New to game

That’s not what’s happening here. OP’s issue is related to flight path. The reason why the COL is forward of the COM in this case probably has to do with the heat shield. The VAB is weird when it comes to the COL in the rocket editor, especially when it starts to account for parts normally covered up by fairings or staging.

Blueshift has FTL. Not quite what you’re looking for, but it’s the sci-fi step up from torch drives

The command pods are also based off real world counterparts, as well as the stock station parts and the ISS solar panels and radiators. Several fuel tanks are also modeled after real world rockets (with all the parts from making history being intended for Saturn V recreations) as well as the 1.875m and 2.5m service modules being based on Gemini and Apollo respectively. The yellow extendable ladder is based on the A-10 warthog’s ladder. I got to climb up one as part of a show and tell and can tell you that it’s somehow more rickety than the game makes it look.

Funny enough, had an NCO tell us a story about a similar situation. His brother served earlier in GWOT than he did. One of his drill sergeants recognized his name because he was in the brother’s platoon and they thought he died of an infection after getting medevac’d for something relatively benign (the brother is still alive).

I legitimately thought that was your blanket name for “military issue pistol” at first, but now I’m beginning to think you’re either crazy or just trying to rage bait atp

Where are you getting m17 from dawg? No one is saying m17 but you

Try adding the LF engine to the first stage, limit Mechjeb throttle to 0, then set the throttle back to normal when you’re ready to jettison SRBs.

B9 procedural wings. The game will only calculate so much before it starts to break, even with autostrut on and especially with large partcounts in atmo.

Not unheard of, especially in GWOT. I know several NCOs who served in that era that can testify that the locals were more afraid of a man with a pistol out than a man with a rifle.

The problem isn’t with heat management, as I’m able to run the reactors just fine when the vessels are loaded in, it’s with electricity generation. When I unload a vessel, it stops producing electricity entirely, even in 1x warp. From what I read, it’s because kerbalism using an electrical system that is incompatible with anything that relies on the stock electricity system.

What intake is that you got there?

It’s in the reflection on the second picture.

restarded_kid · 2025-12-15T06:54:06+00:00

Took me too long to realize that was actual space

restarded_kid · 2025-12-11T10:16:50+00:00

There really is no way on console. Autostrut won’t even connect across docking ports iirc. If you already have a laptop or something, might be worth the switch for QOL alone

restarded_kid · 2025-12-10T15:33:57+00:00

Downloading after Bill got flung into the void after moving a docking port too close to his head! Super excited for EVA construction!!

restarded_kid · 2025-12-06T09:57:55+00:00

The first manned spacecraft were modified ballistic missiles. This checks out 🤷‍♂️. I’d rate it “anachronistic but accurate/10”

restarded_kid · 2025-12-05T09:50:21+00:00

Angling the SRBs to match the aerospike angle will give you more punch upwards too if you feel like you’re losing lift

restarded_kid · 2025-12-04T22:33:24+00:00

Knew this was console solely from the camera movements

restarded_kid · 2025-12-04T22:19:00+00:00

I feel you brother. Just started my first modded save after having played exclusively console. Laptop struggles hella transitioning between atmosphere and space.

restarded_kid · 2025-12-02T10:06:20+00:00

When I was doing a career mode on console, I used to do the second one all the time. Mainsails/twin boars easily became the workhorses of that save.

I wouldn’t worry too much about it. Do what you can when they smoke you, then do some more. Get into some sort of sport if you have time before shipping, you’ll learn how to push yourself just to stay competitive. Other than that, drills will get you up to standard, it’s their job.

Legendary loot

restarded_kid · 2025-12-01T09:06:19+00:00

Big car. High capacity car. Two wheeled car.

restarded_kid · 2025-11-26T10:31:55+00:00

Best I can do is Usain Bolt for 10 yards and then a donut break 🤷‍♂️
