Rest in Peace, Saves

Here's a place to in memory of our previous works...

R.I.P. saves

Remember the Atlas Space Station...

Has been on orbit for 1y 321d, construction started in 0.18.1, stopped when SAS wobbling problem becoming severe.

83×82km around Kerbin, 65.64 ton.

Rest in peace, we will build a larger one in 0.21 with a better SAS!

Craft files should still work. You could always just HyperEdit old stations into orbit in one piece.

[RocketTurtle]

You can probably edit the persistence file to add your space station if you wanted to. Also please don't double post, just edit what you want to add into your original post, and also, this probably wasn't a necessary thread, there are a few just like it.

Sad Derpy... That's... That's my weakness.

No but seriously, you guys are more sad that you're losing your saves than you are happy there's a new update.

I will miss the Celestia station in Keosync, though.

That's in keosynchronous orbit, eh? In the new version, you should edit it back in place, then have a sister station, Luna, on the opposite side of the planet.

Actually I use the "Luna" designation for all my Munar missions. But yeah that's a good idea.

Calm down guys, you still got plenty of time to enjoy your saves...

[Whackjob]

It's not an ending.

It's a new beginning.

[Dizzle]

Calm down guys, you still got plenty of time to enjoy your saves...

Or forever, if you just have a separate install.

[Flymetothemun]

Saves, rest in obso-peace.

Speaking of obsolescence, if I can find a cassette data recorder i'm gonna put all of my .craft file's text on audiocassettes and screw with my grandkids.

[soranno]

It`s not like this is even the first time.. and assuredly won`t be the last. Why all the melodrama..

Screw it Dude, let`s go bowling... I mean to space, let`s go to space

Sacrifices in the name of progress my dear lads and lass'!

I'll be glad knowing I lost my save to bettering the game, which inevitably results in better saves!

I only hope I can still keep my ships, I can always relaunch, but redesigning is going to hurt.....

[Corbald]

My System is littered with the debris of my failed experiments (and in some cases, the debris of the successes!), so I'm glad for an excuse at a clean sweep!

[CaptRobau]

I'll gladly weep for others' saves. I for one couldn't care. Saves never last longer than a month with me. Once things get to cluttered and I'm past a certain phase (building stations, dragsters, etc.) I often just delete them. My designs are usually not too complex, so if I need them in my other saves I generally recreate them within minutes from memory.

[generalmiller]

I'm going to actually miss my debris. I put a lot of work into a lander that would leave a decent looking descent next to the flag just like in reality. Out of curiosity is it the SAS changes that are necessitating the clean slate?

[altazure]

The SAS changes may (?) break your crafts, but Harverster also confirmed that the new crew management system breaks the save files for sure.

[ComradeGoat]

My only regret is that I never finished building my Laythe and Duna stations, both of which are semi-complete.

Having said that, they're held together with wobbly old clamp-o-trons. The next ones will be better.

[Flixxbeatz]

Or you could just pull off a kurtjmac and continue playing your old save in 0.20

[Tommygun]

Everything in the Kerbal universe is ephemeral and temporary.

Eventually it all gets blown up. You ether do it on purpose, by accident or the physics engine blows it up for you.

The only thing that last forever is the endless supply of Kerbals coming from the cloning tanks.

[ComradeGoat]

Or you could just pull off a kurtjmac and continue playing your old save in 0.20

Considering it.

[togfox]

The next update could be 4 weeks away.

[AntonioAJC]

I would probably lose my most successful save I have. Doesn't matter since I really hate the wobbly SAS with RCS.

After all guys, since SQUAD knows that the new update will break saves, now they're going to do things that would normally break saves and put it in the update

[Omicron314]

Well, I suppose I'll miss my illogical number of satellites all in equatorial orbit, but I am certainly looking forward to this next update (they are deciding to add some really cool new features in exchange for a month more development time, right?). I'll finish the stations I am building now, then begin a very elaborate de-construction process where I deorbit EVERYTHING! I would like to attempt a respectable Munbase, though.
