OMG, post videos!

Guys ever heard of the ferram4 mod "The colliders strike back"?

With this you can have interaction with animated stuff, on the same vessel.

Another thing that should be a toggle IMHO.

I haven't heard of that but it sounds like a recipe for explosions. :)

Not really if you do it right.

Here's an example, mods used: procedural parts & procedural fairings, infernal robotics & my own expansion.

Without "Colliders Strike Back" the pistons would fall right through the cylinders.

Yes, I use Procedural Fairings for cylinders and piston mantles. They too have a collider if you know how to tweak them.

Well the Mosquito got swatted, it suffered from the overheating bug one too many times, lots of radiators and fairings seem to induce it. Maybe after 1.05

That's... unfortunate.

Many ideas, ambitions and creativity ruined in this game by bugs, issues and unfixed and lingering glitches.

Wow! That looks pretty darn slick. :)

Thanks. :)

Its almost finished now. Just got some wobble to kill. Turns a bit slow so more reaction wheels as well

260 parts. Can take about 530 tons of payload from LKO to LMO. About 225 To LDO.

Holy crap. Did you launch it in one go, and how far do you intend to get it?

So I simplified my Lancaster a little bit in hopes of lowering the part count..

I have to admit, it is WAY too fat.. a consequence of using Mk3 parts.

You guys are doing such cool stuff I am so jealous, especially after the mosquito was swatted by the heat bug.

Anyway I have been hanging out with this lady, and we decided to get serious, it was a beautiful ceremony.

The Kerbes all 124, rotating ring, launchable parts of her.

Do you use a mod to make the smoke trail like that??

You must not have "accounted for the excess oxygen you've been exhaling". You should rebuild it just as soon as your ears stop ringing ;)

HAHAHHAHAHAHA LOL! i love that you got it! that means i am doing something good! well it was on purpose since i will be doing some changes to the script to match the KSP style and limitations (like not being able to grow anything - making it stock only)

and majorjim : it's not the heat bug it's clipping all the way- i made a mine out of clipped parts which makes the crafts explode when staged

Well apparently if you rip off the side of a Co-102 or an Fr-104, it makes an epic SSTO! Throw in a crew cabin and VTOL capability as well. Its not very long range but it can take 4 crew members to orbit.

Handling is a bit touchy. It only wants to fly upside down. Any ideas how to stop it doing this?

My guess is it's all the wing panels creating drag that is oriented towards the side with the most panels, which in your case is the bottom. The draggiest parts want to go last, so it rolls over.

Also, I have found that a hull shape is good for lifting, with the wings at a positive angle, which makes it want to rest naturally on the lowest point of the hull. Wit yours being the opposite, that may be the problem.
