  1. agreed. if i am eva at high speed and my toe taps the ground i dont want to tumble forever. if i ragdoll up a slope and get airtime, let me reactivate my pack please <3
  2. perhaps a "station lab" part could spawn random test results for 50-150 science every 24 hours (when in space for a day/not on kerbin) they cannot be transmitted, and so require return trips(send up a kerbal, eva to grab the experiment, bring it home) it would encourage rotating your crew,building good ssto craft,learning docking (all semi-realistic things a space program would do) Squad could write up 20 or so random fluff texts to go with the experiments. it technically could get spammed, but really to go to that length for some science, let em.
  3. no one can be right or wrong here, i just like hearing how others use them and their "rules" for them. ive always only used them for out of atmosphere interplanetary tugs until i thought about a Duna lander (which worked fine with 2 small srbs to boost me out of the bulk of dunas thin air )
  4. I was designing a Duna lander today, and wanted to use the LV-N, but then thought about possibly irradiating Duna's atmosphere in the act. So I looked into "Nuclear thermal rockets" as the ksp wiki called them. Seems there are 3 types: Solid core, Liquid core, and Gas core http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_thermal_rocket#Types_of_Nuclear_Thermal_Rockets Now, the last type, Gas, runs off a hypothetical concept called a "nuclear lightbulb" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_lightbulb That design releases no radioactive material in operation, no matter in atmosphere or not. Which type do you think the LV-N is? And I know there is no "radiation" in stock ksp, this is just a question for those who like to add their own rules.
  5. but docking and getting to orbit is most of the fun part. any sort of stock mechjeb would de-value anyones accomplishments if they used it
  6. either "two steps from hell" or "E.S. Posthumus", "The Going Quantum Podcast" or "Welcome to nightvale" the last is really enjoyable.
  7. only laythe and kerbin i belive. aerospikes have been recomended for eve. i also suggest some srbs, but ie never made it back from eve, so take that with salt
  8. yes, agreeed. also, i think placeable cameras would be nice for unmanned rovers, and helpful for docking. i would also like a stock biome scanner so i can see biome boundries on my map and plan missions for areas where biomes are near each other or where multiple biomes intersect. "Knowing is half the battle"
  9. saturn has not cleared its surrounding area right? is it not a planet?
  10. i do like the suggestion of adding the massless parts cumulative mass to the cg
  11. as do i. at most i forsee a sample grabbing animation where a kerbal bends down for a sample
  12. i wish revert to vab remembered crew selection. heck, i wish the vab remembered crew selection. if you pick a crew and then click the parts tab, it forgets your crew. SO AGGRAVATING
  13. we need better aerodynamics and more spaceplane parts in the same update.
  14. try this one: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/59545-Extraplanetary-Launchpads-v3-4 ive read it fits your description: ores, refinerys, smelters, make your own parts, that kind of stuff. KSP is about 2 things: Building Rockets, and Exploring that literally is the game. heres how i describe it to friends: "you build your own rocket out of a bunch of different parts and get to explore this huge solar system" Stop insulting folks, and try to enjoy the game.
  15. a munar station with a big full orange tank,a lander to refuel, and a lab. drain all of the muns science, then boost your mun station orbit to minmus and do it again.
  16. http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/75272
  17. yeah, thats why i suggest a small window of insta spawn "close enough struts" i always see ports touching that wont connect
  18. if they would remain attracted after one is already connected that would be delightful
  19. the modeled "antenna" is a http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitot_tube i belive. also, yeah some data packets are a bit much
  20. What are the best graphics mods? i dont want the kerbolar system rearranged; just stock, but prettier. better atmospheres, clouds, the like.
  21. not yet, cant wait for duna sno-cones though. maybe next update
  22. random failures are a guranteed not happening, but ambient weather is a possibility. clouds would be so nice
