G'day from a newbie

[Dan61]

Have been playing for two weeks now. Purchased v0.16 and have been having a ball.

Finally managed to build a rocket and lander from stock parts that has taken me to Mun and home safely and reliably over multiple missions. Last mission was just over 15 hours return with a short EVA. Even managed a mission to Minmas with EVA and return, but that one took a very long time

I have some screenshots, but I'm a forum gumbie - can I just drag'n'drop a picture into a post? I notice the attachment icon asks for a URL - how does that work? (dumb iMac user).

I'm having a lot more trouble getting a spaceplane into orbit though. All my booster arrangements have been spectacular failures so far!

Have seen some of the very cool add-ons and would like to play, but have no idea how to get them I'm sure the info is here somewhere ...

Anyway, hoping to learn lots here while having a great time with this program!

Cheers,

Dan.

Personally, i use imgur for pics, mostly because it's very simple.

Just go to http://imgur.com/ and drag&drop an image on their page. (if you want to organize your pics you should sign up)

Hi Dan number 61, welcome to the community

Space planes are hard, at least for me, I either put my plane on top of the launch stack, or I make something that can launch from the runway like a regular plane, Space Shuttle style craft seem to be really hard to make correctly.

As for the add-ons though, look in this board and the plugin powered add-on releases sub board, you'll find loads of things to try
