Game's (almost,but) completed

[JiWint]

Edit:Thank you people for answering,but once I said I don't need any mods...you posted thousands of mods I should try. :|

Challenges are very 'interesting yet,I'm gonna make a boat for eve D:

And so there's nothing to discover. I've been on mun,minmus,duna,eve,gilly,moho,dres,jool,eeloo,saw tylo,vall,pol,bop,laythe...

What to do next? (please don't suggest mods)

(I'm planning to land on eve, and jool moons,but I find that boring,just a routine: build a rocket.fly it.crash it.upgrade.fly to a planet.land on it.plant a flag.Pretend to be happy.Takeoff.fly home.tah dah. )

Set your own goals! That's the great thing about KSP.

[Zorrm]

Give yourself tougher goals. Now if you want about the hardest thing to accomplish, go to Eve, land and plant flag, then return Jeb back to Kerbin.

[Monkeh]

Have you found any of the 8 'anomalies' on the Mun?

There's a couple on Duna too.

Why no mods? Mods are great. Kethane, ISA MapSat, robotic arms form magic smoke industries. So much extra stuff to play with and design with. They add a whole load more stuff to do.

Have you ever returned anyone from anywhere? What about Eve? Get someone back from Eve. Build a munbase. Build a space station.

Loads of stuff to do.

I've seen all of anomalies. And I saw more than 3...on duna....

Mods are unfair.I really hate then on every single game *erp*

By the way,I once let me try some mods (I was SERIOUSLY bored then).B9 wasn't such a good choice...

[lazarus1024]

Build space stations at different places. You can do grand tour missions. Alternately start a new.

Perfect multimission ships. Maybe do a transplanetary rover trip. Drive Duna possibly (small enough with high enough gravity). If you haven't done it at all, do SOME rover missions. Maybe make a jump ship for light gravity bodies (a seat, probe core, some RCS tankage and jets. Basically a rover without the wheels to hop around the moon). Launch a probe straight in to the Star. Build space shuttles/planes.

Wait till the new update and Research?

Build the biggest, badest interplanetary ship you can.

There's already an amphibous rover/plane on duna

I have a space station orbiting kerbin

SRB voyager is leaving Kerbol system now

Icarus already crashed into the Kerbol,and

Jittarus already crashed into the Jool D:

[FITorion]

Use your imagination.

That's what a sand box is for. Create the world you want to live in yourself.

[Monger]

Well, deploying bases on moons and planets is probably one of the toughest things to do in this game. So if you have already discovered everything, then it's about to bring some industry into space. Once you can safely get cargo from one planet to the other... well, then 0.22 should be ready!

[BostLabs]

Snort!

Bored? Go outside. Get away from the electronics for a bit.

[Monkeh]

Who are they unfair to?

But anyway, there's loads of mods that only add stuff that make it harder to do stuff. Have you tried to make a spaceplane and use the FAR mod?

I'm currently building a Kerbal disco with some rotating discs from the robotics pack, the satellite probe core and some Aviation lights to make a disco ball...spinning around and around. It looks cool all spinny and flashy and disco style. I'm going to fly it to the Mun and have a disco on the Mun with as many Kerbals as i can get there.

Just...stuff. Use your imagination man.

Land on every body using the SAME rover. Drive somewhere nice and plant a flag, then go to the next one.

[thescientist]

do you need a goal? install an hardmode mod and try to do everything...without blowing everything up!

note: also your gameplay will change. ie. instead of enormuos rover you'll prefer a small all in one, that is much more hard to design...

[Demon_82]

Did you saw the life support mods? I don't think they can be called unfair, they add a difficulty layer to get alive your kerbals in every long trip that's pretty nice I think.

[BostLabs]

Don't understand the unfair thing. Who are you being unfair to? Sandbox game, it's just you, man.

[fatfluffycat]

I would go outside, but theirs a big mean ball of light out there....

Play a different game?

I think you just answered your own question.

[Sma]

Yeah, I'm not sure I really get the unfair part either. Other than using mods that do things for you, or that add insanely powered engines.

With Kethane, it's something that will eventually, maybe be in the game. Then there's enhanced navball mod, which was originally intended to be in 0.18. ISA MapSat, while it's sort of broken it has been patched together by the community to work with 0.21 as far as I know. I've been holding off as I wanted to use RT2 and make a kethane/ISA Map Sat combo. Mostly I've just been testing different things, lately kOS http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/47399-kOS-Scriptable-Autopilot-System-0-83. It sort of makes things easier, but you have to program it your self, unless of course you "cheat" and use someone elses program.

I can see using mods that give engines that have super high power and use little fuel as being "unfair" to a certain extent, but it is a single player game, so you can do whatever you want.

Now, the exception is if you're competing against others in the Reddit Challenges. This weeks challenge is 3-Man SSTO the title says it all but easy mode requires getting 3 kerbals to orbit using a single stage, and then return them safely to Kerbin. Hard mode is do the same, but go to go to the Mun and then return to Kerbin.

[oggylt]

then i would suggest mission controller to add a budget to your missions and a goals simple as go flyby moon or land probe with those parts on it (those are my fav goals, so i build probe as ordered )

[BostLabs]

Yes. Doing any challenge using anything that the challenge forbids would be unfair and would only gain you a disqualification.

However, if it is only just your world and your play. Why not play however you like? Overpowered engines? Go for it. MechJeb? Go for it. Isn't the whole point in the sandbox game to have fun?

[geb]

The spaceships are the star of the show in KSP. The planets are cool, but basically just pretty spheres of rock. They're only there to provide a background to your engineering.

Design new and more awesome spaceships.

[BostLabs]

I would go outside, but theirs a big mean ball of light out there....

Sunscreen, dude.

Play a different game?

probably best for a bit.

I fear for future generations. We are going to be a species of very pale people. No matter what race you happen to be. That is until we get plugged in and put in a support tube and start powering the matrix.

What to do next?

Spaceplanes is working for me. I never really got the hang of them before.

[Specialist290]

Personally, I've found the best solution to be to play a different (set of) game(s) for a while, then come back to this one when I'm "recharged," so to speak. Just load up some mindless little action game / shooter / platformer / racing game where you can mindlessly shoot / stomp / race without having to worry about complex things.

A few suggestions of my own, though:

- Try to land on the Mun using only solid rockets (and maybe RCS).

- Try to get to another planet using only solid rockets (and maybe RCS).

- Design a completely asymmetrical rocket, then see if you can get it into orbit without changing the asymmetrical aspect of the design.

- Build a spaceplane that can circumnavigate Kerbin without leaving the lower atmosphere.

- Build and pilot a boat.

- Mount your boat on a rocket, then put it on Laythe and pilot it there.

- Intentionally strand some of your kerbonauts in solar orbit with no way to get home (you monster), then launch a rescue mission to get them back.

- Build a single ship that can visit every planet without refueling.

- Look for more anomalies everywhere. Maybe the devs actually added a few we haven't noticed, or that the rest of us are just keeping quiet about.

- Take a rover with an internal cabin, put it on the Mun, then look for a pair of craters and plant an arc of flags to one side so that it looks like a smiley face from the map view.

- Launch an array of satellites in orbit around Kerbin, then arrange their orbits so that they form pleasingly symmetrical rosettes.

- Send something to find out what's at the center of that huge impact crater on Kerbin.

- Get a kerbonaut, and have him walk all the way to the North Pole from KSC to plant a flag.

- Build a lander that can take 21 kerbonauts, then land it on the Mun and build a kerbal pyramid out of the kerbonauts.

- Build a scale replica of an Easter Island moai entirely out of structural panels, then land it on Laythe and pretend it's a new anomaly.

- Build a giant rocket, then build a mobile launchpad to carry it over the mountains to the other side of the continent, and launch it from the opposite shore. Call it "Fitzkerbaldo."

Above all, find something you do genuinely enjoy doing, and do that until it stops being enjoyable. If you feel like "polishing off the salad bar"* is getting tedious, take a break and do something utterly ridiculous instead.

* Getting new ribbons and devices for your mission ribbons.

Adding more things to the list.

[lammatt]

yea, playing a game which focuses on modding without mod is the way doing things.

this is absolutely the smartest decision on earth.

nah, in all seriousness, you should open your mind and have fun trying out different plugins and mods.

dont be a close-minded person, it does you no good whatsoever.
