below. Tell me what you guys think. Oh, i'm on career mode. Just to advise. There's a Goo Container on the back, and the RCS thrusters are to balance the Goo. I'll add a parachute.

I made it... In the first try.

This is my first KSP history and English isn't my mother language. Sorry if i miss some words. Jeb and Bill were sitting in their chairs, in the astronaut complex. -Hey, Bill! I want to ask you a thing! -What, Jeb? -Well... There's any place that our community didn't have gone yet? -Hm... No, i think... -Wait! I know one place. The great and powerful Eve! -Oh, that's right Bob. Let's get some money, join some BOASTERS and we'll go there. Jeb walked to the wall, picked up his phone, and called Bob. -Bob? -Wadd's up, Jeb? Long time don't see ya! -Bob. Seriously. You look like a retard with these slangs. -Okay. Sorry. -I'm planning to go to Eve. It's the only place where we haven't gone yet. -Seriously? Well... I don't want to! I will be stranded! The gravity there is higher than ours, and the atmosphere, 5x thicker! -Oh... That's a problem. Then... Grrr! We won't be able to go there. Well, well. We will need to send an unmanned mission. -Okay! Then i'm in! See you in 30 minutes, ok? -Okay. Jeb drops the phone. -Bill... We'll need a satellite. -Alright. Let's do it. Part 2 will be released soon.

Please delete this.

Okay, Vex. It's my first time here, as you see, and General KSP Discussion sounded like the better option.

Hello world! This is my first thread in the forum, and in this topic i'll explain a bit about me. My history I've started playing KSP near the end of 2012, when i first saw cazum8's videos (he's a brazilian youtuber, so am I), and since then i didn't stopped playing. My first mission was trying to get out of the ground. It were very hard, because i didn't knew even that a Ant engine couldn't lift an Orange tank. I've needed to learn everything with no help, like Spacebar being the magic button, Shift increasing the thrust, and then -- I landed on the Mün. Wow, it was so cool, i taked my shirt off, jumped on my chair and said: -YES! I FINALLY LANDED ON THE MÜÜÜN!!! Sure, it was exactly like that. My mom had a small heart attack. Since then, i've been playing KSP every day of my life. No exceptions. Until near 2 weeks ago, i bought KSP for real. I gone to a bit of places, but only when i saw the sunrise on Eve, she ispired me to purchase the game. No one could make this game as beautiful as the Devs. They need some reward for making a game as cool as this. Now, i've made a forum account, and i WILL post cool things. I just need... Time. My missions My first target was to land on the Mun. It took about 1/3 of my full KSP time to do it. Wow, it was hard, even without these new craters on 0.21, i broke 2 out of 4 landing legs on my ship and almost destroyed my thruster. Well, nobody died. My second target was Minmus. "Hmm, this will be very hard" was my firs thought. But it wasn't. I came there with my experience from the Mun landing, and i landed on a frozen lake. "Woohoo!" was my thought. Since that landing made me learn A LOT about inclination, i made my next mission being even harder. Finally, the third target. I was very excited, because since that Minmus landing, i've learned a lot. There's a list of what: -Angular phases -Quicksave -Manuever planning -TWR (Thrust to weight ratio) -Delta-v -ISP -Eccentricity And a lot of other things. Then, watching Curiosity's touchdown, I've got an idea: -I'll take a car to Mar... Er, Duna! But i've looked at the atmosphere's thickness and thought: -Hm... Eve. Eve is beautiful. I'll go there. So, after half a year (by KSP time), i've gone there. Well, after 3 tries. The car got down gently, but i can't proof that because i updated KSP, so the mods that i used in the car were deleted, and the car too. The only thing i can show you is this line of code (persistent.sfs on my save): Eve { reached = 14261474.1342207 Flyby { completed = 14261474.1342207 } Orbit { completed = 14345687.4445326 vessel { name = Reconhecimento flag = Squad/Flags/default } } Landing { completed = 29826393.7325892 vessel { name = Reconhecimento Probe flag = Squad/Flags/default } } Splashdown { completed = 15166971.049022 } Well, that should proof something. I'm not very noob, i think. My next mission is Gilly. Well, that's enough, time to build something. See you later! ~O Nerd
