But now we are faced with a dilemma, I don’t know how to get my save file to the forums, nor do I know how to get the craft files there

Egap wen kool yeh

In your root KSP Directory, there should be a directory called 'saves'. In that directory, you will find directories with your current saves. Each directory contains a .sfs and .loadmeta file for each save, as well as a Crafts directory. Copy and zip up the directory of the save you want to share, or copy and zip up the crafts directory. 
 

Regardless of which you share, I would then (this only works if you have google drive) upload the zip archive you created (in theory, tarballs would also work, but getting them to work on Windows is more difficult. Don't use RAR, as they definitely don't work on Linux, and I don't know if they work on Mac), go to settings, make it so anyone with the link can download, and copy and share the link.

 

This is at least what I did.

 

Also, my next addition(s) might look less good then my first, this is because I'll be doing them on a computer that can't handle Astronomer's Visual Pack, but can handle Scatterer and EVE. 
 

One more unrelated thing, I'll be justifying the Kamericans vague and possibly incorrect knowledge of Koviet activities through a large community of hobbyist plane and rocket-spotters.

Chapter 1

Revolution

“Revolution-1, you are cleared for launch. We will dominate space.” Says mission control. The launch sequence begins.

“All engines are firing well, acceleration is good.”

“The engine trust is good” says the pilot

“Beginning gravity turn, the kommunist domination of space is getting closer and closer” says mission control.

 
“boosters separated, throttling up again”.

A few seconds later

we’ve crossed the karmin line, shut down the engines”

”Fairings deployed”

“we are approaching our maneuver node. Engage the engines”

“Dang it we just lost contact, we were on a sup orbital trajectory.” 

“Revolution one please respond”

“revolution one is in orbit” says the pilot

”stay in orbit and await our orders, prepare your weapons for attack. GLORY TO THE KOVIET UNION!”

“We will dominate space. GLORY TO THE KOVIET UNION, LONG LIVE THE REVOLUTION!” Says Valentina.

Yes for now Val works for the KOVIETs 

 

 

Looks really good! Also, there is actually historical precedent for Valentina to be with the Kommunists (She is named after Valentina Tereshkova, the first and youngest woman in space.)

Liftoff! Engines ignite with a powerful roar as the FT-21 shoots off the runway.

The Kommunists have triumphed again with a HYPERSONIC bomber!

Interesting. Perhaps this will be launched from the Dessert Airfield to put the KSC out of commission? Strategically choosing where to bomb the KSC depending on their current plans could really put the Koviets ahead in the Space Kurling Kompetition (That's what I decided to name this Kerbal space race)

I don't have DLC, sorry!

The plane's hypersonic, but absolutely uncontrollable with engines off...

[SSTO Crasher]

I am on window so how would I get the file onto drive 

Also @Akagi the koviets are operating out of the desert airfield so that is going to be hard

I just opened up Google Drive, got it to the upload file screen, and dragged the zip file from file explorer to the upload file box.

Perhaps I could get the latitude and longitude of a flat area near the airfield, and then to do the Koviets, you can just cheat the craft to that location?

[Akagi]

OK, great!

[SSTO Crasher]

Ok @Akagi you send the craft file, I will put it in the ships folder, and post the final save

[Akagi]

i don't know how to do that and I'm not on a computer with ksp

it's currently belowdecks on the yacht. the yacht, which is 20 miles from harbor. The yacht, which I'm not on. I'm sitting on my bed, typing on the forums.

[SSTO Crasher]

Oh.

well that’s a problem.

[Akagi]

the yacht, which is coming back to port... in 4 hours.

Currently building a John C. Butler-class destroyer escort, Japanese. Could I remove the back turret and replace it with... a rocket launch platform?

[SSTO Crasher]

?

also, we need more participants 

@AtomicTech @Admiral Fluffy @Stormpilot care to join the project 

[Akagi]

so, could i be the japanese space program?

[SSTO Crasher]

It would have to be the kapanese space program, and you need would need your ships to be easily replicated so that if they become important others can use them. Also, no one person is a single space program. We are all helping to build a story, not role playing a single group. But, given the circumstances and the fact that you can submit craft files or save files, as long as the inability of others to use your ship or your inability to use ours does not harm the plot, I’m ok with that

[AtomicTech]

So what's the goal?

[SSTO Crasher]

As stated before, the goal is to collaborate on building a story, with each person’s post building off the last

[AtomicTech]

I see, so

Atomic Technologies Incorporated at your service!

[Akagi]

AAI is getting underway with the Bongo Cat Comet Grabber and an H-II rocket.

So, I'll introduce the Nation of Kazumasen!

Spoiler

Also found here on NationStates: https://www.nationstates.net/nation=kazumasen

This Nation has population of 1.268 Million Citizens of various races, named Excecus, they're fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

State-owned companies are common but the largest, Atomic Technologies Incorporated, is independant and employs many scientists and engineers in its cutting-edge aerospace fields.

Here's the borders

see the big island a little south of your country?

that's owned by the Kappa Empire

This is getting very, um, National. It’s not necessary meant to be every play is a corporation, it is that everyone helps build a story

Gotcha, I just like it because it gives a larger sense of background.

I'll share a craft:

The Gamma DSRV (Destructive Supersonic Rocket Vehicle) is an experimental ICBM with an approximate 50 kilometer range that could be used for other operations, such as orbital spaceflight.
