Doing what I do best, spamming this thread with fictional cold war era fighters.

 

Revel's got nothing on this guy. :wink:

So I issue a challenge!

They don't mess with the aerodynamics at all?

I've been inspired to try harder in KSP, So I've spent today building, in orbit, a Duna Transfer Vehicle. And by today I do mean it. I've been at this all day. I under loaded their delivery stages for the first two modules and had to throw in three more launches of fuel tenders to make up for it, one of which never even got to the module it was sent to rescue. I still have to build the descent module, the assent module and the fuel tender that's going to take the assent module to Duna in the first place. 

 

AND THEN THE GAME CRASHED!!!!! If you'd all excuse me I have to go find somewhere to curse loudly. oh wait, I live in New York, I'll just go stick my head out the window...

You have backup saves... probably. :wink:

Go to the savegame folder and check the list of .sfs files under your own save name. Should be a fairly current one. Just use the "load game" option from the escape menu in the KSP scene.

It had auto saved when I discarded one of the module's boost stages, but I was just PO'ed it even happened. The game is 99% stable, I get something right I'd screwed up dozens of times in the past and boom, the thing craps out.

These are the times that demand the most caution. Murphy demands it.

Yes, we use rude words and speak our minds, but that does not mean we are rude. ^_^

Testing the Duna Dog Mk III rover:

This is what happens when you forget to properly stage your payload...I've read The Martian, I should have known better.

But, amazingly...I knew the Dog was tough, but I didn't realize just HOW tough...

40FB3B760D21DC171195CD4DA62ABEAA6E0E1E087352E34D02C5518A6DC67CB842DD07A35E2CD0F5

Seriously...entire 22K DV lifter pile-driven into it at full throttle...and it only broke off the relay antenna. (It even has a backup antenna in case of catastrophe, so it still runs.)

Further testing on the Mun:

Managed to break off relay antenna, there, too...along with, eventually, one headlamp...so now we've hardened the nigh indestructible rover into the Duna Dog Mk IV.

Now featuring a wider overall wheel-base, as well as re-positioned headlamps and relay:

I said "nigh" indestructible because on re-entry testing, I...uh...forgot to re-attach the chutes....

Tough rover, but not THAT tough, sadly.
