Building the International Space Station

[jasonlewis]

Hi all!

I'd like to share something I've been working on. I decided it'd be cool to recreate the International Space Station in KSP, something that's been done by many folk, except I wanted to build and launch each module.

Now, I tried to stay true to how they built the actual ISS, however, I didn't like the idea of sending 30 Shuttle missions. So, this is a simplified ISS, and it uses modded parts. I also sent each part as a Shuttle payload, even if the payload was sent on a Proton rocket.

It also started getting a bit taxing on the old computer so later modules I had to release from the Shuttle and fly them from ~3km away to stay outside of that 2.5km load zone. Good times.

Anyhow, enjoy the video! I'm hoping I can make more videos that have more of a "cinematic" feel to them. Let me know what you all think.
