Hi There!

[N3BULAV0ID]

Hallo fellow kerbalnauts! I'm N3BULAV0ID (pretty 1337 huh?) and I'm newishish to KSP, been playing for about a month. I've successfully completed Mün and Minmus landings, now I'm working on setting up an orbital fuel depot. I figured it would be nice to have a forums account so that I could ask questions about anything I'm having trouble with... which brings me to the first of what will likely be very, very many:

I'm trying to get 5 rockomax 64 fuel cans to orbit in one launch for my fuel depot, but I'm having some trouble. Any ideas/videos that I could watch?

What sort of trouble are you having? Pics of the ship might help a diagnosis.

Welcome to the forums!

tyvm for replying so quickly

I'm not having any specific problems with my rocket design, it's just that I can't figure out how to add enough fuel to get that heavy a payload into orbit without the entire thing falling apart. I'm not looking to improve on my design, I'm looking for a new one, and hoping that somebody else has already figured out how to pull off that sort of thing.

as for adding pics, I can't quite figure out how. The "insert image" button asks for a URL, and my screenshots aren't online, nor do I want them to be.

Welcome to the forums.

I couldn't get five up into orbit, but I did manage to get three for refueling. Of course they had to be refueled once I got them there. Which wasn't too difficult, I've learned bigger isn't always better. I'm setting up two different refueling stations, one orbiting Minmus which is basically a space station and another which is going to orbit Duna once I get it there. The one which will orbit Duna is going to be a no frills refueling station, just the basics to get the job done.

[N3BULAV0ID]

Tyvm. I would settle for three, could you possibly send me your design for getting that up there?

[cybit]

I don't mind sending it to you, I'll just ask which plugin's or mods your using....just in case I used a part from a mod. I'm pretty sure I haven't used anything but stock though.

[N3BULAV0ID]

I'm using no mods, so yeah, stock only. I'm sure that if you used a few mod parts, though, I would be able to adapt your design as long as you explain what these do.
