A Well Thought of Easter Egg: One that has been in front of you every time you play!

The color of the Kerbals' skin is close to is #BADA55|\\|| <--- This Color in hexadecimal color.

I was just looking around the wiki and saw this.

While this may not be the exact hexadecimal color, it is still very close. It would be even more of a coincidence if Squad didn't intend on this.

Can a Squad employee confirm whether this was intended or not?

That is fantastic. I want to believe.

I do believe this was posted in the threads some considerable time ago.

Yeah, this was being talked about the first time I played the game (almost 2 years ago, with 0.19). And even then, KSP vets were poking fun at the newb's for pointing it out.

If the last part of your post was aimed at me, I wasn't poking fun at anyone, just stating a fact. If I had wanted to be negative, I would have suggested the OP did a search before posting such old news.

Fun fact: While not an official site by SQUAD, Kerbal Stuff's header is 186, 216, 85, the exact RGB representation of #BADA55.

While SQUAD might not of made it intentional, there's no mistake Kerbal Stuff did.

EDIT: And today, I learned that I am not an artist.

I use it for my KSP filmstrips in my signature.

position:absolute;

left:15px;

background-color:#bada55;

vertical-align:middle;

}

Old topic. This is a coincidence (unless SQUAD has been hiding it all these years) - anyone with experience in hexadecimal or typing messages in their calculator (did you know that 0.7734 spells "hello" upside-down?) can guess that pretty near any color has a similar color that can be expressed as some cool secret word, so the fact that SQUAD was lucky enough to pick one of the thousands of colors that's similar to #BADA55 isn't terribly shocking.

...Sorry, it's my nature to burst people's bubbles mercilessly. xD

Yeah, green is pretty close to green, I give you that.

Dont mean to burst bubbles, but yeah... I dont think its intended

I think Ive seen a thread like this a long time ago.
