1.25 tonnes

Minimum Confirm-able Distance to KSC = 54.4 km

Minimum Altitude over KSC = 48,143 m (actual minimum confirm-able altitude = 48,002 m)

Chute+Port = 0.94 multiplier

Score = ((1.25*3000) + (0.5*48,143) + (0.2*54,400))*0.94 = (3750 + 24071.5 + 10880)*0.94 = 38071.5*0.94 = 36,379.41

So I claim 36,379 points for this run.

Saw this at work and it looked interesting so figured I would give it a shot.

Here is my first entry.

After looking at the images looks like I was pointing a little to vertical for the "Cameras" will post a new one tomorrow with a video.

Score = TMoSbM*3000 + 0.5*mAwSpoKSC + 0.2*DbSaKSC

TMoSbM : 0.51t

mAwSpoKSC : 25850

DbSaKSC : 26300

Satellite launched with its own docking station bonus 0.95

(0.51*3000)+(0.5*25850)+(0.2*26300)*0.95

(1530+12925+5260)*0.95

19715*0.95

Final Score: 18729.25

Nice scoring. But - your 88-88 are not pointing directly same way for those photos to make. So, work this out pls and you will be master engineer, for now at least.

EIDT: Ok, so I kinda had to completely overdone rules and scoring. It is now more clear and less exploitable than before.

Also added two separated categories so we can have more fun with it

It is visible from images that I was even much lower than on shot, but this on is only confirmable with distance.

Score: (2000*Mt + 0.5*Am + 0.3*Ds)*(Ap/Pe)*C = (2000*0.83 + 0.5*38,409 + 0.3*38400)*(75,045/74,740)*1 = 32,517 points.
