What is your 'Specialty' in KSP?

[TYRT]

I've never failed when landing. Never

[kahlzun]

Ships designed for every situation.

A lander that can land safely on any world, an IP stage that can transport you to any world.

Launched from ground, I call it the "omni" system.

[possum]

I am good at CSM's. I now use them for orbital construction tugs in addition to normal uses. I have recently used the to build a interplanetary ship on orbit with some very unbalanced parts. That and launch escape systems.

[wolfedg]

My speciality is forgetting to open my solar panels and running out of energy

Or in my case, closing the solar panels for an interplanetary burn and forgetting to reopen them before time accelerating.

[mellojoe]

I don't know what my specialty IS, but I think I could list out what it ISN'T.

Things I am NOT good at:

• SSTO planes
  
• Planes
  
• Small rockets
  
• small lifters
  
• Big lifters
  
• Effecient rockets
  
• enormous fps-lag inducing rockets
  
• rovers
  
• landing softly on things
  
• landing at KSC
  
• keeping kerbals safe
  
• playing without quicksave
  
• effecient interplanetary transfers
  
• interplanetary transfers
  
• gravity assists
  
• planning ahead
  
• remembering to put parachutes on things
  
• remembering to put landing legs on things
  
• remembering to put solar panels on things
  
• making things look pretty
  
• remembering to put Kerbals in things before you launch
  
• remembering to fix staging before you launch
  

.... god, I LOVE THIS GAME

I like to do compact probes with a lot of complicated staging and (mostly) useless fairings delivered by overly complicated powered descents and suicide burns.

I like the way it looks.

[Ruinsage]

I want to specialize in multiple deployments (like having 10 probes on the same launch, stuff like that). But unfortunately, there isn't really a reason to do this atm. And I often want to do it on manned launches because I hate loosing kerbals, and I cant rewind when I do this (also, it sucks to tweak a small part of your design, and then find out that you only brought along one kerbal, because it resets them after you revert to space center, after having spend half an hour on it.

This game really needs more non-manned functionality

[stupid_chris]

I guess making parachutes and doing a lot of part clipping lifter is all what it is for me.

[LordOfTheOrbits]

Building good-looking, reusable launch vehicles, often inspired by either the falcon family or skylon. Another thing is forgetting to put solar panels on and/or extending them on my unmanned vehicles. Also landing crashing hundreds of km away from the place I want to land.

[Flymetothemun]

Aeroplanes and Space vehicles with too much fuel for the intended job.

[Nepos]

I am a specialist in the rare art formed called FAT FINGERS. If there is wrong key to be pressed next to the one I need to press I will press that wrong key. If there is a key that will send my mission into a death spiral near a key that make my mission an outstanding success. I will press the death spiral key,

[SkyRender]

I do a bit of everything these days, but the main overarching theme on all of my designs is sheer utility and functionality for the payload. Probably a side-effect of my logistics background, as well as my vested interest in engineering.

[Hecatonichosachoron]

I like to assemble space stations with (ker)manned orbital tugs. I've gotten pretty good at docking things.

Also, orange tank delivery anyone?

[NecroBones]

Also, orange tank delivery anyone?

Nice! That's a respectable delivery system.

[jmiki8]

Rovers & atmoshperic vehicles (=planes)

[Hecatonichosachoron]

Nice! That's a respectable delivery system.

Yeah, it's actually very stable! Was able to deliver full orange tanks to a refuelling station in a 200 km orbit. The robotic tug was supposed to be able to return to Kerbin and land intact, but the parachutes ended up ripping it apart.

But I'm tickled by the fact that the launcher uses flying buttresses to keep the payload stable.

[wooaa]

I mainly specialize in what I call carrier spacecraft. A spacecraft that can split up to smaller craft to accomplish a lot of different missions in one launch. An example is a craft with a main thruster body ( aprox 4000∆v), 2 micro probes ( 2500∆v but only 1 tone), and a glider (0∆dv). I send this to duna and I can set up a kethane scanner or communication aray depending on the mods I use. Other craft can send a handful of one way rovers to the mun. The down side of this method is that these craft tend to be rather heavy ( the one I described was a whopping 36 tones), and making one carrier is usually like design 4 or 5 individual spacecraft then glueing them together. Its hard but a lot of fun.

[HunterForce]

I like building what I call swarm ships. One main ship that, once in orbit of target, releases several micro drones to the planet and its moons. I hit up all of the jool system with one rocket once!

[Blaster]

SSTO's. I like the idea of a plane that can take off and go to space, so I keep working on making them better.

[Madrias]

General purpose spaceplanes. You know, SSTO's, VTOL's, multistage runway craft, carriers, light duty to heavy duty lifters. In my .21 save, I had a not-quite-space-shuttle that could lug a full orange tank plus docking ports and probe core into Kerbin Orbit, circularized at 200km. Haven't needed it lately, but I've done it.

I also like building planes that are flyable in IVA view. Yes, boring old atmospheric planes.

[xzxvrx]

I'm not the best at it, I like building space shuttles. Not shuttles that are super easy with tons of mods, but stock shuttles with working doors and such.

[tygoo7]

I really enjoy making landers that look cool and work great.

[Whackjob]

At the moment: Looking at other people's KSP pictures.

[StarVision]

Starships.

[Redrobin]
