Code: [Select]
W1T2T3 + W2T3(T2+T1) + W3T2T3 + W3T2T1 + W3T3T1 - T2T3T1
P = -  ----------------------------------------------------------
T2(T3+T1) + T3T1

?  That's what Wolfram Alpha gave me.

Input was:

(A+B+C+P)/T + (B+C+P)/H + (C+P)/R - 1, solve for P

(Note- it didn't like me putting w1 etc for the var names, so I changed it to ABC instead of W1 W2 W3 and THR instead of T1 T2 T3.  I fixed it for the top formula.)

Your formula is wrong.

(A+B+C)/T=/= T/(B+C+P)

I'm not going to bother reposting that formula, but Nirur's version is pretty much it.  Yuck.

Yes. It's actually timed, not contact as before.

Yup, just checking. Also, don't forget to choose an extra Trait. See Global news


I think we're only waiting for Kingfisher now.

All done!

I had a few ideas for n-stage rockets that might work, but I make no promises.

For the next version of the spreadsheets (which I'll properly add the prices and design xp into, sorry about that), how exactly is booster thruster calculated? Is it just the net thrust directly added onto the thrust of the initial rocket stage?

I'm nicknaming my Creepers 1 as " The flying Explosion". I'm so screwed when I launch that thing!

They can't fly at all. Your design has 3 thrusters, while you can only have one with your current tech. Also your fueltanks hold 171.5 liter tanks to Ansontans cooperation.

3 small fuel: Fuel 514l. Weight, 514kg
1 Small thruster 100kg 1095kg thrust
1m payload( You can replace this by any payload weighting less then 165 kg. I strongly suggest that you add more fuel tanks if you want to have a usefull rocket)
Hull: 5*65= 325
Payload 165 kg

For example, this design will be able to carry your explosives or a lifesupport module.

5 small fuel:  857.5 l
1 small thruster: 100kg 1826 thrust
1 m payload( Max 514 kg)
Hull: 7*65= 455
