[QUOTE=shian;32265592]Connection timeout everytime I try to go in.[/QUOTE] It means your internet connection is too slow.

[QUOTE=DrasarSalman;32265878]It means your internet connection is too slow.[/QUOTE] Every bloody time

I found an android app called "KSP Orbit" which you can use to calculate speeds required to achieve orbit.

I like to think this is what NASA would do if they had the cash.

[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/mKjRe.gif[/IMG] SLOWER ROCKET! [editline]13th September 2011[/editline] [1940s newsreel voiceover] I present to you: The K-82 JUMBOMB ([b]J[/b]umbo [b]U[/b]nun[b]M[/b]anned [b]B[/b]ig [b]O[/b]verly [b]M[/b]assive [b]B[/b]omber)! [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/x2GXX.png[/IMG] At 47m (154ft), this behemoth is almost as large as the B-52! Watch now as our heroic pilots give a demonstration flight. Go get 'em, boys! [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/FFOj5.png[/IMG] As it reaches it's minimum altitude of 5km, the bombardier prepares all 11 bombs. Usually, the pilots cruise at 10km and are capable of going across any ocean! [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/DFIaO.jpg[/IMG] Bombs away! [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/PpC5s.jpg[/IMG] After 45 seconds, the bombs, now travelling at 77 m/s, explode. Should this have been an actual mission, the bombers would be long gone [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/OnwHn.jpg[/IMG] And now the JUMBOMB is showing its extreme handling and does a "Hot Airspace" approach.

Fucking forums and official site still not working. Help please.

features for 0.11 so far [quote] Estimated Release Date: Oct/10 New: * Overhauled Space Center terrain area in both flight and space center scenes. * Integrated Orbital Analysis/Propagation system. * In-Flight Time Compression. * Orbital "Map" View. * Orbit Display. * Improved Space Skybox Background. * Better terrain textures. * RCS (Reaction Control System) Module Part. * Advanced SAS Module Part: Uses input-enabled parts (like winglets and RCS) to stabilize flight, but applies no forces of it's own. * Splash-down effects. Bug Fixes:[/quote] Still no moon...yet D: [editline]14th September 2011[/editline] though I'm happy with the orbital map thing.

Oh hey, in flight time compression. The kermans invented the SETA drive?

The great thing about KSP is that its a small game, and it can run on laptops. Great when you're on long flights/roadtrips. [editline]14th September 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Pilotguy97;32281680]Find a better Internet provider.[/QUOTE] I have the best

[QUOTE=scratch (nl);32281856]Estimated Release Date: Oct/10[/QUOTE] Damn

Wow. How long as 0.10.1 been out?

[QUOTE=Pilotguy97;32283662]Wow. How long as 0.10.1 been out?[/QUOTE]What's in 0.10.1?

[QUOTE=cpt.armadillo;32283877]What's in 0.10.1?[/QUOTE] I believe The atmosphere no longer stops at aprox. 34,000m, but rather fades out until around 68,000m. Also some tweaks on the drag system. That's all I remember.

Shi, does that mean I no longer can have orbits at 50km D: [editline]14th September 2011[/editline] Well at least I can aerobreak.

NASA's new Space Launch System. Unfortunately there are no big enough solid rockets or powerful enough engines to launch this thing properly. [thumb]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/13781308/SLS.png[/thumb]

No more 34600 meter 28 minute orbits ;-;

[QUOTE=Twistshock;32265179]Do it again, except use cheat engine to accelerate it to 10-20x normal speed this time. That's how I did my 4 hour orbit in ~30 minutes.[/QUOTE] I did modify my booster to 1500 thrust, but even then I can't overthrust or get close to that, because the thrusters break off of the ship. (even with piles of supports)

I run it on a 1.8 Ghz 2 core, a radeon mobile hd1100, and 1024-256=my ram. all low graphics, runs at poor speeds, but it works!

[QUOTE=Winstonn;32295069]No more 34600 meter 28 minute orbits ;-;[/QUOTE]You can still have them, just you need a lot more fuel to maintain them.

This game runs like a charm on my lappie. Posting some quick specs. OS: Windows 7 home premium RAM: 4GB (Dont know the type) CPU: i7 Q720 @1.6 GHz GPU: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650 Basically a small and overall better version of my home PC (based on experience): OS: 32-bit Vista home premium RAM: 3GB ddr2 @ 332MHz CPU: Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 2.4GHz GPU: Sapphire Radeon HD 5670 arctic cooling edition with 1 GB GDDR5 Anyhow, tried something on my laptop: [img]http://i.imgur.com/nD9LV.jpg[/img] It actually worked somewhat.

[QUOTE=Neo Kabuto;32297284]You can still have them, just you need a lot more fuel to maintain them.[/QUOTE] That isn't an orbit, that's just flying using brute force.
