Kerbal Space Program, Or: How I learned to stop worrying and love THRUSTERRRSSSS

Everyone
Just download and drag the Parts folder to the Parts folder in your KSP directory.
If you have the paid version, drag your Plugins folder to your Plugins folder if it's a plugin.
Plugins will not work in the demo.

no, don't think so, mega..... spaceplanes aren't being redone

.16 will include EVA's (on the ground and in space), internal roosterpit views, and some other stuff. looks like it'll be great fun, though i was hoping for docking.

Watch his first 0.15 videos. He's been playing Kerbal so long, they allow him to beta test passively. He has insider info, and he says that they actually had better space plane code but couldn't finalize it before the content freeze for 0.15. So it'll be in 0.16.

But the creator of the game says other stuff.

Uh
They had to make beta teams, due to people whining too much, kind of like the way morons whined when playing snapshots for Minecraft. He doesn't have special access to betas. He just registered before the rest of us.

But the creator of the game says other stuff.

How the heck do you get to the moon using default parts?

ea to the loving sy
incredibly loving easy
look it up on their forums

0/10 that forum got packed with handicap space nerds as soon as they added the orbit monitor...

[Socky]

hi extrude or should i sAAY JACK buahaha

also how do i make my orbit wider forget

[Zuero]

This is what you have to do.
Orbit until you are at your Pe, then on your navbool get it to face the circle with an X in it. This tells you what direction to slow your orbit with. Thrust that way and your huge orbit will be reduced down normal. c:

I got a spaceplane stuck in orbit, so I decided to launch my first rescue mission. :D

The rendezvous went well, I'm getting so great at this.


Then I grabbed it with my claw, making sure not to apply too much pressure and break the ship.


I then lowered my velocity until our orbits are in the atmosphere, but barely.


Then detached and got back into orbit for further rescue missions. B)



I landed successfully but I was on the edge of my seat and forgot to take screenshots.
I'm never using that spaceplane again, that's for sure. I was shooting for the Mun because I felt derp. I couldn't even use my jetfuel, if I attached a line to it I could have used it as backup.
It was so light that it flipped around in the sky. If it weren't for ASAS I would have crashed.

[Gojira]

Oh
And docking isn't coming for a few updates as it requires a massive overhaul.
But we are getting IVAs and EVAs.

FORUM.
I MADE IT TO THE MUN.
(Yes I'm still a nooby using the demo, but this was a big accomplishment!)

Sadly, after I wanted to make another attempt at it (and actually return) just by pressing the launch button again, my ship just collapsed under itself on the launch pad. It seems luck isn't on my side.

[steve5451]

Good job! :D

motherforgeter how did I not see this thread
anyways did you guys hear about the wiki?

[steve5451]

I know a wiki exists.
I just haven't gone to it.

How did you not notice this thread? Everyday I post screenshots here just for an excuse to bump this topic.
silly
You should look a couple pages back, I've done some pretty epic stuff.
