xclusiv8 Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 First Mun landing in 0.16. =) Did it the russian way, sent one alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLAMS Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 So, I managed to get a kerbal into orbit 2200meters off the surface of the mun using his eva pack. So I did what any reasonable person would due, got drunk and mounted a rescue mission.I had a massive 5 Pod lander to rendezvous and pick the guy up, then change orbit and land half a kilo from my two other landers(couldn\'t get closer, lag issues).I did not however, take any screen shots until after I landed...Landerus Maximus with two other landers in the distance.Newdrin Kerbin in a spare pod.Jeb got wasted at the mun party.

Fendleton Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 I haven\'t been doing too well in 0.16. Got one lander down and back safely (apart from Bill exploding from improper jetpack use), and a second crashed with a single survivor.....My failures, however, have been rather fun. Rockets in 0.16 seem to fly apart far more easily, but they don\'t imediately cascade into a single explosion like 0.15 and prior.....Bill and Bob screaming just before a rather-less-successful abort on the 4th launch of this rocket design. I\'d tried EVAing Jeb on the pad to clear space for a Mun rescue.... He randomly exploded the second he went out. Then the others started screaming, the altimeter broke (again) and shortly after switching back and launching..... the ASAS failed to stop it careening out of control, and about half the first-stage struts vanished causing the 100% SRB first stage (24 of the big new motors) to break apart and smash into the second stage. Then the insane lag of the SRBs meant the normally 5-second abort sequence took 15 seconds. The pod crashed after about 12. For all it was a horrible glitchy mess thanks to my computer being terrible, it was pretty fun to watch.However, not all launch failures have ended like that, even with the truly VAST launchers.See? Here\'s Bill, Bob and Jeb. I actually got Bob to jump down. He was fine! Then he walked into a launch clamp and exploded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slackadacka Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Oh no! The crew of a test rocket has landed nearly two kilometers from the space center! It\'s dark outside!Luckily, the brave pilots of the Amospheric Crew Recovery AirPlane were on standby and are ready to roll.Captain Donsy fires up the main vertical engines and the aircraft strains into the sky!With standard flight engines engaged, the ACRAP is on the way!Following a short landing, the stranded crew look on as the ACRAP taxis near.After climbing aboard and laying down in the first-class passenger area, the formerly stranded crew await a near-vertical takeoff and safe return to KSC.Coming in for a safe landing.And the formerly stranded crew disembark, thankful for the capabilities of the ACRAP!

Vanamonde Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Warning: broken rocket parts become land mines! (Boom when you touch them.) Update: this is fun to do, but now I must advise against it. I don\'t know if it\'s related, but that flight is now buggy as hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrionAurora Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 This is the end result of a failed airplane test. I lost my edge wings and my plane lost control during flight. Eventually, I ran out of fuel and regained control with the other wings. I turned around and glided my way back to shore. I was cruising around ~40m/s and started at around 600m.Also, please DO NOT give me advice on how to make a good plane. I want to figure this out on my own. Thank you.

Redrumsalad Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 I made a Mun Explorer using the cart mod and the rest were stock parts. I got into the wrong orbit but it still intersected the Mun\'s so I turned on time warp and waited. I turned time warp up too high, unfortunately. I got into Mun orbit, Mun escape, flung out around Kerbin, and then got into a large orbit around Kerbin. Fortunately, it intersected Minmus\' orbit. So I refined the orbit a little bit and turned time warp on again. My Mun Explorer (ME1) piloted by the one and only Bill Kerman had turned into a Minmus Explorer, and he is now permanently stationed on Minmus.
