OscarWilde Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 So I was coming back from a successful mun trip and upon separating my last stage (so only the Pod and Heat shield were left) I nearly had a heart attack when I saw that I had no parachutes!1000 hrs of gameplay, countless successful missions and I forgot parachutes on my final stage!?!? NO WAY! A glance to the staging on the left shows my three parachutes are in fact there.. so now I'm confused.So I stage anyway and get ready for my impending doom. But lo and behold, at 500m, my craft slows to 7m/s!! So I zoom in to look at the craft and try to figure out what happened and got this beautiful site!!That landing though!

impwarhamer Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 do you have tweakscale or something? There so cute! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KatzOhki Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Maybe we can convince SQUAD to release tiny micro-chutes for tiny rovers or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OscarWilde Posted May 13, 2015 Author Share Posted May 13, 2015 Yeah, I do have tweakscale, i'm wondering if it's a glitch within tweakscale.. seems likely! But it definitely wasn't intentionally done!And yeah, Tiny rover chutes would be amazing, especially for Duna or something! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KatzOhki Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 I might have to check out Tweakscale because I think it would be fun to make "model" rockets in KSP. I'd love to have parts on the scale of the Seperatron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocketPilot573 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 What is this, a parachute for ants? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
problemecium Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Not a glitch. SQUAD added this around 0.24-ish when they enabled quicksaving in atmospheres. Popular opinion is that it's a sort of troll Easter egg. If it is a bug, they've intentionally left it ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NovaSilisko Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 It's just how the parachutes work. You can find a tiny chute model before they're even deployed, I believe. The model is scaled up upon deployment. In this case, it looks like it just didn't animate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
