The Kerbal Skydiving Challenge


Recommended Posts

I took my new SSTO/spaceplane to Laythe and made a two man jump there, had LAZOR installed with a 5Km vanishing point and got both skydivers and the spaceplane back on the island again.

AWESOME. Sorry about the slow reaction time on this. I'll add you to the Scoreboard shortly.

OK, so your score is:

+20 points for "Don't try this at home kids"

+17 points for max altitude on Laythe

+10 points for >3 km precision

+6 points for 2 Kerbals

= 53 points (tying your previous score, but with a cool Distinction)

By the way, that was a really cool video. Could I have permission to use the video as the demonstration for how to complete the challenge?

Imgur emptied all my earlier Albums when I choose to "Hide" the images (I wish it had warned me it would mess up my albums beforehand)- so I need a new demonstration of the concept, and my current save is in 0.24 Career Mode- which means I don't have KAS installed yet as last I checked it hadn't been updated/balanced for 0.24 (I would also prefer if I waited until Firespitter or KSP Interstellar were updated as well- as to save money I would probably use an electric propeller or thermal turbojet plane for the paradrop)

Thanks, you can of course use the video, I'm glad you enjoyed it. I don't often get out as far a Jool these days but that trip to Laythe was worth it :)

Awesome. :cool:

You should really try to get out by Jool more, especially now that Contracts are implemented in 0.24- I bet you could get some really lucrative contracts to plant a flag on Laythe, for instance.
