DonLorenzo's Forum Campaign, Player Chat

I\'m putting in 2000 this turn.

[issarlk]

I gave 4000 this turn.

I\'m sure we have a good few turns before the campaign might switch over to 0.16, but I propose we launch something up there sooner rather than later. The new parts scale/balance will probably make it harder to hoist up 40+ mass at time, what with the powerful engines we have access to now.

Of course it might be easier, we won\'t know until it gets here (but I have a feeling it\'ll be harder).

[DonLorenzo]

Don\'t worry about .16. when it gets here, we\'ll continue in .15 for a bit until i can figure out a good way to transition. Hey it might even be a tech level $50000 to get .16 haha

[Awaras]

OK, I can launch 21 fuel tanks (52.5 units of mass) for $87,200 (48695 after salvage). That makes it 927$ per unit of mass after salvage.

I have tried to minimize my expenses in my regular mission so I have more money for the launch. After taking away the cost of my regular mission, tech purchasing and the challenge entry fee I will have $53471 left, which means that I would need at least $33729 from the community pool to perform my launch.

That sounds good. We should eventually start sending stuff there so why not begin now.

[Bellaby]

by all means, go for it. I\'ll let Don deal with handling the prices. I have posted in the main thread but I have been having internet troubles but consider this official approval! Lets get stuff up there!

[Awaras]

I have asked Don to grant me the funds I need to fly our first delivery mission. Fingers crossed for the launch to be a success.

Good luck! Could you post a (non-spoileriffic) shot of the junk in orbit so we can be wowed by the first piece in space?

(PS: finally finished my turn and I\'m adding 4000 more to turn twelve to get ready for the next launch.)

Will post a picture when (IF) Don tells me the delivery was successful. Don\'t want to jinx it!

[DonLorenzo]

I\'ll see about televising the launch
