Bump.

Aaaa why is my light engine not working?!

What am I doing wrong fffffsss

The goal:
     Make a rocket that can land on an inner planet, leave a lander with a kerbal inside to establish a base, then return.

What happened:
     Everything went wrong. I ended up attempting to land on the dark side of the Mun as a silly Self Delete mission using my return vessel (completely not designed for landings) but.. it went surprisingly well.
Not a single part exploded on landing.



your textures look like poop

This is because I'm on a laptop with an intel hd graphics card.


It took me 3 hours but damn, I did it.

Have to agree this is the most rewarding game ever.

Congratulations on your dock.

Been playing with kethane lately. Built a small base on Minmus to serve as a base camp for mining.

change that to something like lightEngine

I'm working on a craft with replaceable parts, similar to a space station, but more mobile.

On sale today on Steam. :)

Also, should I transfer my key from the KSP Store to Steam?

Definitely.

yes.

I'll trade someone here my TF2 items for KSP cards.
