I've thrown together a little KSP server here:
167.88.35.241

the fastest way into space is downloading the mod manager named CKAN:
https://github.com/KSP-CKAN/CKAN/releases

and select USI Kolonization system and Antenna range mod, plus all dependencies. mechjeb/engineer are allowed but not mandatory ( * I think * - it's not like I understood how to configure it or anything)


to connect, use the DMP client from here https://kerbalstuff.com/mod/4

rules are simple: don't be an ass, and if you intend something to be a refuel station, name it refuel so people know it is safe to siphon off fuel from it


please fill the poll so we can have a server that makes happy the most!

note: mods are still in flux, we will get on that later on.

(Prolly should fix the typo~ It's "Together", not "togheter." Unless you intended to spell it that way.)

Anyways, I might give the server a looksie at some point.

Hello.

Bay12 Station now has a science module attached because why not.

I'm practicing for building my station in 1.0

why u no use 2.5mt port?

[Aseaheru]

He did, there just arent any free ones. Perhaps if you shift the science module down a bit, throw in a connector array for 2.5m parts...

The science module has a 2.5m port on one side and a 1.25m port on the other side. If you want to move it you're free to do so.

There was only one 2.5m port open at the time I docked it so I put it there. If you want a 2.5m port on the other side it would be easy to slap on an adapter.

seems more a lost opportunity to do some different science. say, generate contracts that give you an experiment part to bring to a station, then dock and run experiment in a specific place of the system for science, money and stuff. instead we get just a way to reprocess experiment which is annoying because you get benefit only babysitting it, nor as on off neither as continuous shoot.

The MP game is in sandbox anyway, no science to be done. There are mods that work that way though, where you bring experiment parts up to do science.

And apparently in 1.0 the lab will function differently, letting you process data over long periods to get better output.

Because they did something silly and made it redundant when they introduced skills.

To be fair, the lab was never very interesting. What they have done now makes more sense to me. A trained scientist gives a nice flat bonus to transmitted science and can reset experiments, but the lab will let you analyze an experiment over a long period and generate more science than is otherwise possible to obtain. Now there is a reason to include a lab.

Personally, I'm kind of terrible at rendezvousing with anything that isn't a moon without MechJeb (even though 80% of the time I've played KSP has been without it).

Aside: I voted against snacks because it lacks the recycling stuff that TAC life support has (for bigger long term missions), but TAC life support adds a ton of parts, and kerbals can die if you use it, so I can see why you would prefer snacks instead.

[forsaken1111]

TAC would probably be terrible for a multiplayer server because time can advance while you are not online meaning your mission and kerbals will be eating up resources (literally) and will die off if someone else does a bunch of time warping.

I would prefer the station use 1.25 parts for its connectors, with the battery behind it, and the structural adaptor of 1.25 to 2.5 on both ends.  Provides a bit more spacing, and that was the structure used for the first two modules.
