[Showcase] Post your seat-based creations


Recommended Posts

So the first thing we all did in 0.20 was strap Jeb to an SRB, but what else have you done using the seats?

Here's my creation, the Vertically Launched Exploration Vehicle (VLEV):

Capable of being piggy-backed for easy relocation:

Enough about me, let's see what you guys have made!

I love reentry,

I love the purple skies,

I love big rockets,

I love when Kerbals fly,

I love the whole game,

And all its sights and sounds,

Boom-de-yah-da, boom-de-yah-da

Boom-de-yah-da, boom-de-yah-da

I love Laythe's oceans,

I love crash debris,

I love to go fast,

I love tremendous gees,

I love the whole game,

And all its explosions,

Boom-de-yah-da, boom-de-yah-da

Boom-de-yah-da, boom-de-yah-da

Here it is. A never released craft of the BluPlanet Association due to strangely poor reviews during testing. I present you...the Kerbal Toaster. Because we all know there are cannibals out there who would love to get their hands on some kerbal flesh...(you know who you are)

Discovery channel's song! :D

God I miss it. It was the coolest thing ever because they were all singing together! :)

I give you....the Emergency Orbital Return Vehicle!

It has no control torque, no docking ability, no SAS/ASAS, no instruments, and uses its RCS unit for spinning out of control and de-orbiting.

Let's try it out.

End result: Success! Buuuut......Design scrapped because I had better things than this in service already. Plus this thing is nearly impossible to control.

Also, to anyone else who wants to make an ejector-seat, I advise the use of the drogue chute, because anything larger will catapult the kerbal out of the chair when it opens unless you have some other means of slowing down beforehand. I do wish we had the ability to start a new ship with a seat *with a kerbal in it* so I don't have to ruin my beautiful flying machines with spare Mk.1 pods.

Does anyone else have a problem with the seats; when switching to a ground-based vehicle that has Kerbals in the seats, they "fall through" the vehicle and land on the ground, then follow the vehicle around as you try to drive it, and you can't activate them or remove them from the seats or put them back in, and it's stuck like that forever?
