watched KSPTV's twitch...feel sad now

[lammatt]

there was a video called SSTO Tutorial...

and in that he was airhogging 8 intakes into 1engine to take the jet to 32km high

aw does it mean even the official guys approve airhogging as a legitimate way instead of an exploit?

i mean... come on... oxygen and atmosphere dont work that way...

Yes, but this isn't a hard-core simulator. It's supposed to be fun too.

[lammatt]

an easy way to make SSTO easier is to release a SABRE engine with a reasonably good thrust and good isp in vacuum

and boom... problem solved since you dont have to deal with the weight of an extra engine and since the only thing making an plane hard to fly is that the rockets either run out of fuel before escaping the atmosphere (the aerospike/LT- engines) or they lack the thrust the lift the plane (the LV-N)

(i found airhogging in an official channel is pretty lame... i mean... you never saw any other official game channel using an exploit when they stream did you?)

Just because they're showing off something cool you can do with current physics, doesn't mean they intend to keep it forever. There's lots of fun and silly things you can do now that will eventually be removed to make way for bigger, better features.

For a complete list of examples, take a look at Danny's YouTube channel. Don't drink milk while watching, there's a good chance you'll blow it out your nose!!

And your ears.

The atmosphere isn't complete yet, just wait till the Devs make the big change (aerodynamics) they've being talking about since C7 became dev.

got a link... or better description so I don't go searching Youtube for "Danny"?

"Airhogging" is about as cheat-y as being able to take a rocket capable of bending over almost on itself successfully into orbit and beyond. You'll get over it.

[HoY]

That's his newest one, I really recommend going to his channel and starting from video 1

Just wait until the aerodynamics overhaul. That will probably fix it.
