Kerbal Space Program, or: "How many rockets can I slap onto this thing?" - Games

[QUOTE=Killerjc;31543516]there needs to be cities on kearth[/QUOTE] They're planned.

[QUOTE=Zombii;31543534]They're planned.[/QUOTE] And this is how we militarized the Kerbal Space Program.

Just make a backup of the mk1pod folder, and replace the model in mk1pod with the CM model that you want.

You sound depressed or something. [editline]5th August 2011[/editline] Cool plane though.

How to increase/decrease/off thrust.

With liquid thrusters its Shift for increase, Ctrl for decrease. To turn of decrease thrust all the way. You can't do it with SRB's. [editline]5th August 2011[/editline] I have a challenge for you budding Kerbals. Most rockets we build in the KSP usually have a wide base and slowly get smaller towards the top. I challenge you to build a rocket that has a small base and gets wider towards the top of the rocket. The hard part of course is balance the thrust so it can carry the weight at the top, but I should imagine once it gets going it will only get faster.

Second, ship may hover a little, but then all the fuel is empty. Third, if the ship hasn't failed and tipped over, everything is going as usual and the rocket shoots toward the sky right after it has blown up all the fuel tanks it left behind.

My rocket exploded on the launch pad :(

[QUOTE=booster;31537840]Now start building.[/QUOTE] Zenit looks like giant red pencil.

So, just build a silly backwards rocket as I'd like to call it. [url]http://gyazo.com/285e8051e910ac467aa2ed40358823ef.png[/url] Large for any rocket and just ready to explode on the launch pad, however it didn't! [url]http://gyazo.com/d0f04408fbb7117c141d073756f17d9b.png[/url] It traveled for an entire 10 units upwards. Then the linkage between the base SRB's and the fuel tanks separated and it flew up into the rest of the rocket causing a massive series of explosions. [editline]5th August 2011[/editline] This rocket didn't work either. [url]http://gyazo.com/4080d172415efb67aec2403aac777d7a.png[/url]

[QUOTE=PrusseluskenV2;31547826]Hey guys, what's the altitude required to break free from Kearth's gravity field? Also, does anyone have a pack of mods? ksp.com is down for me and I have to reinstall mods since I deleted some files by accident :c[/QUOTE] [url]http://www.kerbalspacerepository.com/home/[/url] Ninja'd

hehe. hehehe. "kaeiou"

[QUOTE=Skwee;31544981][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NEAm-S92vuo[/media] I made a rocket plane[/QUOTE] Best landing ever.

question about the parts folder. If i organize the custom parts into folders, will i still be able to use them?

I saw a guy playing KSP on the bus today. I was about to talk to him but then he minimized... to reveal a MLP desktop. NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE

I haven't played this in a while, worth it to get the item packs? [editline]5th August 2011[/editline] Some people making realistic awesome rockets with the item packs look really awesome though.

Has anyone made that ATLAS V in honor of JUNO's launch yet?

someone did it [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/35618484/KSP/Mods/Quabits/quabits_parts.png[/img] here [url]http://www.kerbalspacerepository.com/[/url] scroll down till you get to that image.

Holy shit.

Right you are. I changed it.

Link to that pack?

It's a mix of Silisko's parts and Sunday Punch v1.08. They're the two biggest parts packs in the game. Just get the repository and get them from there.
