Shame about all the part clipping in that video
<Deddly>
I get that it's still an incredible feat, but as soon as cheats are involved, I no longer feel like we're playing the same game.
<Deddly>
I would be more impressed with a non-cheaty but well-designed craft that uses staging than a part-clipped SSTO.
<hatrix>
I feel the same
<Mat2ch>
it's a tech demo somehow
<Mat2ch>
and yes, I'd like to have no more clipping for KSP2...
<Deddly>
I can deal with a little realistic clipping by using the move tool - like moving an RCS fuel tank into the empty space of a nose cone or something like that
<Deddly>
I used to have a tiny satellite that would just about fit underneath a Mk1 nosecone and stack decoupler. That was before we had fairings, so I was pretty proud of that :)
* packbart
likes to move a "Dumpling" tank between a probe core and RA-100 antenna
<Mat2ch>
Deddly: so we need a nose cone designer that can also make fairings out of it :D
<packbart>
it fits into the space with just a little clipping
<Mat2ch>
because the difference between a fairing and a nose cone is just the release mechanism...
<Deddly>
I don't think my satellite would fit anymore because they made the decouplers smaller. I'd have to use two of them
<Deddly>
Oh yeah, talking about using decouplers as fairings, did I ever show you guys this? https://imgur.com/a/utwTOoz

Tiny rocket to get one Kerbal to LKO: http://bksys.at/bernhard/temp/screenshot55.png Ok, the Kerbal has to complete the orbit with the jetpack, but there remains enough EVA fuel to deorbit.

<hatrix>
that's cheap
<darsie>
It also needs to be flown very precisely, or not enough fuel will remain to deorbit alive.
<hatrix>
what's the Δv of a kerbal in vaccuum?
ConductingCat has joined #KSPOfficial
<darsie>
600 m/s
<darsie>
IIRC
<hatrix>
oh wow
<darsie>
A Kerbal can jetpack to orbit from The Mun.

Deddly: That decoupler fairing is interesting. Might make using the ant more feasible.
<Deddly>
Nice rocket, darsie. where is the Kerbal?
<darsie>
At home. It's for tourists.
<darsie>
Goes to the command seat.
<Deddly>
Where is the command seat?
<darsie>
on top
<darsie>
hidden :)
<Deddly>
Oh right

<Deddly>
Well I wanted my Kerbal to have at least a little protection :)
<darsie>
Mine get a space suit :).

<Mat2ch>
darsie: with only minor damage, right? ;)
<darsie>
Mat2ch: Well, almost burn up during reentry, and if they don't bring a chute, they impact at terminal velocity. They fall unconscious from that, but recover quickly ;).

I'm going to have to fire up that rocket again, it's been a while. I think I could land the "capsule" back on the ground
