Ok, so maaaaaybe I might be working on something again.

[MalfunctionM1Ke]

Why would I have expectations?

Since the restrictions on clipping were removed and the introduction of the VAB/SPH move/align tools in 0.9, its now easy to make silly spacecraft that can do 'anything'. The challenge is now to do 'anything' in a realistic looking/behaving way, without clipping a bunch of bits together.

So, to expand on my previous comment: You could clip a hundred or a thousand massless engines together and fly to the Mun in 1 minute, but so what?

Lean back and enjoy

I need my 2nd coffee of the morning before my enthusiasm level reaches its usual peak of "Meh".

Let me try to explain it this way.

[djnattyd]

So, you clipped a bunch of engines together. So what?

Is it just me or are the newer forum members quite rude?

Anyway, to answer your question. Whackjob tends to create the largest, most ridiculous lag-inducing craft possible in KSP. They're normally that insanely large that Unity just says "NOPE" and breaks.

Oh. Umm.

[Johno]

Wooohooooo!

The Whack is BACK!

[marach]

Oh. Umm.

Also consider whack made a world cup challenge so large that most teams failed to even complete the first step of construction let alone the actual challenge

[Daze]

Amazing! Nice to see you on KSP again Whackjob!

@Foxster: Doing the "prig" guy doesn't make you look cool

[Flixxbeatz]

just whackjob being whackjob

[Gargamel]

Heeeeee's baaaacccck!

@Foxster: Doing the "prig" guy doesn't make you look cool

I'm tired, dehydrated, have a headache and feel nauseas (all self-inflicted). But I've just had more coffee and half a bagel. My status can be upgraded from "Prig" to "Can now imagine a time when I will once again be capable of participation in civilised society".

[Gargamel]

Someone with better photoshop skills than I needs to make a WhackTrain poster..... Like the hypetrain, just it's ab.....

You know what.... that sounds just wrong.........

[Scotius]

T-that mega stack of engines...H-how it doesn't overheat and explode like a supernowa? How? HOW? *twitch* *twitch*It should. It should. ItshouldshouldItshould:confused:

Welcome back Whackjob

[dryer_lint]

My current theory is that Whackjob is a supercomputer technician. When nobody's looking, he plays KSP on it.

Well, he shows that his PC can allow him to do it.

How about yours?

Some people joke that their creations will kill their computer.

Whackjob did actually kill his computer.

Can't wait to see what comes of this. I thought for a moment I was dreaming!

[Jovus]

I don't know how this normally works, since you've been on hiatus since before I bought the game, but: Whackjob, will you be offering a craft file of your creation so those of us who are masochistic can try it ourselves?

I'm curious to see what could actually push my new box.

[KerrMü]

Hey man. glad to see you back in business.

I really liked that manley mini-series and am thinking of trying it by myself.

Could be a fun new challenge since I've got no experience with BIIIG rockets at all. So I would be pleased to make it under maybe 70 minutes.

Good luck pal

yes!!

[SkyRender]

I knew Scott Manley trying to pull a Whackjob would bring the real deal back. This should be good.

[RAINCRAFTER]

Oh yes.

[Mister Kerman]

Does Manley post on this forum?

[CG_Kerbin]

You can do it we have the techonolgy

All is forgiven, brother. No hard feelings. Hope you feel better!

Sure thing!

Also, thank you for the boisterous welcome back, everyone.

Well, I suppose if anyone can make Manley Girley, you can do it. *Munches popcorn* I assume you're shooting for Plaid Speed?
