Hey everybody, this is my first post here in the forum, but I'm not that new to KSP (2000hrs+). In the last time I've been working on something I considered worth sharing here. I set out to write code with Kos to do a automated Starship Booster landing and then things got a little out of hand. Well, now I have code that can do a Booster Landing and a Starship Reentry+Landing. Also the ship can be catched by a small catcher and is restacked and refueld on top of the Booster. It was also important to me that the Starship is really controlled by the flaps and not just with RCS and reactionwheels. For the end of this project I tried to record a view videos (with my limited editing and recording skills) of the whole system (I attached the links below). Sorry if the videos are a little laggy sometimes, my PC was dying managing that part count with the cloud mod in 4K. Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions for this craft or if you want to know more about it. Cheers! PS: I will upload the stock craft file after I find out where to do that Mods: Control: KOs Mechjeb (for parts of the ascent) Trajectories Visuals: The amazing cloud mod from Blackrack Camera tools Hulcam Parallax Stock Waterfall Effects Parts: Kerbal Reusability Expansion (used for the gridfins. It would be possible to use airbrakes or stock grid fins to make the craft fully stock, but that would not look as good ;))

I got inspired to start running a fully reusable space program... Problem is, I can't really do it without either mods or SSTO's. Here's the thing: I got an aerodynamic or lifting body spaceplane that works great at everything but getting to orbit and back. The only thing I can do is stick it onto a booster. But then I have to throw away the booster. And I don't want to. So... do you know of any good mods that will automatically guide a booster down to land on parachutes? Or can I already do that stock with the KAL-1000 controller? -
Hi guys, I remember ages ago there was a mod that allowed recovered stages to be reflown as spacecraft rather than just recover the funds and the build a new one. I have searched and searched and I cannot find it anywhere. Ideally I would be recovering my shuttle and reflying it rather than paying for a new shuttle everytime.... Also my Falcon 9 analogue. I would love to refly landed booster stages. Could someone point me in the right direction? On a seperate note - Is there a mod that logs the flight once it hace completed? As in - type of craft flown - duration orbit details. And a place for notes so that you can log what happened on the mission? Then I can have an archive of my launches? Thanks in advance! C
