cocomoe1002 Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Today, a tragedy happened far far from where Kerbin Stands. Over 1129 days ago on the plat from of KSC. The Ship (Memorization I) took of to head where no other Kerbal Has gone before. The Jool System. Over 64 Million Miles from Kerbol, it took these 3 brave Kerbals 3 years and 1/4 to get to the Jool System. They achieved orbit around Jool and took many screenshots, but unfortunaly when i tryed to quit KSP today the game crashed and it never saved anything. They achieved a 300,000 by 300,000 orbit around Jool then headed off for a intersection of Laythe. They had a 134,000 periapsis around laythe and decided that they wanted to land on Laythe. I packed enough parachutes for a landing on Laythe and a return parachute to Kerbin too. They hit the atmoshpere around 2000 meters a second, while areo braking in the atmoshpere the parachutes deployed and all the Kerbals were happy because they went so far and so long to land on this moon. 20 meters from a island on Laythe something goes wrong. One of the landing legs will not deploy and when i click it to deploy it wont deploy. If this is a glitch plz someone say so. I hit the ground around 9-7 meters a second. And the ship tips over! and the command module separates form the fuel tank RCS tank, etc.......Everyone at KSC was waiting for the news......... and they got it.Here is the (made up conversation between Jeb and KSC.)Jeb: Um..... KSC do you read me, over?KSC: We read you loud and clear Memorization I, over.Jeb: it seems there has been a malfunction..... um......KSC: did you land? Over.Jeb: Yes we did, but..........KSC: what!Jeb: It looks like we are stranded on Laythe, over.KSC: .............................................Jeb: I think one of the, um..... decouplers broke apart from our Pod?KSC: Damage?Jeb: Um not that much to our Pod?KSC: Status check?Jeb: Non-returnable sir.... over.KSC: Are you sure?Jeb: Yes, sir it most definitely looks like we wont be coming back, it is hard for me to say but its true.....KSC: How is Bob and Bill.Jeb: There ok, Bod went on EVA to go check the.... damage, over.KSC: Electronical Check?Jeb: Everything still has a couple days till they run out but the battery is running low.KSC: How long?Jeb: 7 minutes sir, its what the computer says.KSC: Well, there is nothing we can do?Jeb: There is one thing you can do.KSC: What?Jeb: Turn off the radio.........KSC: Bye Jeb.Jeb: Bye................................Jeb, Bill, and Bob will always be remembered. Forever and ever.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoyo478 Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Just saying, from the distance between Kerbin and Jool, that conversation would take 30 mins between sentences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fallofshadows14 Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 If this is a glitch plz someone say so.I'm not sure if this is actually a glitch, but I've had it happen to me. I just pulled the legs back in and put them out again, and everything went as normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khrissetti Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Just one reason among many my landers have 6 legs, I can afford to have a couple break off and still land upright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
