Re: Share Your Epic Fails

Earlier today I was down in my base grabbing supplies for fishing. I accidentally dropped some rotten flesh and quickly picked it back up. Went outside and fished for the dawn, and then came back inside and was working on expanding a new room. Well, apparently one of the wolves I had just tamed a co...

Re: Better Than Starting Manned (Flower's WIP KSP mod )

Still time for feedback from people too tonight if anyone has any last minute input to add to the mix. You had probably guessed, but I'm definitely liking what FAR brings to the table as far as game-play addition and aerodynamics. An update on my progress: Finished doing gravitational scans of Kerb...

Re: Better Than Starting Manned (Flower's WIP KSP mod )

Yeah, that makes sense to me. The two biggest things that struck me where when my cockpit kept ripping off my booster on parachute opening (doing my initial high altitude flight) and any time I try and stage a rocket it gets all funny. Not a systemic problem with all joints. But I also found ways ar...

Re: Better Than Starting Manned (Flower's WIP KSP mod )

My apologies. I thought you might be someone I had sparred with recently. No worries, was just a little taken aback. One thing I've noticed is that rockets seem a little more wobbly with FAR installed, which could be directly related to FAR, or a symptom of building taller rockets due to the aerody...

Re: Better Than Starting Manned (Flower's WIP KSP mod )

ExEvolution I presume? Not even sure what you mean by that, but I feel like I should be offended. I'm just stating my experience and opinion on what you have done. I have always played vanilla KSP and just got back into it a few days ago (hadn't played since .21), and one of my biggest problems wit...

SSTO?
My guess is he means single stage to orbit, referenced here: http://wiki.kerbalspaceprogram.com/wiki ... e-to-orbit

Re: Better Than Starting Manned (Flower's WIP KSP mod )

Just started playing with prerelease 3 tonight, and finished all of tech 3 (or 4, depending if you are counting from 0 or 1), the one with Advanced Rocketry, and found everything very enjoyable. FAR makes a great addition to BTSM, with encouraging and requiring sane rocket design. For example, when ...
