Your plane designs are quite interesting.  I'll have to steal some of these ideas

SRAS Beginnings 5: Rendezvous

If you like wings, you should get into SSTOs. After the awful inefficiency of your first nuclear-powered monstrosity, they get easier every time.

Working on it. Right now I'm having a hard time getting enough oomph "because that's a technical term" to get into orbit, and I thought it would be hilarious to have Ty strapped to an ICBM.

SRAS Beginnings 6: Fly-by

[Geschosskopf]

I like how you always re-enter nose-first

Coyote (or Old Man Coyote) is often regarded as the Trickster god.  I'm wondering if that will become a thing here.....

I'm sure that Kaioti was not, in anyway based on any type of trickster God or mysterious stowaways.

I like the psychedelic Coyote god at Gunnerkrigg Court.

ALSO, you got MH! Does that mean you're getting BG too?

@fulgur Yes. Got BG also.

SRAS Beginnings 7: Mun Rocks

[Geschosskopf]

I approve of over-built landers.  Never know when they'll come in useful

SRAS Beginnings 8: Rescue Drone I

OMG the speeling errors...

[Geschosskopf]

You have the most polite probes/drones.  The others I've seen are so foul-mouthed that everything they say is BEEPed out

That's a nice Dreamchaser thingy.  Last time I played KSP, back in 1.3, I called such things "Dreamcrushers" because the aero model back then made them impossible without tail fins that were stupidly large and stupidly numerous.  Same with fairings.  Any fairing required a rocket with lots of tailfeathers.  But I'm discovering in 1.7 that this is no longer the case

@Geschosskopf I want passive aggressive probes. This might leed up to a Tech-Mind.

Ooh! Is that kOS or are you leading me up to bitter, bitter disappointment?

Answer: On second reading... it was the latter.

Kerbal Operating System, you can write programs for completely hands-off launches and just watch them (with your hand over the abort button, mind you)

[demon_313]

@Kerballing (Got Dunked On) oh. Thanks.

As opposed to me, who still can't program the last 50m of descent correctly and lives scattered in pieces OVER the surface of Minmus.

RIP Fulgur.

Cause of death: Impact with a minty immovable object due to a technical glitch.

You will be sorely missed. And the band plays.

I might have to look into this kOS...
