TopHeavy11 Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 (edited) Dang, I'm gettin' jelly! Y'all are over there making awesome stations...and I'm just over here making basic stuff. I guess there's a certain style I follow...no nonsense, add what you need, no more, no less. Also, new page!

RoboRay Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 (edited) New version going up in 1.2 is a slight redesign... It will keep growing as contracts come in. The big craft is a VTOL SSTO inspired by the Delta Clipper.

landfish2 Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 (edited) I have no idea how to make a gif so just image the two circles at the ends spinning I have learned how to make gifs!

__Ultimatum Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I made this in 1.1. I can dock without mechjeb, but I got bored and let mechjeb do the work in the background. Mostly stock, some spacey parts, some near future parts Stats: 2 tug modules 2 attachment hubs 2 Solar arrays 1 crew module 1 refueling tank 1 crew transport 1 science lab If anyone wants ill send the world save.

JadeOfMaar Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I think it's a little inappropriate to post an incomplete station... But here's my next one. The Cubis, launched from Munbase Muna Industria. All of this is just the core. It's waiting on MKS-Lite to (and if it will) catch up to KSP 1.2. If it doesn't I may have to say goodbye to those beautiful inflatables and flex-o-tubes and change how I design the modules for crew and orbital construction...and blow off the EL pad off of the top there with Whack A Kerbal Object Thrower. I'm staying in KSP 1.1.3 for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vector824 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 (edited) Here's a couple of mine for science! 1st science station: 2nd station was launched after the 1st was no longer compatible with 1.2 and de-orbited. Currently has hab, fuel and science modules. Edited October 21, 2016 by Vector824 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpy Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 It kinda... grew organically,. A contract for extension here, a kerbal for rescue locked inside a deployable module there, a kraken-derived explosion at another time... The two dinghies for orbital operations are very useful, there are 9 kerbals of crew currently, including 4 rescuees. It's pretty low-tech too. Heavily modded, primarily abusing Buffalo rover and Pathfinder pack parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wjolcz Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 (edited) Sorry, no anti-aliasing. I'm a laptop pleb. Spoiler I just assembled this thing in the VAB and cheated into orbit around Laythe, because I consider designing a nice space station a kind of art. And I'm lazy. But it's still a station, right!?

Araym Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 (edited) I was just bored (some of the needed plugins for 1.2 by me are not updated)... ... so I resumed my still ongoing 1.1.3 installation. Casually 2 "classic" of stationmaking (as I already did in 0.90 the MIR... still in my sign that fatigue): - SKYLAB, too, first (MOLE, BlueDog Design Bureau, some IR for the folding solar telescope mount) BUT, mostly, this tim I HAD to complete the BIGGER ONE, before switching to 1.2: the K.I.S.S. ("Kerbal International Space Station) ... it just lack of the Pirs, Poisk and Rassvet docking adapters on the russian segment, but it has a moveable Kanadarm 2 robotic arm...

Nixod321 Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 It's not big, but I really liked the aesthetics of this starter station: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmetian Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Holy crap, it's been 3 years since I posted my last station to this thread! In all that time I've created dozens of aircraft and SSTOs, but I don't think I built a proper station until now. This picture is of a hyperedited simulated version of my Haven Station. So far I've only sent up the central hub and an RCS tug, and I'm trying to document the building progress in a series of short youtube videos. Haven is a much more conservative design compared to my last station, and should I move it into orbit around Minmus it will actually serve a purpose as a refinery and lab. I'm still using KSP 1.1.3 for now since FAR hasn't been updated, so I guess I'll have to send up a comms module if I port it over to 1.2 (assuming there are no other issues).

maallaard Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 (edited) This is Station K1, a refueling/science LKO space station I made when I was bored in my career save. The part I like about it most are the 4 tiny tugs I used to construct the station (especially for the fuel tanks). You may notice the docking sections between the 2.5m modules are 4 1.25m docking ports on a quad coupler, reason being is that I hate having to align modules when I'm docking with them (especially for the fuel tanks), and the docking design I used for this station makes aligning modules so much easier. I don't really use it much but I think I should because it took me about two days to complete. None of this by the way was Hyper edited into orbit, all modules were launched from the space center without any cheats. Also, no mods were used in the making of the space station (I would have but 1.2 killed mod compatibility). Hope you like it.

nmartin84 Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 (edited) This was going to be my Mun orbital research station which has 1 kerbal currently stationed, but I forgot to add a command module so i've lost all control to the vessel.

The station looks pretty nice. The nice thing about stations, of course, is that you can easily add more modules if you forget something.

cueceleches Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 This is my Duna Space Station... it´s ugly and keeps expanding by contracts every so often... at least it´s functional! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are A LOT of mod involved: - Tantares (for the russian segment) - CxAerospace and HabTech mixed for the other elements - obviously Infernal Robotics, but also some from RKE-Kanadarm, for the robotic arms, but also for the main moveable antenna on the Zvezda module - surelly, involved, little bits here and there from a tons of other mods I have and actually forgot, because I'm not playing a lot lately (just waiting the new pc, and, as I didn't moved to 1.2.1, I'm wasting not so much of my time with this dying 2008 laptop ) ... in the sig there a bit more of pictures (in the "old mission reports" link) involving that Station...

tater Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Mun Station 1. Room for 24 in the habs, not that I ever put that many there, they need some room to move around. SSTU, except for a few science parts. The landers are 7 parts each, plus the science stuff (4 on each, I think). Orion is 2 parts, the entire station is 4 parts (it could look very different in literally many hundreds of ways using just those 4 parts with different adapters, solar, etc) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steedcrugeon Posted November 13, 2016 Share Posted November 13, 2016 (edited) Here's a little station i put together to test some new space dock parts. it really need a bit more hab and there is no-where near enough fuel storage but plenty of room for spare parts.

HazelPine Posted November 13, 2016 Share Posted November 13, 2016 Began work on my firs station in my new 1.2 career! Still needs lots of love, but it's gonna be great once finished. Seats 5, has 3 Jr. docking ports and is supposed to have a science lab to finish the contract that made me launch it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
