Kerbal Space Program

[Masada]

Anyone know if the mods work with the mac version

[McDethWivFries]

dunno, doesn't appear to have any folder structure like the Win version does so dont know where to load the parts. If you find out, let me know (o;

[McDethWivFries]

Well . . . was escape velocity attained?







sadly yes . . . need moar fuel to turn that speed into a return )o:

oh yeah, the funky trees? got a 'vram used up' error some time this morning when it was around the 2000M mark

[McDethWivFries]

KSP v0.11.0 is out Kerbalanauts! Get your download ON!!!!

[McDethWivFries]

Last week to pre-order if you haven't yet. I did this morning and it cost $9.61AUD so not bad for a great little game. Stop throwing your cash at the screen and get your plastic fantastic out NOW!

[AintWarHeLL(hehe)]

yes its a fun little game

[McDethWivFries]

So how many of you have landed on the Mun yet?

is mars in this game ? if so go there next , only take about 5 years each way

[McDethWivFries]

Dont think so, think they may be adding other planets, but they also have a timewarp feature now (cheating much!) so it could really take you minutes if you plan it just right.

[McDethWivFries]

Well my Karbalanauts are currenty stuck in an eliptical orbit . . . have the hang of orbiting now, but didn't have quite enough fuel this time (was aiming for the Mun but had my trajectory wrong) so didn't quite make it back. So far with gratuitous use of timewarp i've clocked up 28hrs flight time in about 30-40mins (o:

Heaps of fun in this game Im LOL when the rocket was launching whilst those 3 crews appeared K.I.A on the screen after big booooooom. what a fail! Maybe i should go back and read the tutorial.

[jamo128]

who needs a tutorial, its only rocket science.

[McDethWivFries]

Up to 0.16.x at the mo however it appears 0.17 will be out sometime soonish. Two planets now (Mun & Minimus), EVAs, proper space planes and lots of joy! (o:

ive only got the demo, but managed to just miss the moon! its bloody hard

[Zardez]

How Long did it take for you to land on the mun mcdeath? I've been playing a few hours (probably getting close to 10) and have only
Managed elliptical orbit Of kerbin twice

[McDethWivFries]

I haven't even gotten close to the mun yet let alone minimus. my orbits always seem to be on a different plane to those of mun & minimus and never the twain shall they meet.

[jamo128]

well, i packed my rocket with so much fuel cause i thought i needed it to get to the moon, turns out my ship is somewhere out near were Pluto should be :L

[Zardez]

I have two in orbit of the sun, and a couple orbiting earth, I struggle to get the path too meet mun as well, always run out of fuel

[SamEEE]

Head towards 270 from horizon. Remember not to hammer straight out of earth but gradually burn towards the horizon. Wait until you are line up and coming around the earth and use the Earth to slingshot out and away towards the moon. The moon has a lot less gravitational force than the Earth so you can't go hammering past it and expect it to pick you up no drama.

Too much speed? Set the controls to the heart of the sun.

I landed on the mun yesterday. Just so you know. First mun mission.
