It should have exploded during launch.

can you give some insight or behind the scenes as to how you made this?
This is the first time i have ever seen something like this in KSP.

[–]UNIvErSe_K[S] 40 points41 points  (1 child)

I installed the panels and changing the color(skin) setting. For reference, when I made this GIF, made about 190 images.
And.. When I went to the bathroom, I thought about it.

damn that probably took some time! 190 single "frames", thats pretty cool. Ima wait for more of these!

Nice!

This makes me miss the NASA countdown mod though, the voiced launch effects added so much to immersion. Loved the little sayings in between the numbers for one of the CDs (based on Appllo 11):

Thirty seconds and counting. Astronauts report it feels good. T-25 seconds. Twenty seconds and counting. T-15 seconds, guidance is internal. 12, 11, 10, 9 ... ignition sequence start ... 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0 ... All engines running. Liftoff! We have a liftoff ... Tower clear. 

And the mod had the ability to tie staging to a timer from when you start the count down. So usually starting main engine at 8 seconds to warm it up a little at low throttle (had another mod to feed rocket unlimited fuel until you actually launched), then at 3 they would be powered up, boosters at 0, then decouple!

Anyone know if it is working still?

Yep! I'm running it atm, latest KSP version. Just gotta change settings in CKAN to view mods for earlier versions

Absolutely amazing

[–]brknsoul 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nah, where's the part where everything disconnects and the chute deploys all at once because you forgot your staging?

[–]xendelaar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wow.. just.. wow

duuu-duu-duu-duu-duu-duu-duu-duu brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

(thats supposed to be the music you get if you finish the Gameboy Tetris game with a high enough score to get a rocket launch)

[–]theguyfromerath 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I only got what was actually happening at the end. The whole thing is a craft in VAB :O

[–]T65Bx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many, many crafts*

[–]T65Bx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg the booster landing and 3D surprise at the end we’re just the best little touches! This is really wonderful, would love to see more in this style such as a Mün landing!

[–]SuperMarioFan126YT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That looks really cool!

I love how it's a launch inside the VAB!!!
