  1. I know about KAC. Still, coding something like this should take no more than two days including debugging and would be pretty useful hence the suggestion. Also a feautre could be added that could allow you to skip to your next reminder instantaneously (something like MJ does).
  2. Just a simple thing, really. It would allow us to set a time and then show a pop-up at that time with a message we wrote and set timewarp to 1x. I'm building a space station and a launch window comes up every few hundred days and with this I wouldn't have to worry about when. I know I could just timewarp but doing something else in between those launch windows is not only better for RP but the variety keeps the game more interesting. Should be pretty easy to implement too.
  3. Definitely, I also thought of that. I park my old planes and spaceplanes on the island airport to make it sort of a museum already
  4. When did I say I would like something like that to happen? I wouldn't, but that still doesn't change the fact that it'd be the best solution in case of overpopulation. a) Leave miliards of people to starve and live in horrible conditions, encumbering the society and halting progress Distribute resources so as to improve their lives => the situation will get even worse and we all eventually die out c) In the best case a natural disaster or if one didn't come then biological weapons inducing infertility, hopefully no wars, they drain resouces fast (also help research but it's not worth it) Just now Earth still has some reserves, e.g. agriculture in Africa could be improved to produce more food but it won't last forever. There are seven times more people than 200 years ago, I don't even want to think about how many people there'll be in another 200 years if something doesn't change. Or technology will advance so much that those problems won't matter anymore which is what I hope for. Back to the point, saying something is right or beneficial doesn't mean I want to do it so why should I volunteer anywhere? That's a stupid pseudohumanitarian comment.
  5. It isn't money, paper or bits on bank accounts aren't stopping us from going into space, it's the curren level of technology. Currently resources are better spent on research, since research makes everything more effecient. We could either spend everything we have to travel to another star or spend 1/100 of that on researching a better way and then let's say 1/3 of the original resources to do the same (probably even arriving sooner). In other words, going further into space right now is just waste of resources.
  6. It's cheaper (wasting less precious natural resources humankind needs for research of new technologies) to just kill off some people. Not a reason.
  7. No, it isn't valid. You can't be 100% sure of anything. As I'm typing now, I don't even know whether you are still alive. It's just extremely probable.
  8. Building an SSTO hoping it would reach a stable orbit and ending up with so much fuel I ended up landing on Mun and back at Kerbin. Krakening to lightspeed was also fun.
  9. True. For example squirrels. They're also in the universe, are they not? If you actually meant on another body then no, it might near certainty but will never be certain. Even if we found evidence, it could suddenly become extinct so even with undeniable evidence it isn't 100%.
  10. I've done 2222m/s with my basic jet design, but I think I'll be able to do better if I modify it for top speed. On top of that, this was done with full fuel. Details: Vessel: Thunder Manned Stock + MJ
  11. I drove about 50km to a mun arch and back. I used a reversible rover that's mostly safe to drive even in low gravity at about 30 m/s and used 2-3x physical warp. It still took ages, especially since I had to make regular quicksave stops usually after about 5km and reload from time to time.
  12. That's maybe worthy of its own challenge Never tried it but it should be possible to get to orbit using only LV-N provided you have enough lift.
  13. "Why is that planet so blue?" - Jeb witnessing Doppker effect
  14. That could also work. The thing is, it would be laughably easy to modify this and adding the equal distribution system would be quite easy too. I know there are mods for this but stock is always better as its compatibility is guaranteed.
  15. It's annoying to wait a minute before 10 units of monopropellant transfer to some of the pods while the transfer rate for the large tanks is much higher. Maybe it makes sense as smaller tanks have probably smaller intakes but I thought than fun > realism in KSP. On top of that, I don't think it serves any prupose as trying to equally distribute fuel by hand is a nearly impossible task. The whole fuel transfer system should undergo a change allowing for balancing fuel between tanks as soon as possible, as this is, unlike the career mode, a core feature of the game.
  16. I've just begun work on my station in solar orbit between Kerbin and Duna. It has everything it needs for now, but I plan to expand it even further.
  17. But it also changes YOUR velocity. To be hit by the same cloud of debris after you both change your velocities? I don't think so. Also nobody would consider sending satelites up into those orbits so that such situation could arise. Everyone playing KSP knows that for two things in space to collide, you have to make a serious effort. The chances are basically zero it will happen randomly and even less it will be so perfectly synchronised. Not saying that it's totally impossible, just that it hindered my enjoyment of the movie.
  18. Yes, but the collisions would change their velocities, wouldn't they?
  19. Or even better yet, a part that would act as a camera. It could be toggled on/off and if turned on it would add another view from its perspective. Could be sticked inside a docking port to fulfill the docking needs but also so much more.
  20. The two RCS tanks look like an overkill but otherwise good job. Docking my first spaceplane was one of the best experiences I had in KSP.
  21. Congratulations and thanks for your contribution. The time was a mistake on my part, corrected. Below 5 mins should be ok.
  22. Don't want to sound like a dick but just google "delta v map ksp".
  23. Probably getting a mobile base with a return module to Eeloo. It included all science experiments, science lab, crew quarters and was able to safely travel at speeds over 30 m/s.
