My first attempt at Bill Challenge - 26,3 G

[qeveren]

My attempt at the Bill Challenge: +31.5G. That must\'ve sucked. ;D

[Ebu]

qeveren: Beating the record! We have a new champion ;D, nice try :thumbup:

[Thinine]

I found myself doing this accidentally before I knew how to get into orbit. My personal record is 40.6G, but I don\'t have a screenshot. I just go straight up with as much velocity as possible and then retro just enough I don\'t escape the planet.

[Thinine]

41 G

How can I attach a screenshot?

[Radion]

41 G

How can I attach a screenshot?

Attachments have been disabled temporarily. If you want to get the image on here, you can upload it to a picture hosting service (tinypic, imagur, etc.) and get the direct link. Take that link, and enclose it within these tags: (press the little Mona Lisa next to the hyperlink button above the posting box), and spoiler it with the nuclear button.

Also, I find the Jeb Challenge\'s rule that at least one must survive a bit misleading, because in game, either none die or they all do.

[Thinine]

Here we go:

[infatuatedPP]

Going for the bob challenge using the jellycube weapons pack and C7.

Sorry for small text, it says 75.7 Gee

[Ebu]

Also, I find the Jeb Challenge\'s rule that at least one must survive a bit misleading, because in game, either none die or they all do.

I´m not sure. I remember that only 1 of my crew survived, when I had some older version. Thanks for your report. I\'ll try to discover the truth

Thinine: This score is for Bill, Bob or Jeb Challenge?

infatuatedPP: Awesome! ;D

[Jarnis]

Been there, done that.

http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/index.php?topic=2730.msg28204#msg28204

My best is 234.5G (fully stock parts) and it didn\'t even win that time around. Best one was 273.8Gs using stock parts.

So you young padawans still have much to learn...

[Kryten]

That\'s with the old system, which just gave peak G-forces; you now have to sustain for a while before it\'ll show up.

[Evilchicken]

This is my entry for the billy challange, this was done in 13.2, but the physics is still the same.

This is my ship.

Me getting a good run up.

Intial speed just before atmosphere. Yes, it is over 9000!

After the worst of the gee force.

And safe landing.

By using v=u+at where, v=final velocity, u= intial velocity, t=time and a=acceleration. i calculate an averege acceleration of 846.8 m/s^-2.

[Ebu]

Jarnis: Show us your new force, master Yoda

Evilchicken: Oh, what a flight! Last thing we need is your Flight Results screen to find out the exact value of your Gee Force

[Evilchicken]

I don\'t have the flight results I ended the flight before taking the picture, the calculated value of aceleration will be lower than the peak acceleration and you can check the numders by using screenshots 3 and 4, so all thinks consider I guess its fair.

[Ebu]

Evilchicken: Pictures don\'t show Gee Force value we need . Personally, I don\'t have calculator for this. Thanks for understanding. But I\'m sure you are able to make it again and with better results ;D.

[Evilchicken]

I wasn\'t getting the best values from the flight result with a straight down flight, so I modified the flight path to increase deccelertaion time.

New flight path.

Flight results. still not quiet the values I would have calculated.

[Ebu]

And they survived ! Just tell us - was that Bill, Bob or Jeb Challenge? If you don\'t know, look at the first post of our topic with all specifications and rules. Good job :thumbup:

[Evilchicken]

This was completely stock parts, the same ship as the first post, so this is the bill challange. First place win!

[Ebu]

Evilchicken: Added.

[Nooblet68]

Flight results. still not quiet the values I would have calculated.

Wow. 93.3g\'s Stock?

[Thinine]

Mine was the Bill challenge. I suppose now I need to get some acceleration before reentry and not just free fall.

[r4m0n]

Here is my first try with my Neo dV spacecraft (stock only, categorize as you will 8)):

And yeah, I\'m that guy from the other thread =P

[Thinine]

My second try on the Bill challenge, first with acceleration before reentry. 110.1G.

[Peewee]

For the Jeb competition, do you -have- to land on the mun, or is it optional?

If it\'s optional, I\'m fairly certain that this .cfg mod wins by default. http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/index.php?topic=8069.0

(accelerates the pod from 0ms to ~5.56 × 10^10 times the speed of light in one physics tick, even if it doesn\'t show \'most gee force\')
