ok so it turns out i need to update them

so the modpack is ready?

[Lewie]

I have the Jool science bomb done, along with other modules.

 

[s_gamer101]

I‘ll probably make a second module too. (The first of my modules will be the fuel storage)

Is someone busy with it right now? Because I have time now.

Do you want a place to dock it?

No, it's only half of a ship, the other half actually docks.

[catloaf]

I'm probably going to do a complete redesign though, because my currant design is quite inneficient. I will probably switch to a 1 vector 2 terrier design that is more similar to my original design, because the weight of using multiple nervs and needing extra lf only tanks outweighs the extra isp, especially since its Jool system only. And I will build a separate larger nervs craft for refueling the station via pol, or making excursions to Dres and Eeloo. Since I will probably use a klaw instead of landing legs I may even pick up a dresteriod and bring it back by mining for fuel on it in between burns maybe we could even take the observatory to Dres and use the sentinel to find a good asteriod.

2 of my 3 modules include a sentinel (the lab and the observatory)

Maybe you could build a nuke shop to transport the observatory.

[minerbat]

Nuke SHOP? Are we buying nukes lol? I think you mean nuke SHIP? If I am allowed to I could do it but I already have 3 modules so only if I get permission for adding a fourth one I can add a transporter ship.

[s_gamer101]

What do you think, does this look like an orbital greenhouse/hydroponics? It seems like those reaction wheels are the only stock parts that are actually green (at least at the top and at the bottom of the part). However, I'm not the first player who built "hydroponics" using these reaction wheels. 

Maybe it would look better if I'd replace the fuel tanks in the service bay with science containers.

 

[s_gamer101]

@minerbat As far as I know, the core module is still in LKO, so you‘ll probably have to wait with your launches.

@eee Do you still have the save file?

[eee]

Yes.

You could use mystery goo. Or, if it's okay to exceed 20 parts use mystery goo and other science equipment. If it's suppose to look like water tanks you could try clipping mite srb's into the service bay or use oscar-b tanks  (Don't worry about the kerbals in the hitchhiker, kerbals like snacking on srb propellants. They even have a candy called gem-63xl!)

I like it. It is probably the best you can do in stock KSP. I actually think the reflective fuel tanks. It would make sense if you are trying to keep something in there cool that they would be reflective.

The Mun and Minmus are setting over the second Lunex rocket...

 

Wait... I just realized this is the wrong forum page... oops

Sorry, nuke ship. It's probably unnecessary though, since I could build the functionality into my own massive ship, provided that the com is lined up with the docking port on the observatory.

[minerbat]

If you need this information: the used docking port is a regular sized one. Also, if you want to dock it to a ship you would need to dock the ship to the observatory because it does not have any control, rcs, or propulsion.

Who currently has the save file?

Anyway, cool design!

[s_gamer101]

What do you think about creating a badge that everyone who built something for this collaborative space station project could add to his signature?

[Space Nerd]

Great!

[s_gamer101]

But we d‘still need someone who creates the badge. I don‘t really know how to create a good badge to be honest.

I can create the badge with a photo of the finished station, if that sounds good to y'all.

Ok....it’s been a while since I’ve posted here. 

How far has the station come along?

@eee is working on the core module and some other players already built their modules but haven‘t launched them yet.

I am getting ready to make it because I keEP ON LOSING THE SAVE
