also i modified that big loving engine to have no fuel consumption whatsoever

Someone make a mod where you teleport to the moon JUST so I can see it. :o

gonna get a plane mod soon
someone recommend one to me

Download link, please?

OOOOOOH
RCS fuel tanks are for RCS thrusters. I feel stupid now, certainly. Right, now to attempt a stable orbit.

What does it do when you press R?

Also, yesterday I successfully got into space, got into a stable orbit, deployed a satellite (just random parts) and landed back on the planet without the use of parachutes.
That was my best flight. :D

R turns on your RCS thruster blocks, should you have any on your rocket attached to an RCS fuel tank. These thrusters assist greatly in turning your ship in order to, say, achieve a stable orbit.
Make sure you don't have RCS and SAS on at the same time; it greatly hinders the work of the latter. If you want to turn on RCS to make a turn, be sure to turn off SAS first.


So my rocket that I posted on the last page has been augmented with an additional stage to aid in getting higher into space. The first few launches with it were fine, but after a few launches the rocket started to veer everywhere, with myself and the numerous SAS modules on board fighting for control of the vessel. In this way, my rocket almost always winds up crashing into land instead of splashing into water. How to fix this?

uh wings on the first stage might help

uh wings on the first stage might help
I'll try that.

That works quite nicely, actually.

Every loving time I try to land on the moon it's SOMETHING that prevents me.
First time my > key got stuck and I over shot it.
Second time my dog drooled into my computers fan and shorted something out on the motherboard. My computer isn't damaged though.
Third time my mom forced me to write her essay for her and ripped my computer out because I wasn't doing it immediatly.
Fourth time I pressed Shift too much and sticky keys came up, leading to the blank screen that never stops.
I just loving give up.

Hide in your room with laptop
Lock all entrances
Hide under covers
Wear noise-cancelling headphones
Play KSP
Attempt moon landing


I also cannot seem to access V0.12. Is it, to some extent, exclusive?

Landed on the dark side of the planet(achieved a relatively wide orbit) and hit the ground at about nineteen m/s. The SAS module and RCS fuel tank attached to the command module cushioned the fall, taking the bulk of the damage and leaving the command module intact. After the safe landing, my Kerbals aghast with fear at what had just transpired, the module began to roll down a hill. Upon hitting the bottom, it exploded, killing all three brave astronauts instantly.
God dammit.

I mean...The last time I was literally orbiting the moon elliptical, about to land on the bright side when my thrusters didn't work and I pressed shift too many times and sticky keys came up. D:

Double post half bump...


I MADE IT TO THE MOON HORY forget!
This was my second try where I actually had a chance without someone/something interrupting me irl.
The first time I ran out of fuel and crashed into the Mun.

My ship.


Goodbye boosters C:

Approaching moon


Hi moon <3

Slowing down



SUCCESS

Am I first to land on moon in entire Blockland Forum? :O


The Eagle has landed.
This is one small step for a Kerbal, one... giant leap for Kerbalkind.

Hey, someone had to say it.

Oh and also

It seems I landed just right. c:
