[QUOTE=finbe;32119311]10.0 is going to have a moon in it and it's going to be released pretty soon since there is already a experimental version out.[/QUOTE] Will that require preorder?

[QUOTE=MadPro119;32111295]Does exploit count as using this to recreate the Saturn V? [editline]4th September 2011[/editline] Flew this whole flight path on full throttle with only liquid rocket boosters. [img]http://i.imgur.com/9vrT4.png[/img] [editline]4th September 2011[/editline] I think I may be in orbit for the first time![/QUOTE] Did he implement path recording?

[QUOTE=Zombii;32119371]Did he implement path recording?[/QUOTE] Nope, I drew that myself.

[QUOTE=finbe;32119311]10.0 is going to have a moon in it and it's going to be released pretty soon since there is already a experimental version out.[/QUOTE] Err...right now we are on .10, 10.0 will be years from now... And the moon is slated for something around .13 or later. [QUOTE=MadPro119;32119343]Will that require preorder?[/QUOTE] All versions will be free for the coming months. I think they only plan on charging when there is a full feature beta (which is quite a long way off)

How do you guys fly your planes? Mine always jsut do loops and I cant control them. Should I use Sas?

[QUOTE=MadPro119;32119694]How do you guys fly your planes? Mine always jsut do loops and I cant control them. Should I use Sas?[/QUOTE] The wings are fickle, so you need to balance them and also make sure that you don't apply too much power.

So I uh...built a biplane rocket sled...

Everyone knows you haven't built a proper rocket until Jeb is screaming.

Wait, is it possible to launch from the runway?

[QUOTE=Zombii;32121292]Wait, is it possible to launch from the runway?[/QUOTE] Nope. [editline]4th September 2011[/editline] This sounds so sweet for during the actual campaign "Space Center Facilities can be destroyed by crash-landing onto them, and fixing them will cost you." You will have to think about your rockets falling back to earth and maybe get over water or use a parachute.

I hate the bug, it takes forever to load.

Are you guys posting all of the latest parts packs in the OP, or do I have to dig for them? :v:

[QUOTE=MadPro119;32121389]You will have to think about your rockets falling back to earth and maybe get over water or use a parachute.[/QUOTE] I by some reason actually do that, I like to give all my side boosters and stages a safe landing.

[img]http://localhostr.com/file/bt2G4Ye/screenshot2.png[/img] I love how they laugh when they crash into the ground most of the time.

Is it possible to get to space?

[QUOTE=Trounark;32126953]Is it possible to get to space?[/QUOTE]um

[QUOTE=Trounark;32126953]Is it possible to get to space?[/QUOTE] Only if you really believe!

[QUOTE=Trounark;32126953]Is it possible to get to space?[/QUOTE] You're in space right now.

What I'd like to see: KSSP, Kerbal Sea/Sub Program, will they sink or float, or break apart in rough sea conditions and be able to take the stresses of moving underwater.

[QUOTE=DrasarSalman;32127738]Did you do that with vanilla parts!? That's amazing![/QUOTE] Yup, it isn't that hard when you can master liquid thrusters.

I just go to 325k altitude, how high do I gotta go to escape the planet's gravity?

[QUOTE=Trounark;32128207]I just go to 325k altitude, how high do I gotta go to escape the planet's gravity?[/QUOTE] Not a question of how high, but how fast. Usually you have to go ~2,400 m/s (this is from my experience at orbit, which I usually do around 60km) to reach Vescape. [editline]5th September 2011[/editline] Speaking of orbit, I just made my first payload carrier. Pictures soon!

I wish there were an in-game orbital calculator.

Anyone know why my game takes forever to do anything?
