Hi I'm new

[Rus-Evo]

Hi there all,

Ive been playing for getting on for a year now (and reading this forum for a while too). I finally decided I wanted to contribute to thread so here I am!

Game philosophy: I like to play stock only at the moment and I like to do more complicated explorations rather than a quick landing and return home.

Biggest achievment: Either getting to Jool or lifting 4 orange tanks to orbit to use as modular fuel sections for my modular interplanetary ships (500 tonnes and laggy when leaving orbit).

Future plans: Decending a Mohole in an RCS sled that I have been testing.

Future plans: If the asteroid thing is free to play I would like to put one in a very very low munar orbit before building a base on it (if such a thing is possible).

What is it about this game that I enjoy watching other people like Scott Manley doing things on you tube as well as doing it myself!!! Never had that for a game before!

Welcome aboard! That's a very nice intro format you've got there. I'm greatly impressed by your ability to lift 4 orange tanks... I can't do that yet!

[Rus-Evo]

Thank you,

I could only lift 5 half sized tanks until I saw the thread called "Pancake vs Sausage" (or something like that). And I realized my tendency to build wide rockets needed to be taken a few steps further. I had actually wasted months in the game trying to create a super heavy lifter, then I read that thread and got four tanks into orbit after only an hour. The other secret was creating a central core of super strong fueselage sections (the ones that look like jet fuel), everything just strutted on to that!!

Welcome to the forums!

You have awesome achievements. I haven't lifted that lot of orange fuel tanks in orbit yet.

[Rus-Evo]

Some newer parts are coming soon which may help!!!

[Tex]

Ah yes, I can't wait until we have the SLS-style stuff. I'm seeing simply massive new things coming...

It's good to have you! Welcome to the forums.

I've been rushing around my current save, trying to finish all that I want to do before the new update forces me to start over. It'll be hard to give up that Munar space station I've built, but I'm excited about all the new stuff we'll be getting.

[Rus-Evo]

Why do you think it will kill your station?

[JumpsterG]

It's entirely possible the save may continue to work (though I think it was said that asteroids would not spawn in old saves, only new games), but I'd rather start career over to properly enjoy the rebalancing and new features.

I'm one of those gamers that enjoys starting over from scratch. Every time, you get to approach the game in a new way.

Still, just a few more biomes to hit with my on-station science lander. In my head, there's a race against time before the MunStation project's funding is cut and it must be deorbited.
