Serial Space Station: Add your own module! (Closed - check out the new Community Space Station thread instead!)

[max_creative]

After the adapter I think the station needs a xenon module so I will also add that. And the station is getting a little messy, a reorganization mission to move around some modules might be nice soon.

[Spudrotuskutarsu]

Alright the new science and habitation module has been docked! (i'll upload a video of the flight soon)

Now you can enjoy the view of the developing space station from comfort of the Cupola pointed towards the station

And a updated picture of the station

Looking good!  Updated the OP.  Cleared for next launch

I have something in mind... CTV and adapter cancelled until they are not. Dibs on large dock at the end of your module! I have a new tug in progress right now and I'm going to use that with my 7 Kerbal CTV (this is a different one than the other)

[Dfthu]

K I shall launch now!

EDIT: You guys can launch now, its getting to late. I will dock tomorrow.

Ok. Finally the Kerbals will be able to microwave there snacks without having to turn off the lights and tv!

[Spudrotuskutarsu]

I got the video of my launch edited and uploaded

I had hoped that there would be a decent view from the seats in the passenger module that I added a few days ago, but unfortunately I failed to notice that I'd constructed my section for the station with the seats pointed backwards, so looking away from the station.

Ah well.

[max_creative]

At 6:30 (?) today pacific time I will try to launch. So yeah. Try to launch. And I can maybe launch some more Kerbals to the station quickly to. 

Edit: and I think I will drag a class A or another B to the station sometime soon.

Okay, I have a video of my test of the Mass Relay

@max_creative I think I added one total large docking port, but took away one regular port. I sent up two modules, KAL 9000's lab from ages ago and my Habitation module.

Also, in general, could people use the mass relay on debris (if you can)? It would be interesting to watch.

Also, @Spudrotuskutarsu Make sure you took the save in my post and not the one in the first post. The first post is probably outdated by now.

Nice video. Consider yourself one subscriber more

Do you guys want a junior docking port? I can add it on my next launch.

You said your bringing up solar panels right? I say yes so we could dock a little RCS tug. But your choice.

Yea I will still bring up solar panels but one end will have a Jr. docking port.

Ok. If you don't use it I can design a RCS tug today.

@Spudrotuskutarsu Love the vid! Great job! Wish we had more of them )

[KAL 9000]

Where is my lab docked? I would like it moved so it's docked on its Clamp-O-Tron Sr., if it's not already. I plan for the normal Clamp-O-Tron to be used by KAS/KIS shuttles. I am also working on my own shuttle and a tug to move modules around.

Your lab is docked to the fuel/crew pod thingy that's clawed to the asteroid. You can take a look at the photo.

[HoloYolo]

Jetski, it's out. Will you upgrade today?

[max_creative]

1.1 WHOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

With 1.1 maybe increase the part limit? Maybe? 

Edit: theoretical question, how bad would it be if I hit the station with a 66.9 ton module? Theoretically?

I've readied a module consisting of 2 Hitch Hikers, 2 Jr. Docking Ports and a Gigantor Solar Arry to keep it online. Wanna dock on the long beam reaching out into space.

 

Any missions still in progress or someone waiting for permission to dock his own module before me? If not, someone pls supply the latest download link so I can plan my flight.

[max_creative]

Well, the limit is 5 parts plus two docking ports. And the port type at the end of the truss is standard, not small, but I believe no one is launching now so I think your ok.

[DualDesertEagle]

So the docking ports are excluded from the 5 parts? Great! Gonna build a new module while recording then.

 

Aight then, I'm starting right now and I hope I'll get it done within the next 3 hours.

 

One more thing: I'd like to put a custom flag on my module. Would that cause problems for the following players?

No, 5 parts and 2 ports are the max. Infinite ports aren't allowed. And claws count as ports.

[DualDesertEagle]

What about the custom flag? A problem for following Players or not a problem?

[Jetski]

I'm going to be busy running a career on my new 1.1 build.  If anyone is up for it feel free to port the latest savegame over to 1.1 and test it.  If all works, might boost the part limit to 8 + 2 docking ports.
