Van Disaster Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Sorry, but I don't agree with you. I think it more important to look at the journey than at the vehicle.To some extent - but I think doing it without the fallback of being able to pop out a new vehicle if you break the current one is also part of it.

You may use replacement vehicles.I think the rules are only meant to preclude significant redesigns, not like-for-like replacements. That said, I did mine without replacements and dealt with the bits that fell off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Van Disaster Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Yeah - the original spirit of it was about battling on with what you had, and my Kerbin vehicle took much work before I was confident it'd stay in one piece. That said, my munar jaunt is more like the evolution of an organism than a bunch of Kerbals trundling around a planet.It's got stuck, anyway the south pole of Mun is a harsh place to navigate.

SpaceplaneAddict Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Can I use the F3 menu if it only shows 0 distance at start? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claw Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Can I use the F3 menu if it only shows 0 distance at start?I'm not sure what you're asking here, but it might also be important to note that the F3 log resets itself whenever you load the flight scene. Which means if you quicksave/quickload, or leave the vessel for any reason, it'll reset. Which is unfortunately, because it would be nice to know the cumulative distance traveled for a vessel.Cheers,~Claw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCardinal Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 I've just completed the equatorial Minmus circumnavigation; the first leg of the double Minmus circumnavigation. On the next leg i will circumnavigate Minmus over the poles.Mission report Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Van Disaster Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Just screenshot F3 at the end of every leg. Scansat BTDT will mark the entire journey on the minimap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claw Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 I am dumb.Not at all. I just wasn't sure if I understood what you were really asking. F3 logs/screenshots aren't required by the rules. The rules just state that there needs to be some proof of the adventure.You may do as I did and mark your path via flags. Or you may provide ample proof via screen shots.F3 would do that, but isn't strictly required. Not sure if that's what you're asking about.Cheers,~Claw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HafCoJoe Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 One brief question which I still have after reading the first page... what's the technical difference between a kerbin land circumnavigation and a boat circumnavigation? Is it a land circumnavigation when you stay on land as much as possible and a boat circumnavigation when staying on water as much as possible?

damerell Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 I'm halfway Kerbin! Here's my topic.http://imgur.com/a/jUJPKCrikey, that's a bit zippy compared to most vehicles. How roll-resistant is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azimech Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 On Kerbin I can corner up to 35m/s, then it has a tendency to start lifting it's wheels but easy to correct. On a completely flat surface that is. A lot of work has gone into the suspension, it's an enlarged phase III IFV chassis. It can drive at full speed with multiple wheels on one side broken, without problems.http://i.imgur.com/S9eRV9N.gifv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceplaneAddict Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Getting to Tylo is hard, can I hyper edit my rover into orbit around the body I wish to circumnavigate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fengist Posted October 3, 2015 Author Share Posted October 3, 2015 (edited) Aw crap. I've been stickied. Now I'll have to update this post. I'll be around later today take care of that. Thanks Sal. Glad that everyone is enjoying it. Edited October 3, 2015 by Fengist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceplaneAddict Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 So I'm guessing no hyper edit to the object you'd circumnavigate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fengist Posted October 3, 2015 Author Share Posted October 3, 2015 So I'm guessing no hyper edit to the object you'd circumnavigate?You guessed correctly.- - - Updated - - -One brief question which I still have after reading the first page... what's the technical difference between a kerbin land circumnavigation and a boat circumnavigation? Is it a land circumnavigation when you stay on land as much as possible and a boat circumnavigation when staying on water as much as possible?Check this linkBut, that only applies to Master Mariner. If you want the Kerbin badge, ground or water, you have to cross that land bridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigelvn Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 (edited) Well, now this has been stickied I should circumnavigate a body to honor it ;P Probably doing a Kerbin water circumnavigation, using your mod. Perhaps even my yacht with minor tweaks. Have to think about a solution for that land bridge though...EDIT: Fengist, am I allowed to put a buggy on the yacht, and then when I have arrived at the land bridge use it to cross the land? I do leave the yacht at that point, this is why I ask the questionEDIT EDIT: I reread the text and apperently I don't need to cross the part for master mariner, I'll do that instead XD Edited October 4, 2015 by nigelvn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCardinal Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 (edited) I've just completed the circumnavigation of Minmus along the equator followed by the cirumnavigation of Minmus over the poles. I'll only post the BTDT map at the end here, other pictures will be in the mission thread.I've journied along the equator and later along the 0 and 180 degree meridian. (And i've followed them as best as i could as you can see on the map).I did not use Hyperedit, Mechjeb, Kerbaljointreënforcement. Neither did i use timewarp. Minmus will never be the same again for me. Edited October 4, 2015 by TheCardinal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azimech Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Modified my ALRM1 to the LRM1, non amphibious long range miner, specially made for all other planets than Eve, Kerbin and Laythe.
