Kavaeric Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Hello. Not that new here by any stretch in technicality if you look at my profile, but it is the first time in ages, so I felt it right to re-introduce myself. I've been playing KSP for what feels like forever. Currently going through a new career mode thing. I try to challenge myself to make fresh and unique looking craft that are still functional in the career context, usually involving me sketching out my ideas before committing to their construction. My current project is updating my crew vehicle, though the past version (see below) seems to have gone well. I may make a thread sharing my progress in my career mode but I'm not sure if this is the sort of thing people care for. That aside, I currently hang out on the Intercept Games Discord, namely in the KSP2 general chat for reasons unbeknown to humans, usually offering tribute to the CMs of some kind as seen below. I'm also working on a stage designer calculator tool that hopefully some people may find useful. Its biggest limitation is that it only works in Excel, not Google Sheets, so finding a way (or help) to port it to perhaps be a standalone webapp of some sort or even an in-game tool may be helpful. Hoping to meet new people and follow the development of KSP1 mods and KSP2 as well. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanamonde Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Very methodical. I usually just throw things together and see how they work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But most importantly I spend hours to make stuff look nice after having spent two minutes throwing stuff together before I test it. Always ends up in flames.

It can't be rushed. Besides, flames are always a good look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mission reports is a pretty good place for a rolling journal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hm, it'd be less like "mission reports" I feel and a bit more like artist commentary, since my big imposition in this career mode is to also make things look pretty. See stuff like the following Spoiler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And sorry about the thing on the Discord again, I feel really bad about it lol I think I did find someone who made some engines they want to put into the game but is looking for a texture artist (me?) So maybe Parts By Kavaeric will be a thing soon lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
