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

[QUOTE=-Xemit-;31107168]Guys, how do you return from orbit? It got kinda boring after three and a half hours.[/QUOTE] Turn the rocket around and thrust in reverse. You'll slow down and be pulled in by earth's gravity.

This run is starting to get boring! Started when i was about to go to bed, and now, 12 hours later, it's going in 9298,0 m/s and showing no signs of slowing down at all.. [URL=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/13/slooow.jpg/][IMG]http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/9595/slooow.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

[QUOTE=RayvenQ;31107152]How high does it have to be to switch from M to k, at 400,000m it's still on m and not 400 k or somesuch.[/QUOTE] Until 999,999m. Then it comes 1000K.

This makes my GPU go nuts during the construction phase, the fan spins up to loud levels (Crysis loud). Doesn't happen during flight though. I'm forcing vsync, but that isn't helping apparently.

Anyone want to share their rockets with us all? I cant get them up above 100k meters without killing them [img]http://cdn.fpcontent.net/fp/emoot/saddowns.gif[/img]

I built one that flew nearly perfectly (536,000+ meters), but then I slightly adjusted the position of a booster and it reset all the stages. It's pretty boring though, so I don't think it's really worth sharing (3 boosters + 3 fuel tanks and an engine)

Why do decouplers make everything so floppy, why can't I launch my ridiculously tall rocket without it flopping all over the place? >:(

The more stages the better! [video=youtube;CgfwhtZeY70]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CgfwhtZeY70[/video] Also a nice challenge: build your rockets with no engines other than the tiny solid fuel :v:

So, would anyone be interested in like, a tiny engine and fuel tank for the command module? That you could attach without it looking like you've got the rest of a spaceship stuck on your back. Hohoh, it's already been done?

i want a huge fucking orange liquid fuel container that is used on the space shuttle

[QUOTE=Anteep2;31108586]i want a huge fucking orange liquid fuel container that is used on the space shuttle[/QUOTE] ...There's the big orange fuel tanks?

anyone elses game stuck on loading? got the new patch with all the mods. left it loading for over 3 hours and came home and it was still loading, it worked fine before the patch though

[img]http://filesmelt.com/dl/back.PNG[/img] I don't think they will be coming back :( Edit: 3000k now Woho ! And i still run at 2000 m/s (now what :( )

Gah, I wish I could texture better. Everything I make looks like it comes from 1999. :(

I hope this game gets Ion Thrusters... just because they're the coolest sounding real thing I have ever heard of.

[QUOTE=krail9;31108125]The more stages the better! Also a nice challenge: build your rockets with no engines other than the tiny solid fuel :v:[/QUOTE] just tried the challenge damn ! it's hard to build something like that

[QUOTE=LukeTim;31108964]I hope this game gets Ion Thrusters... just because they're the coolest sounding real thing I have ever heard of.[/QUOTE] Hnnng... I have a model set up for that, and could make an Ion Thruster provided you're able to put up with a pretty terrible model, and unless that guy gets back to me, terrible textures as well. D:

Does anyone know anything about editing the .cfg's for parts? I've been playing around with them, and one thing I can't seem to figure out how to change is how 'strongly' parts are attached to each other.

I hope they add some "not so real" thrusters semi real like fusion thrusters or something

Huh, apparently the command pod has built in fuel. Taken from the CFG: // --- fuel tank parameters --- fuel = 500 dryMass = 0.4 fuelMass = 0.008 I did not know this.
