chobit-389 Posted May 31, 2013 Author Share Posted May 31, 2013 (edited) I've also finally figured out how to show satellites at various altitudes, so now all the map needs is mission names[EDIT]: Character designs are up next Edited May 31, 2013 by chobit-389 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trekkette Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 I guess that means I have to start work on secondary characters, doesn't it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chobit-389 Posted May 31, 2013 Author Share Posted May 31, 2013 Nope, just the main three. My original plan for a drop-down menu like this was scrapped since that only works with Wix on Flash...OMFG GTG BYE NEW YAMATO2199 EPISODES!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just have to spellcheck it one last time.So much awesomeness to look out for...Anyway, I'm late but I just spotted the name of the Mün Base: Sessrumnir...In Norse mythology, Sessrúmnir (Old Norse "seat-room"[1] or "seat-roomer"[2]) is both the goddess Freyja's hall located in Fólkvangr... Are you kidding me?Also, 230 2E - First Valhallan astronauts reach the Mün, soon followed by the completion of the VSA's first space station.When was the first Kerbal on the Mün, in space and when was the first space station completed?

chobit-389 Posted May 31, 2013 Author Share Posted May 31, 2013 The timeline follows the VSA, not Kerbin in general. Several other Kerbal nations landed on the Mun first and the VSA had to make up for lost time.NASA had a space station not long after the Apollo program was completed. So it does make a measure of sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Specialist290 Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Freya being a Junker: Called it.A bit odd that you only gave last names for one character, but I guess those are still being worked on.Otherwise, nothing really leaps out at me as being bad.

Short version - Vahallans don't have surnames. Like Iceland. Nadari wasn't born on the island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Specialist290 Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 I'd still imagine they'd use something like a patronymic, just for the sake of distinguishing two people of the same name who might be in the same group.Unless, of course, there is only ever one person named Freya on the entire island at any given time.

Specialist290 Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 No problem Finally, I can justify my countless hours of sitting on an isolated island in the middle of the North Atlantic doing absolutely nothing of note in Crusader Kings II as a constructive use of my time!

MmPMSFmM Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Meh, lies. https://www.dropbox.com/s/tj66ivht1gardby/Timeline%20fix.png There you go. Removed the i and moved the "ring nations of Kerbin, the first landing of kerbals on Laythe." so it looks like 1 word again. As easy as that.Anyway, in the title it says 00:00, what time zone?

Mekan1k Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Whooo! Awesome Chobit! Could you make a version of the system chart without any spacecraft on it? I would like to print that and put it on my wall as a poster! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chobit-389 Posted June 1, 2013 Author Share Posted June 1, 2013 I can't take credit for the template background, but I did all the fiddly bits. I'd have made my own chart completely from scratch but Lonesentry's is absolutely fantastic. Why fix what ain't broke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
