Climbable Flagpole

[Zapness]

So I found out you can climb the flagpoles at the KSC. Sorry I don't have pictures, but I can never get them to work anyways. Basically, just walk up to either the launch pad flagpole or the astronaut complex one and then itll give you the option to climb it. If someone can post pictures of this that'd be great.

It was possible in 0.21 (haven't played before..)

Sure was...

I wont bother posting a picture, but it's perfectly possible

Why haven't I ever thought of this?! It's a perfect closeup vantage point for watching rockets liftoffs.

Just hold tight when stuff goes BOOM

Like this?

A bit confusing, it was not an crash however the rocket tilt over and stabilize but was unable to reach orbit. Yes its career mode with mechjeb unlocked for 1000 science on top of the advanced probes.

Ship will be used in an manned Moho mission, but I have to send up the lander with the crew as an separate launch.

There's a lot of secret stuff hidden in the space center that you can climb. Lots of stairs and ladders.

I just came up with a challenge for this: Land a lander on the flagpole lol.

This may sound stupid, but how do you climb it? Do you press F when you walk up to it? I tried, but nothing happened.

Hmmm, interesting. Try getting as close as possible. If that doesn't work, try just walking into the thing.

Anyways, to minimize post count, I'll get on to what I had in mind.

You know those round, grey and blue tanks all over the place? Actually, they have ladders you can climb! I've tried it, and they work! Isn't Squad awesome?

When you necro a thread that is more than a year out of date it's useful to know which version of KSP you are using.

In 0.25 when you walk up to the flagpole outside the astronaut centre (the only one I've tried) the, yes, the prompt to press 'F' appears and lets you climb the pole.

I was just disappointed you can't get off the ladder at the top and plant a real flag. Our have a way to "turn it on" so you can find KSP from orbit
