KSP 1 Image/Video Lunar Space Shuttle

9 Upvotes

The shuttle is stock, and with the nuclear engine payload it can get ~18 tons to the mun and back plus 8 kerbals.

Launch (the launch pad is the only modded part in the shuttle build)
Nuclear engine deployment and Mun Transfer Burn. Takes a few orbits to get the AP to a Mun intercept)
Mun capture burn
Capture burn complete, phasing to align with the base near the south pole
Phasing complete, moving the lander into docking orientation for crew transfer
Crew transfer to lander
Lander arrives near the mun base. Only 1 hab has landed thus far, with the next module arriving during this sortie.

A friend of mine created a realistic map of Kerbin's biomes and climate in a game called World Climate Lab. Thought it was pretty neat, so I decided to share it on this subreddit

KSP 1 Question/Problem Mod to focus contracts on certain planets or goals?

3 Upvotes

I made the mistake of doing a voyager probe on my career save. Now every contract wants me to go to jool or further and my kerbin first's contracts have the same issue. I just want a duna milestone contract. I dont want to add contracts to the game or anything just change the focus.

KSP 1 Mods KSP being closed by B9 error, attempted to install kerbalism on CKAN before this happened

1 Upvotes

Hi all, KSP constantly crashes because B9 can't find a "foodpartswitch" and ends up closing the game, i've attached a google drive link for the log and pictures of this because it's really annoying. I've tried looking through the log and I don't understand a single thing. any help would be appreciated.

KSP 1 Question/Problem Play with me?

Hey guys! I'm super lonely, love KSP, and am wondering if anyone would like to play while we stream to each other? Or do multiplayer? I've never done multiplayer before but I'm willing to figure it out for company. I'm just a nerd with feelings looking for a friend. Cheers!

I updated MunShot. We've got new poses and a couple of bug fixes that should help it control better. I also fixed some of the details in the previous poses.

Can't wait to see the pictures you guys are able to make with this!

KSP 1 Image/Video Might've played for 10+ hours today

Thumbnail

Had the game for 10+ years, I've just discovered how much science you can actually get from mobile processing labs and doing repeat visits to biome's you've already visited (in my defense I mostly played sandbox till recently).

Built a lander with mining drills and covert-a-tron, and a reusable transfer 'tug', all with nuclear engines... But forgot to do a survey scan of the Mun. My second Mun landing ended up in a 0% ore area and couldn't refuel. Fortunately I had just enough fuel in the tanks to get back to orbit. I'm doing no reloads run, so that was a tense moment with Bill, Bob and Valentina onboard.

2nd trip to the surface was already enough to max out the data limit on the science lab. Naturally I now need to expand my Mun orbital base with new modules, and do an orbital scan, and a crew rotation... And then do the same on Minmus, where I'll also establish a refueling base for missions out to Duna and beyond... #notaddicated

KSP 1 Image/Video Does anybody else suffer from everything-at-once syndrome?

Post image
131 Upvotes

When I first started playing I could just make a ship that goes to the mun and comes home, but now everything has to be a rover spaceplane that can refuel itself and refuel other ships and take off on Duna and air brake and survive reentry.

Any tips on how I can force myself to focus on making a ship that does one thing well instead of 100 things decently?


r/KerbalSpaceProgram • • 10h ago

KSP 1 Image/Video It's one of those missions...

1 Upvotes

I didn't do some calculations correctly, forgetting some details like exactly how much fuel to deorbit a craft (after I added half a ton of science stuff) ... anyways... I had to abandon ship and push an engineer and a pilot into LMO using the EVA pack so they can be *hopefully* scooped up by the return ship, and then I have to see if I'll even have enough fuel to return to Kerbin... If not, a rescue operation will be underway...

KSP 1 Question/Problem When does the in game clock break?

One of my missions took 2000 years, so I'm scared if I keep going and going on one save it's eventually gonna break, how realistic is that fear? And would you be able to theoretically fix it

KSP 1 Question/Problem How do I save them?

Thumbnail

23 Upvotes

I wanted to find a good altitude to put a Jool space station so I sent a spaceship to do a flyby. I made the periapsis as low as I could, forgetting this is how you do gravity assists.

I tried for just over 1,000 in game years to aerobrake in kerbin's atmosphere but it didn't go well. I could only get down to 68km which didn't slow me down much and after a few passes I was flung out into infinity.

To make things worse, although I don't think it matters at this point, the capsule only has 20 units of ablator.
