The Dunatian Doer


Recommended Posts

Story:

  • You have landed on Duna with a craft (how to make it near the bottom)
  • You don't have enough fuel in the lander to get back into orbit.

Goal:

  • Simple: Get into orbit.                                                                  10pt
  • Hard: Get into orbit & dock with a craft already in orbit.              15pt
  • Hardcore: Get back to Kerbin & land.                                          30pt
  • Brutal: Land on top of VAB without getting into Kerbin orbit.      100pt

Craft:

  • 1 command seat
  • 1 small fuel tank (.65m)
  • 4 KIS small containers
  • 1 Mk.16 parachute (radial is fine)

Getting back:

  • You need to build a craft on Duna using KIS.
  • Fill the 4 containers with anything you want.

Rules:

  • Hyperedit can be used to get the ship into Duna orbit.
  • No other uses of Hyperedit.
  • In f12 menu, only clipping is allowed. 
  • Screenshots needed:
    • Craft in VAB.
    • Can hyperedit to Duna orbit, so next is Duna orbit. If Hyperedit isn't used, show screenshots of trajectory to Duna.
    • Landed on Duna.
    • Screenshot with all 4 KIS containers' inventories shown.
    • Completed craft.
    • Planted flag. (optional)
    • Orbiting Duna with craft.
    • Docking. (optional)
    • In map mode, showing trajectory to Kerbin. (optional)
    • Showing of whether you were in orbit before landing on Kerbin. (optional)
    • Screenshot of landed vessel. (optional)
  • Mods required:
    • KIS
  • Mods allowed:
    • Any part mod, as long as you don't use it without asking first.
  • Not allowed:
    • Physics-altering mods are NOT allowed, except BDarmory because it doesn't really do anything except extend load range.

Extra points:

  • Plant a flag on Duna: 5pt.
  • Get back to Kerbin without docking: 10pt.
  • Land in KSC after getting into orbit: 5pt.
  • Craft to escape Duna is less than 10 parts: 5pt.
  • Not using Hyperedit at all: 20pt.
  • Landing on Kerbin without orbiting first: 5pt.

Thank you for reading!

Sounds like a fun challenge, the upper stage to this was my emergency duna escape orbiter.

I guess I'll have to see if I can do the same with kis when I get home. 

Good idea, all things except parts listed have to be stored in the KIS containers.

I understand, I was pointing out I attempted a minimum escape system using stock parts,  your saying I can use mod parts as long as they fit in a kis container, so I'll be interested in what I can do with this. Yesterday didn't happen but I hope tonight!
