This is my KSP. [some screenshots of KSP from my style of play]

Everyone has their own unique mod setup, their own unique style of building, etc in KSP. This is mine.

This is a view from my crew shuttle, docking with my newly launched station.

In the upper left, I have the KER rendezvous windows, to the upper right is the Lazer Docking Cam and the MechJeb Smart A.S.S. Below this is the MechJeb rendezvous window. In the window, you can see part of the station. I am docking manually using RCS, with MechJeb holding the attitude on the target. I don't use most of MechJeb's functions, as beyond Smart A.S.S. they don't work very well for me. I do use it for informational purposes that it may serve better than KER. For example when setting up a rendezvous, it's rendezvous window is superior to KER's. I'm a big fan of tools like MJ and KER, I feel they augment the lack of avionics in base KSP.

This is the crew shuttle docked with the station, the crew shuttle at the top. It is composed of the standard 3 man command pod, as can be seen, a shielded docking part, four landing legs, two radial engines, two solar panels, B9 RCS and a PlaCo inflatable heatshield(used with deadly reentry), as well as three B9 airbrakes. The airbrakes are used to force the vehicle into a retrograde heatshield first direction when atmosphere is hit. This is used with FAR. The vehicle lands with two radial drogue chutes and two radial regular parachutes. It lands on land with the four legs, touchdown slowed slightly by the engines if fuel is remaining. The station is Karmony, I believe, and the orange tanks in struts are from deep space pack.

This is the crew shuttle on the pad, with it's launch vehicle. It is launched with the two side SRBs and the center engine which is a Rockomax Atlas engine. These are KW parts. The SRBs have parachutes on top for reusability, and small solid rockets on the bottom to allow them to separate without hitting the center tank(took a while to work that out). Since it is used with FAR, the launch method I use is roll and pitch to a 90 heading and 75 pitch at 70 M/S, then wait until 10-20 apoapsis is achieved before continuing the pitch. Generally, I can go to orbit with just the two SRBs and the expendable center engine, but sometimes the two engines on the vehicle itself have to be used.

Thanks for look, what do you think of my KSP style?
