Jeb is on a vacation with his friends now. But KSC have a emergency mission! Jeb doesn't want to go back, so he calls his friends to help! Meanwhile, a group of assassins got a mission to kill Jeb! All you need is choose a side, and fight for your mission! Sides: Jeb's friends: Make sure that Jeb is alive and not going back to work! KSC: Make sure that Jeb is alive and bring him back to work! Assassins: Kill Jeb in all costs! CCC(Center for Chaos Containment): Stop this everyone from destroying the world! Examples: Poster 1: My side is Jeb's friends I take Jeb to the mun. Poster 2: My side is KSC I drive a rocket to catch Jeb. Poster 3: My side is assassins I throw a bomb to you. I'll start first: My side is Assassins I sniped Jeb.

=Van's KSC= Ever felt like the default KSC runway is way too short or narrow? Worry no more. Description This is a Kerbal Konstructs config aimed at expanding the stock KSC and making it way more spaceplane friendly. Whether you're struggling with taking off or landing, new launch sites added by this config aim to help you in your aeronautic endeavours. No more wingstrikes or runway overruns... hopefully. New launch sites A 5000 meter long, 145 meter wide runway. Heading: 90 degrees. A 4800 meter long, 70 meter wide runway. Heading: 90 degrees. Two 3250 meter long and 90 meter wide intersecting runways. 90 and 150 degrees headings. Two large helipads near the 5km runway. Each is approximately 110 meters in diameter. A small group of helipads in the middle of the space center. Two water spawn points located near a large pier north of the main center. 0 and 90 degrees headings. New statics A group of large dish arrays west of the KSC. Those look especially great during sunsets. A network of roads connecting all launch sites. Some roads might be a bit bumpy. Six landing pads for reusable rockets. A lot of buildings that, hopefully, will help to make the scenery a bit more lively. Which side are you on?

KSC Enhanced is a simple upgrade to the Kerbal Space Center! The Kerbal Space Center always felt barren and small, the KSC Extended mod is great but was too big for my liking, however I had no reason to remake/enhance the KSC. However, due to the sad news about KSP 2 I decided it would be a good idea to make a more enhanced KSC that felt somewhat like the KSC in KSP2 but wasn't an exact replica. This is where my mod/addition to the game KSC Enhanced comes into play. This mod adds a few structures, a new runway, and a few more launchpads. This mod was meant for Sandbox or Science mode, however still works with career mode, just looks odd (might change later). Additionally, the mod will get extensions when I feel like implementing them Features Include: - Two New Launchpads - An Extra Runway - Must Purchase Runways / Launchpads in Career Mode - Seemingly Occupied Look Requirements: - Kerbal Konstructs - Omega's Stockalike Structures - Tundra's Space Center - Module Manager Compatible Mods - Blackrack's Deferred Rendering - JNSQ - Research Bodies (This mod implements its own structure, KSC Enhanced works with it). Conflictions: - Other KSC Replacers/Additions - RSS (Real Solar System) {Unknown reason, can't fix right now} Bugs: - Bumpy roads/terrain (This is due to the positioning tool Kerbal Konstructs uses, its not 100% precise; however, do report large bumps or floating/clipping parts) - Secondary runway discoloration (This is only at the end of the runway. This is more noticeable in JNSQ and/or with Deferred Rendering. No known fix yet) Plans: - Improving Taxi-ways. Current taxi-ways are made with enlarged roads, looks kinda weird. - Decoration. (Trees, vehicles, etc). Installation: Space Dock - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Feel free to report issues! Suggestions/ideas are welcome! I will consider implementing them if provided. Modder's Note: Modding for me is a major hobby. I upload mods if I believe others would like said mods. I take in suggestions and work on the mods, but never have solid update dates/times. I typically update when I can and if there are issues I will inform the userbase. Otherwise, thanks for installing/supporting this mod. License: KSC Enhanced is provided under the MIT license.

Well, Hello Kerbalnouts! Now I have the RSS mod! but everything has a price... I cannot enter any KSC building. Mod List: RSSDateTime, TestFlight, Sigmadimension, RealSolarSystem, RSS-Textures, RSS-Textures2.0 (is like the normal textures, but with only a carpet saying "Plugindata" so i just keep it) 000_KSPBurst, AJE, FAR (Ferram Aerospace Research), ModularFlightIntegrator, ModularFuelTanks, ModuleManagerSource, Procedural Fairing/For Everything/Parts, RealAntennas RealChute, RealHeat, ROCapsule/Engines/HeatShields/lib/Tanks/Utils, RSSVE, Realism Overhaul, SolverEngines, RSS-Teaks, EngineGroupController. Thank you so much! Any help is welcome! Fly safe!

I've recently gotten interested in expanding the KSC with new buildings and a runway mod. KSC Extended can add this but is currently bugged for me, as it makes the textures of the buildings added pink. Could anyone recommend mods that add more buildings and runway stuff? Thanks. (KSC Extended issue. A friend told me that KSC Extended is broken, but I'm seeing reports of it working perfectly. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks.)

KSC Floodlights Mk2 (KSCFLT02) Yet another Floodlight/Lightning Arrester Tower for Kerbal Space Program & Kerbal Konstructs Originally created by forum user Divico. Updated for KSP v1.8.0+ by Stone Blue. Adds 3 Floodlight Towers to the KSC Launchpad. Requires Kerbal Konstructs MOD. Stone Blue's KSCFLT01 This Mod's KSCFLT02 Description Using the mesh file so generously supplied by Stone Blue, I have remixed yet another version of the lightning arrester / floodlight tower for the launch pad as KSC. Once installed alongside Kerbal Konstructs (and it's dependencies) it will create 3 towers around the launch pad with automatic dusk/dawn operation (originally added by Stone Blue). Each tower can also be manually toggled (with satisfying sound effects) by clicking on the tower it's self. Changes from previous versions It remains somewhat over-sized (my placements, like Stone Blue's, scales the towers to 0.7 of their original size), but I did make the following alterations: Resized / Re-meshed the lamp panel border. Added "struts" to support the lamp panel. Reduced range and altered power to provide a lower light level more in line with the lighting provided by the built in water tower spotlight (See NOTE below). Added sound effect (powered by built in KK functionality) Corrected delay in tower being "ready" to be clicked again after being clicked - tower can not be clicked again as soon as the light is fully on or off. Altered / Re-skinned to have a white/gray coloring and detailed extinguished lamps. Prototype Info In 2009, LC-39B saw the installation of three nearly 600' tall towers as part of a new "Lightning Protection System" at the historic launch pad. Previous uses for Apollo and the Space Shuttle did not have such comprehensive protection. These towers, meant to be a more attractive target for "Zeus", are by necessity significantly taller than the launch vehicles they protect. They are painted a light gray color from top to bottom and hold cables aloft to harmlessly redirect electrical discharges to the ground and away from launch vehicles. Further Reading @ NASA.gov https://www.nasa.gov/feature/lightning-towers-stand-tall-at-nasa-kennedy-s-launch-pad-39b NOTE: Set up was performed with [EVE](https://github.com/LGhassen/EnvironmentalVisualEnhancements/releases/), [Scatterer](https://github.com/LGhassen/Scatterer/releases), [Parallax](https://github.com/Gameslinx/Tessellation/releases), and [Waterfall](https://github.com/post-kerbin-mining-corporation/Waterfall/releases) MODs installed.

"Turning KSP into Orbiter since May 2020" So I'm posting this since some users thought it was really cool and wanted to play with it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download: https://github.com/Katniss218/KatnisssCapeCanaveral/releases/tag/1.2.2 (copy-paste everything into the game-data and replace existing files) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Da big list of disclaimers, info and trivia, etc: Requires Module Manager Requires Kerbal Konstructs for the LC39A/B launchpads. RSS-Textures (RSS) should be installed beforehand otherwise it will override the modified heightmap (and make visual glitches!). The mod (custom heightmap) ONLY compatible with the new textures (16bpp). RSS-Textures 18.2+ required! Seems that having KSCSwitcher makes the camera go underground (makes the screen black) - zoom out (scroll wheel) for a temporary "fix". This mod moves the KSC (and us_cape_canaveral in KSCSwitcher) and therefore might conflict with your other KK statics (I think it only affects ungrouped objects). Contains an 8k color & normal maps for the main mesh and 4k color & normal maps for LC39. Textures based off of Google satellite imagery (free for non-commercial use). Install Omega's Stockalike Structures (OSSNTR) to get a real VAB. This mod also contains Uranus rings (separate files, so if you don't want it, just delete it). Shuttle Runway comes with a collider, the rest of the cape does not. It's not 100% complete, and with me being me, it probably won't ever be, therefore it's a release already Cape mesh contains about ~19k manually placed vertices (37k + 2*24k triangles in total). I can't really verify compatibility with RP-0/RP-1 - LC39 should allow practically unlimited mass, size, etc, and cost $0, because balance! I don't know what I'm doing.

I think this might be the culprit are of two bugs , the first being when the KSC disappears, the second being when you save and reload a save around mid transfer to the mun and it spawns the entire KSC (yea like the thing Mat Lowne discovered) and the same thing happened to me.

Flight ui is displaying when first opening save after booting up the game. The opening menu is not visible.

Screenshots: It looks beautiful! And the music.. out of this world, very-very good soundtrack! The lighting and reflections are amazing. The jaggies, clouds and trees... they're beta. Would have liked to see how Kerbol reflects in the ocean. A few similar KSP1 images for comparison:

Recently I saw many people had a darker/dim kinda forest green grass near the ksc which look really natural. Example: https://imgur.com/a/D9zLVue (Credit to @Zorg) Does anyone know how to make it look like that? It looks amazing. Thanks!

Hi guys, I just installed RSS for the first time. The problem is that the KSC is lower than the ground. Here is a picture: https://imgur.com/a/NaG1ssw

KSC Extended Expanding your KSC for all your space program needs. continued here;

So I was just looking at the Changes for The Mun on the KSP Wiki and it says "Removed the KSC on the Mun (don't ask)" for v0.14.3 (https://wiki.kerbalspaceprogram.com/wiki/Mun#Changes). This means it must have been added in v0.14.2 which is also the version The Mun's terrain was overhauled and changed from looking like this: To This If you have any images or know anything else about the KSC on the Mun, please tell me. (https://wiki.kerbalspaceprogram.com/wiki/Version_history#v0.14.3)

So, I've been having a problem with some of the textures in KSC Extended (and it's dependencies I suppose). Namely, they've gone black. I've installed the latest versions of the listed dependencies on the 1.8.1 version of KSP with both DLC expansions. I'm unable to pin down the cause and I am also running my KSP in OpenGL, if that may be the problem. If someone can find a solution, that would be well appreciated!

Well, I'm currently trying to get more science in Kerbin. Lately I discovered that you can get "flying" situation under the KSC's mini-biomes (e.g. Kerbin's Launchpad, Kerbin's FlagPole, etc.). This was done by an accident: Moving toward the FlagPole at high speeds but low enough to not break any parts. And collecting science while doing so. However, any subsequent attempt to get to the "flying" situation (i.e. just don't touch the ground) would result me in taking the biome under it (i.e. Kerbin's Shores). I'm a Science hardcore, I'll go any lengths to extract science from a planet to the last bit. So please tell me if it's possible to get "flying" situation in the mini-biomes.

https://arstechnica.com/science/2020/10/space-force-considers-merging-cape-canaveral-with-kennedy-space-center/?comments=1 It appears that Space Force are considering a merger of Cape Canaveral Space Force Station with Kennedy Space Centre in order to more efficiently utilise the range resources.

As the title implies, your goal is to land on the roof of the KSC, however, this is not your every day land on the roof challenge: Tight engineering restrictions make this a true challenge, one for the can-do-all types. You have to be good not only at engineering an aircraft that fits the rules, but also have the hands required to put it where I ask you to, in the way I ask you to. You might post any attempt with any craft for fun, but competing runs must adhere to the following: Procedures & Rules: •To create a fair experience for everyone, mods are not allowed for competing runs, in any form, save for information mods like engineer. Parts, physics or skill affecting mods (such as airplane plus, FAR/NEAR or mechjeb's autopilot respectively) are definitely not allowed. Again, for clarification: NO MODS - Even if not doing so with malicious intent or even knowledge, you might be gaining advantages over all-stock entries. With the tight regulation margins of this challenge, that's something I can't allow. •Create an aircraft that meets the following criteria •Your aircraft, once built, has to take off from the default runway without any kind of assistance (towers for example), and land at the two helipads on the KSC rooftop. The flight and landing have to meet the following criteria: Lastly, to validate your entry, your aircraft must meet the following criteria after completely stopping: As you can see there's no score system, a successful landing with a craft that follows the rules is all you need. I'll probably make a badge or something to include in your signature. TL;DR - Short, precision landing competition for "standard" aircraft, except the runway is the two helipads on the roof of the VAB. Have fun. You can post entries that don't follow the rules as well, but of course they won't count. My attempt, includes F3 screen to show that nothing fell off after that little slide lol: https://streamable.com/7r7mm

Help! My rover cannot communicate with KSC. Two repeaters fly in orbit around Dune. The map shows that the rover is connected to the repeater, and the repeater is connected to the KSC. What's the matter?

Having been discussing this, and slowly fleshing out the idea further, I would like to suggest a set of level 4 upgrades for each of the KSC facilities should be available, as well as (as a reach-goal) some way to upgrade the alternative launch sites (the Desert Runway needs an upgrade to its length/width/surface, in particular). Why: - Gameplay progression and "reach" goals for longer-running campaigns by more advanced players (although, these should not be out of reach of any player, they should require even greater Funds cost than the lvl 3 upgrades). - Rule of Cool. Bigger and more impressive facilities are a worthwhile goal in themselves, if it doesn't harm immersion/fun. - Realism. Real space centers, like Kennedy Space, took DECADES to reach their current size/scale. - Mods. Some of the features these level 4 facilities would provide would make some of the harder mods- such as Real Solar System scale-up's, a bit more playable on Career without having to tweak the Difficulty settings yourself. What the upgrades do/ look like: - Lvl 4 Launchpad. Somewhat bigger than the level 3 pad. Located a bit (maybe 10-20 meters) further away from the other buildings for range-safety of colosssl rockets if this is possible- otherwise the default distances should be increased 10-20 m or more (they are too small for realism, and increasing the distances a bit would add more of a sense of scale/size to the space center...) Maybe also adds a big, bare concrete pad nearby that still counts as Launchpad biome (100% recovery) for SpaceX-style recovery missions (the lvl 3 pad is an INCREDIBLY small taget to aim for landing on, and most players, except the truly crazy-skilled ones, just aim for anywhere near the KSC grounds for landing launch stages as a result...) - Lvl 4 Runway. Wider and longer than the KSC runway (currently 2.5 km long, the KSC runway in real life is 4.5 km, and quite a lot wider than the KSC one in game as well. I suggest at least 3.5 km for the level 4 runway, preferably 4-5 km). Maybe a bit thicker surface, for realism of handling heavier planes on it (could also justify then making the lvl 4 runway being a bit harder to destroy than the lvl 3 one). Wider runways will allow players to safely launch wider planes. The runway separation from the SPH should also be increased a bit (at least 10-15 m) for landing approaches of ultra-wide planes, range-safety of massive planes full if rocket fuel, and so wings of huge planes don't collide with SPH if players decide to taxi around near the SPH a bit. - Lvl 4 VAB. Larger/taller inside than the lvl 3 VAB, so players can see more of their tallest rockets (and have less of planes overflow the VAB when they merge really long shuttles/flyback boosters built in SPH, before attachment) without re-rooting of parts and constant shifting of the rocket stack. Larger exterior dimensions too, for immersion/coolness. - Lvl 4 SPH. Longer/wider internal dimensions than the lvl 3 SPH, for even longer/wider planes (having really wide planes that you can't see the wingtips of in the SPH is *particularly* annoying). Larger external dimensions for immersion/awesomeness/impressiveness. - Lvl 4 Tracking Center. Provides higher-powered DSN (so players have a better way to increase this with more immersion/coolness than just pulling up the DSN slider under Difficulty settings. I won't argue the necessityof the DSN upgrade beyond saying it'a both more realistic, and less obnoxiousfor players than building their own more powerful ground-stations on Kerbin and an enormous relay network just to provide stronger comms to Jool, or mods that expand the # of planets beyond Jool) and larger/more impressive-looking satellite dishes for the building. Maybe give the Tracking Center a proper parking-lot too? - Lvl 4 Astronaut Complex. Should provide a discount to astronaut-hiring costs (maybec10-20% off the base cost. 30%? 40%?) By the late-game, when you have a large crew roster, it becomes PROHIBITIVELY expensive to hire more Kerbalnauts (and forces players to just spam rescue-contracts to get more) or replace any lost crew members (w/o respawn). An option to refresh the current list of available hires, for a cost in Funds, for the lvl 4 complex (if you're going to spend a fortune on hiring, maybe you want a Pilot with better Courage, or a low Stupidity scientist? Helps with immersion/fun). - Lvl 4 Science Center. Purely a handout to modders. Lvl 3 center could be given a tech node cost limit beyond anything in the stock tree- allowing modders to lock parts behind a lvl 4 science center (which would remove all limits) for Career Mode balance and realism for futuristic parts taking even longer to obtain... Could possibly be disabled by default (but re-enabled under difficulty options, with a tooltip "just for looks in the stock gsme") if would annoy stock players. Could be larger/ more impressive than the lvl 4 center, so even some Stock players might use it, for coolness. Would of course also be default level in Sandbox/Science modes (so most players would still benefit from the cool model). - Lvl 4 Admin Building. Should come with a moderate (20-30%?) discount to buy-in costs for all strategies, or *maybe* add a few new, more powerful strategies (or allow existing strategiesto be set to 100%- with lvl 3 only going to 80%, and the strategies all being buffed a bit). Would make the game a bit easier if players bought it- but at VERY low Return On Investment (as the upgrade would be very expensive). Besides, most players don't use the Admin building much. This might give players a *bit* more motive to do so. Could also cone with a larger/cooler building model, maybe also a bigger parking lot? (To represent the increased staffing demands of a more mature apace program, and all the complex clerical work that makes modern space programs possible...) These are just ideas for what each of the lvl 4 upgrades could do- amd I'm sure other players could come up with even better ideas! This is a great game, and little improvements like this (or in the case of players who struggle with launching/landing enormous rockets on the puny lvl 3 pad/runway, BIG improvements...) would make the game even better. I don't expect everyone will agree with me on thos, or all the details, but I would like people not to be closed-mindef about this, or respond "there's a mod for that!". Thank you all for reading this! I think some lvl 4 upgrades, as part of the base game, would be a nice way to show appreciation for the KSP community- and by showing players the game is continuing to grow/evolve in a VERY noticeable way to any playthrough, would keep them involved- and more likely to consider buying KSP 2 and any future expansions for KSP as well...
