Captinfannin Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 My greatest achievements so far have been getting a probe to Moho and building a aesthetically pleasing Munar base. This game is so fun, can't stop thinking about it. Here's a picture of my Mun base, the Munatic Asylum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Specialist290 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Welcome to the forums! Glad to see you've been enjoying yourself. That certainly looks like it took quite a bit of patience and time to assemble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starwhip Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Wow. When I can rep people again (I've overloaded my counter), you'll be the first. Incredible base.(I suck at bases. )Welcome to the KSP Forum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cirocco Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Welcome to the forums!also, you built THAT with under 100 hours of experience? That's pretty impressive! I have over 300 hours on the counter and I've never bothered even trying a planetary base, let alone one that was assembled on-site with docking ports!well done to you sir, have some rep!

DMSP Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 (edited) Welcome to the forums, and i'm glad to see someone else who can build really cool bases! (I love bases, Laythe, and Bases on Laythe!)Good luck, but you will not need it, cause the community here rocks! Have fun![Edit]: Here's the base!:Balancing it was a big challenge! (I used a sky-crain and I balanced it with that!) Edited January 21, 2015 by DMSP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norpo Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Now THAT'S an impressive base. My bases are generally just a tall lander with a science lab that doesn't have enough fuel to get back to Kerbin. I'm currently working on trying to make a base on Moho (with a ton of mods), but it's proving to be a challenge...</shameless selfpromotion> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captinfannin Posted January 21, 2015 Author Share Posted January 21, 2015 (edited) Welcome to the forums nice base there, is it all stock?Rep anywayThanksMostly stock, but not all stock. I used infernal robotics to make the docking ports on the core of the base extend, to make it easier to connect the separate modules, and I have KAS, but I didn't use it on anything except the rover. Also, a few of the parts are from Tantares, I like the way they look.Thank you everyone for all the love . I'm glad to see you all like my munar base, though it didn't go as smoothly as pictured. There is quite a bit of derbis lying about... Edited January 23, 2015 by Captinfannin Combining two posts. Mentioned KAS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starwhip Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 No big deal. In the future, it is better to select "Edit Post" than to try to post again.I've had my browser flip out and post the same thing three times, don't feel that bad. I feel totally weird asking this, but,How did you stick the modules together?I've managed to make some fairly nice base modules, but my crawlers are always too tall to fit under the damn things.

Captinfannin Posted January 23, 2015 Author Share Posted January 23, 2015 First what I did was built a plan in the VAB of what my Munar base would look like and made sure all the landing legs where aligned. I was planning on using rovers and KAS to drag the modules together, but my rovers couldn't apply enough force, so I used my landing rockets to get close to the base in short hops. I brought a bunch of extra fuel on my modules so that wasn't a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northstar1989 Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Nice base! To this day, I *STILL* haven't built any actual multi-part surface bases (I'm more in love with reusable launch systems and orbital stations). The closest I come is when I hook up a few modules with KAS pipes/winches and call it a "base".Regards,Northstar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
