Colonel_Panic Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 He flew here all the way from Kerbin on his little ion spacebike and successfully docked for his transfer to the post on Minmus OASIS. As soon as docking was completed everything forward of the docking port on his spacebike spontaneously exploded, and sent him and what was left of the bike hurtling down to the minmus surface. There's not enough left of him to scrape off the surface in a rescue mission. :c Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bekiekutmoar Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 I've explored Kerbin lately with a simple VTOL. Flying over a mountain range.Ascending over the northern polar region.Looks like its broken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

War Eagle 1 Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 I present to you the latest in shot range single kerbal transport technologyThe KSB (Kerbal Space Bike) MK 5This small craft uses two small engines and rcs trusters to propel it through space.However it is so far only able to be brought up by the Shuttle Intrepid Kerbals can also use it to make their friends jealous. Size comparison of the KSB MK 5 to the IntrepidI think Jebadiah will like his new toy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

airlynx99 Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 My little replica of the Voyager 1 craft, nowhere near perfect, but all stock. Just started with the game, so I started with something small and simple. You'll notice the orbit velocity is 10368 m/s whereas the Voyager 1 is more like 17000 m/s or something like that. Also still in orbit with the sun, have a apoapsis of around 22 million Km. I messed up my staging and used over half my Nerva's fuel trying to circle an orbit around Kerbin before heading out for solar escape velocity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

War Eagle 1 Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Finaly finished the KSS Mt. Sinai. Now all it needs is a few space bikes and more crewWhat I need to add now is new living quarters. If someone would build me one I ll do my best to copy it and add it to KSS Mt. Sinai. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePyrateCaptain Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 For your viewing Pleasure, I present my version of the Aliens APC, the M577/a A Very durable, and reliable Unit, low center of gravity makes flipping it very difficult even in the most gravity deprived places. If flips, it genrally lands on its feet. Opening side door, and drivers door reveals interior, Deployable turret, retractable wheel system, 4 way steering.A must for planetary landings, LOL.

Tex_NL Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 I see NASA shuttles, Russian capsules, Star Trek/Wars ships, 'Alien' dropship and APC and many many more. What fun is it to introduce existing designs into KSP, a game where you can design and build your own ships/vehicles? I do appreciate the designs and the references to some epic movies but what's the point? I don't get it. Wouldn't it be much more fun and rewarding to recreate those vehicles with Kerbal parts. Yes, it can sometimes be immensely difficult to build re-creations AND make them function properly but that's exactly what it's all about.

Yes, it can sometimes be immensely difficult to build re-creations AND make them function properly but that's exactly what it's all about.Name one game that allows you to play with any of those things in a sandbox environment. Orbiter has a NASA shuttle, but the learning curve for that simulator is extremely steep. So what about the Russian rockets and ISS mods? Are there any games out there that let you try to re-create your own versions of the missions those real-world constructions have been on?No.KSP presents more than just a core "Lego-style" rocket building game. It also provides a physics engine that opens the door for at least a crude emulation of real world or movie constructions. I for one am interested in at least trying them out. At least they're adding some additional dimensions of interest to the game.The problem with trying to re-create everything entirely with core game parts is that sometimes the aforementioned basic nature of the physics engine just makes them too difficult to work with. How close can you get to re-creating the ISS before your system melts down due to too many parts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
