I have no problem getting out of the atmosphere and far, far away, but I can never get into orbit.
Has anyone gotten past 4000 m/s without modded parts?
Apparently this is as far as I can go:

Can anyone tell me why there is a picture of a tree when you reach so far out you get the heap error (Like above)
I had a ship that could make it to 1000k in 4 minutes, but the update seems to have broken it so it falls apart at launch.
I don't like that very much at all.

All I know its something to do with the graphics.

And this my game was at 1.07GB usage when it crashed.
[QUOTE=jeimizu;31120674]Sure. The bottom part that carries it to glide height is just one solid booster. You probably want to change that if you really want to get a good distance.
Uploading a video of it now. (50 minutes remaining)

I love how I can always make it glide at a steady height of 200 m
I threw together these tiny liquid parts: a tiny engine and tank perfect for giving your final stage orbiter a bit of adjustment :smile:

Currently balancing out the amount of fuel and thrust these guys have.
Here's a challenge for all you guys: Get a rocket 2500+ meters into the sky, and then detatch that rocket and use another stage to crash your rocket into one of the buildings. Piloted missile simulator.
+1 point for every 500 meters after 2500 meters
+5 for having some object fall from your rocket instead of your own rocket hitting a building, and all crew members surviving
+100 for revolving around the earth once before striking a building
I rigged the liquid engine to go super fast, so now i'm going 161,000 m/s and am currently 200,000 kilometers away from kearth.
Almost 20,000 kilometers in 2 minutes.

Anyone notice this single grey clod floating in space?

This warrants investigation, I'm going to try and fly towards it.

Have fun trying to get to the skybox texture.

Go for it! Just keep all of your attention on the flight for 5-8 hours.

GL with that, I'm 1.5 million kilometers out and it's still the same size.

I found out the counter rolls over to 0K after 1 million kilometers.
It just shows 500,000 because of the roll over. I hit nearly 2 and half million meters per second before the rocket detached.

I want cities to be added so bad, then I could created missles to crash into them.
Launching a rocket with one type of wing causes it to loop uncontrollably, but launching one with both types of wings seems to stop that. And that discovery lead me to this design:

You can't really control the glider all that well once it's out, you kinda have to let it roll around randomly until it's in the position you want, then lock it into that position with SAS until you need to shift it again.
I just had a 45 minute glide from 1000 meters.
I'd love to see a similar game where you could design regular aircraft.
I downloaded some warp nacelles from the forum, but they're basically explosion fuel. Has anyone actually used them?

They're resistant little buggers.
Holy shit, I got off my ass and used the extra parts mod. I finally made a atmospheric jet. Unfortunately it has horrible fuel efficiency, it only gets about maybe 3000-5000m from the launch pad, but its incredibly controllable, safe to fly even at 200 meters from the ground.

Upload it right now.
You can even just open it with notepad and copy-paste it to pastebin for maximum convenience.
Here's the Abominator Mk4 as an example:

Just pop that in KSP/Ships and give it a .craft ending and you're golden.

Uploaded, please excuse my horrible spelling. I'm working on the mark 2, using unmodded engines I hope to get it to go around the world eventually at a cruising altitude of 1 kilometer.
[QUOTE=RR_Raptor65;31118877]Do joysticks work or is the input config just a placeholder? It reads my joystick in the launcher but I can't control my rocket with the joystick in the game.[/QUOTE]
Same's happening with me. Anyone else had any luck? I haven't seen any posts concerning joysticks.
