Launching multiple rockets at the same time.

[Guest]

While the forums were down, I got some new inspiration from reddit, launching multiple rockets at the same time. I am also experimenting with video and animation of screenshots. This first video is 4 rockets at the same time :

This video was made from screenshots. I set fraps to record a screenshot every 5 seconds, dumped all the screenshots into windows movie maker, and spit out an mp4. I like the end result here, compressing a rather long mission into 3 and half minutes of video.

Next is 2 ships launched at the same time :

This video is long and unedited, except for the necessary compression to make uploading to youtube take less than 1 lifetime. (edit : that's not exactly true, I set the playback speed to 2x, so originally it was over a half hour.)

Summary : try designing and launching more than 1 thing at a time for yourself. With a little practice, it's becomes quite fun and challenging.
