    I can build a giant 4-6 stage rocket with all the trimmings and BARELY reach minmus, and he builds this and gets to duna?.. This is just will-breaking to watch.. This guy is basically the KSP equivalent to someone in CS:GO who can get headshots literally every shot without hacks.

    • @SeamusCameron
      @SeamusCameron 8 років тому +3

      Minmus missions are fun. The nuclear engines and long, well planned trickle burns with low overall mass are your best friend. Staging external tanks to drop helps a ton too. My personal favorite is keeping 4,6 separately ejectable external tanks on the final stage, and burning all the fuel in them one at a time and immediately ejecting them when empty. You can end up with a fairly efficient, well fueled vehicle that's continually shedding mass and gaining thrust efficiency as it goes.

    • @chargedcapacitorwdasddsaf6833
      @chargedcapacitorwdasddsaf6833 8 років тому +4

      I don't play the game, but another commentator mentioned that since this video was made in late 2013, it appears to be much easier to construct successful spacecraft, since aerodynamics apparently had not been released yet.

    • @hellboy6507

      Scott Manley well I've found that before 1.0 kerbals were able to survive from most deorbiting spaceships by using the packs space bar and backwards thrust until you hit the ground after you pass into the denser atmosphere...they bounce :3

    • @ivan5555599999z
      @ivan5555599999z 9 років тому +2

      Scott Manley If you fire up and backwards as you hit water, and hit the 'recover vessel' button as soon as it appears, you can actually deorbit/land a kerbal from orbit.
      Useful for doing a few rescue missions in a row with a big ship that can get within 2.5km of each and then drop em one by one.

    I know it's really late, but you probably could've tuned the amount of oxidizer in the tank to just the amount the aerospikes need, as it's effectively dry mass once you're down to the nuclear engines
    EDIT: apparently in this version the nuclear engines use oxidizer too. huh.

    WHY DO YOU SHAME ME SO MUCH SCOTT?! Seriously....i haven't even landed on another planet yet.

    • @HolidayTheLeek

      Have you landed on the moon? If yes getting to planets is just like that.... On a bigger scale.... Personally jool is the easiest to get an encounter with. Or install mechjeb....

      strikeout1991 The only Kerbals I SEND are on a mission to colonise Laythe, I call it "colonising" instead of landing because they NEVER COME BACK... They stay there in house looking things so I don't feel guilty.

    I'm always thinking "Scott isn't gonna make it back to Kerbin, he'll run out of fuel!" and then Scott will say something like "Right, we're running low on fuel so we're gonna head back to Kerbin.... via Jool, Ike, Eve, Duna and Laythe, maybe we'll be able to pass Minmus on the way back too." and he still gets back with fuel to spare!

    So yeah, you should get some kind of award or something.

  • @BlackWolf18C
    @BlackWolf18C 11 років тому

    That's a really good idea for the devs or perhaps a modder. Fuel and oxidizer jettison ports that provide a tiny amount of thrust at terrible efficiency but allow you to tweak your amounts of fuel and oxidizer for things like this or short landings where you're not planning on taking off again. Systems like these are installed in a lot of commercial aircraft to dump fuel in the case of overweight landing, engine failure or an in-flight fire.

    Scott, I have a challenge for you. Fly to Laythe on SRB's only, land and return to Kerbin. Space craft must have at least one Kerbal inside or on a Chair and be assembled in Orbit.
    The central rocket with the Kerbal launching with no Liquid Rockets. RCS can be used, but only using the small circular RCS Rockets. Kerbal MUST return to Kerbin on the chair and land.
    The Construction piece's can use Liquid fuel tanks, but ONLY using either a Skipper or Mainsail. NOTHING ELSE! If that's possible

  • @Elusive7thElement
    @Elusive7thElement 11 років тому

    17:25 "if only i could dump oxidizer".....you can scott, just disable the liquidfuel flow and run the engines, they will burn the oxidizer without the liquidfuel producing no thrust, essentially dumping it. I don't usually ask for thumbs up, but can this gets thumbsed up, or can someone somehow pass this tip onto him?
    I think he would appreciate it
