Nice to know you're autistic.
Woooooow. I have not played this for months! By the looks of things, I have a shitton of new features to learn about and whatnot. It's like having a whole new game I guess.

Will the solar panel look like solar panels in later version
We should set up a collaborative FP save via SVN or something so that we can stick millions of satellites in orbit at once, all designed by different people.
Fairly sure that someone posted an idea similar to this in either the last thread or the one before that.

[quote]Well, I have some cool news here.
I've decided to try my hand at a random naming system here, to generate Kerbal names on the fly, out of a set of syllables and sounds that are thrown together in any random combination.
I've defined a list for first syllables and second syllables, and I set up a scheme to generate names by combining any two entries.
What follows are a few random runs. I have to admit, I was pretty impressed by the results:
SUDDENLY ALL THE NAMES
Don't mind the repeats here... This is the output of a test run of a hundred and fifty purely random combinations.
I like where this is going. There are a lot of real names that come out of this list, and the ones that aren't real are pretty funny.
And interestingly enough, this system generates names that appear to come from any number of ethnic origins, which is pretty cool in it's own right.
This should be good for a whole lot of combinations here, and later on we could add a three-syllable generator, and a middle name one as well, further increasing the amount of names that can come out of it.

It is official. Pelf is god of Solar panels and Radiators.

Actually, the Flight Director would be Gene Kerman. :)
Well, I'm mostly happy with the names for now, so I can now get on with other things, like actually generating entire random Kerbals.
What I'm planning on doing here is keeping a master crew roster list, that is globally accessible in any point of the game. The list will be initially populated with Jeb, Bob and Bill, so logically, these three will be the first to go up. If you then launch a secondary mission, the game will auto generate three new crewmembers, with random stats (for now), and automatically assign them to the new ship.
That is because we don't have a proper astronaut complex yet, we have no proper way to let you assign crewmembers manually to a mission. So instead of doing a rush job to get that in now, it's best to make it minimally functional at this point, and then do a proper job of it on a dedicated update. With this solution in place, we can at least make sure no two kerbals with the same name will be generated at the same time. :)
What I want to happen now is, if you terminate a mission with Bill, Jeb and Bob, they will again become available at the roster. But if you crash or otherwise unsuccessfully terminate a flight with any others, they will be deleted and new ones generated in their stead.
I would also like to add a way for you to rename crewmembers, or in some way make them 'favorites'... IDK if it'll be possible to add that explicitly just now, so you'll probably have to make sure you don't kill the ones you like.
Cheers

Thread is stagnant.
anyone who seriously wants to play the VA capsule and give serious feed back Pm me your email and i will add you to the DB if i trust you enough :P
also, sega I need your email to add you so you can edit the text.
Cool shit about the names!
Gene is an obvious name for flight director of course.

What makes you say that?

[QUOTE=HarvesteR]Hi again,
I've made a new development here, not so much in terms of coding, but in a conceptual level.
I was having real trouble figuring out how to handle placement of the kerbal models in the scene, and organize all that in a sensible and coherent way.
Then it hit me, and I think you guys are going to like this:
I call it internal space, and in a nutshell it's another one of my scene-within-a-scene schemes. Here's how it's going to work:
All crew-accessible vessel parts will define their own 'internal space'. Internal space is yet another reference frame, but this one is static (therefore relative to the ship), and centered on the root part of a vessel. Inside this space, parts can then define positions for crew seats, and those positions will be used to spawn the crew.
The neat thing about this is, it not only solves the seating arrangement issue, it also makes way for internal views.
Better yet, because each crew-accessible part will create it's own internal space, what we will actually be enabling here are dynamic internal views, that are as big as there are crew-able parts on your ship. What more, each internal space is essentially a cockpit module, so this paves a direct path into space stations you can actually move around in.
Now, before we get ahead of ourselves, I want to make it perfectly clear that we are talking feature support only at this point. We don't have time to add internal views and interior models for this update, but now at least we can say we know how we are going to do it.
Cheers

WOAH. Mind = blown. I am now so stoked for the future of KSP.
