I wonder how K&W's shuttle is going.
[QUOTE=MC3craze;34217104]5m iirc.[/QUOTE] umm..... actually... [QUOTE=LordCrypto;34217113]Okay, so it won't look too silly then strapped on top of a 3m launch vehicle.[/QUOTE] you might want to use two.... or three.... it is an ssto after all :D
[QUOTE=MC3craze;34217122]I wonder how K&W's shuttle is going.[/QUOTE] Have they posted any screenshots?
Oh, and I'm using your Durgun on the interplanetary craft.
[QUOTE=MC3craze;34217227]Oh, and I'm using your Durgun on the interplanetary craft.[/QUOTE] oh? that is a good idea. should voice special parachutes.
[QUOTE=Pelf;34217221]Have they posted any screenshots?[/QUOTE] Ones in Winstonn's modelling program. (3DS Max is my educated guess) I like Autodesk's products myself.

I think he is adding RCS? i showed him Boolean in 3ds max so i am sure there are some things he wants to change with it :) [editline]14th January 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=MC3craze;34217251]Ones in Winstonn's modelling program.

Oh, cardboard, your Failcan9+2x3 .craft tips towards the tower almost immediately.
I use Inventor.
[QUOTE=LordCrypto;34217273]Oh, cardboard, your Failcan9+2x3 .craft tips towards the tower almost immediately.[/QUOTE] odd. never had problems with it. I dislike how kerbal loads crafts differently on different machines.
Spitballing here, I think it has something to do with how long it takes the computer to load it.
[QUOTE=LordCrypto;34217340]Spitballing here, I think it has something to do with how long it takes the computer to load it.[/QUOTE] use the regular heavy perhaps.

Aye aye captain
[QUOTE=MC3craze;34217104]5m iirc.[/QUOTE] That's insane.

Should make some explosive bolt scaffolding for it so it won't fall over.
Yay i finaly got KSP to download :smile:
On the topic of the forums: Nova is an attention-whore. He wants people to fret over his "leaving". Personally, I say good riddance. And on the topic of the game: Holy HELL, Box; that looks AMAZING! And I Love the whole assembling-the-internals-thing.

I've noticed a slight change in orbit if you just wait. Maybe you'll get close enough to slow down.
[QUOTE=Sgt Doom;34221861]I can't remember what height the atmosphere ends, but your orbit might decay enough after a while until you can enter the atmosphere.[/QUOTE] I let my capsule orbit about twenty times, watching the PE/AP for any degradation... it stayed the same. :(

PROBLEM SOLVED! Maybe... [IMG]http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n315/Gubru/2012-01-15_00082.jpg[/IMG] [b]I redesigned the LEM. She may be tall, ugly and unwieldy, but it works, and more importantly...[/b] [IMG]http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n315/Gubru/2012-01-15_00083.jpg[/IMG] [b]...features the patented "Kerbol Return Stage"! ;)[/b] ...So hopefully this solves my problems. Gonna go check now.
That rocket engine is so weak it takes a long time to slow down. I crashed on the mun twice before accepting that a lander configuration like yours just doesn't work. You need more fuel for the return flight and a stronger rocket engine to slow down quickly if you judged the distance wrong.
