Question about Tylo

[cmd]

I have a question about Tylo

Is there a strange beeping anomaly on the surface?

because I crash landed here and heard the beeping just before I slammed into the surface and exploded

Ive not landed on Tylo before, I was just wondering if my landing location was of any significance?

The reason I ask is because so far I haven't been able to land safely as of just yet, though Ive had many crash landings now, and the beeping only once? and im just intrigued

or maybe its just the game going nuts?

The beeping was your swearing being censored.

haha ^

I answered my own question, It was such a mystery to me I loaded KSP up in VLC and found the soundfile, and its one of the chatterer sound effects. never heard that one on the game before.

lol whoops

If you are in the capsule, there is a single beep from touchdown.

Since you are reluctant to provide us with the location of the secret Rebel Base, I have decided to test this game's destructive power on your home planet of Alderaan......

(I'm sorry - for some reason I took a look at that pic and saw the Death Star).

Wasn't just a beep, definitely a beep de boop, and it was a touchdown explosion lol

but the sound played before I hit the ground you see.

In the Chatterer RBR GameData folder it was the sstv_01.ogg that played, the only time its played infact :-/

Maybe a side effect from having chatterer mixed with many other mods on KSP, only happened the once though

From what you are saying, i bet it was the SSTV transmission sound from the Chatterer plugin

[cmd]

I didn't know a red circle in paint would make all the difference

Now I'm going to think of the Death Star unconsciously when I see Tylo lol.

[cmd]

lol I think that is indeed the case

Wonder why it played though? I've not had it play before in hours and hours of game play, first time I'd heard it

[3mon]

In 0.21 i had it activate a couple times just when i touched down if i remember correctly, but not always. One of the times im almost certain it was an unmanned rover. However, i have no idea what it depends on

As for 0.22 i haven't installed Chatterer yet (reminds me it's about time!)

[cmd]

Maybe it was an emergency mayday signal automaticly made by chatterer on behalf of the poor kerbalnaughts in my space contraption lol

[cmd]

Yeah I installed it last week, It does deserve its place in the Most downloaded mods on space-port

Mods are just far too easy to get carried away with, the amount of times I've broke my games by installing mods over excessively, worth it though

My first landing on Tylo was a success, but I cheated and used the 48-7S engine. Then when I got there, I realized I didn't have enough Delta-v and cheated again, using up all of the fuel from my Vall lander to generate extra delta-v for my Tylo lander. I'm just a big cheat!

But as much as I know Tylo has no atmosphere to carry a beep, I still want to use my lander to check this out. Seems I landed it near the same crater. I must away, to check!!

edit: it doesn't have enough delta-v to get to the crater. I landed too far away from it...

Yeah I know that feeling, even though I was trying to land on Tylo, my mission was inevitable to fail

I have no idea how much fuel I should have packed on my lander, but it's definitely more than I took, I thought I had the moons of Jool sussed.

far from...

that was my master plan, that little lander to go from my laythe station via that tug thingy and land on that mofo! no chance! lol

Tylo deserves its whole special case lander like Laythe is gonna, I did not think this through very well

I'm pretty positive the beeping was chatterer though

You might find the missing info in

: He concludes that Tylo is basically Kerbin without atmosphere and builds and tests a lander based on that finding.
