Hmm. Been trying to register on their forums so I can pre-order it, but I never seem to get an activation e-mail. And, yes, I checked my spam folder. Nothing. I had it send another, but still nothing.

Anyone else have this issue?

I had to wait 3-4 days for the email to come, if it doesn't by then post on the forums about it, there's a threat in announcments about it.
I posted on the 3rd day after my purchase.

You should all be ashamed of yourselves.  The obvious solution is to chain the baby up at the entrance as a kobold detector.

Is the extra parts pack in the OP still good or is there a better one around? I had a look on the Kerbal Wiki, and there are part packs available, so many in fact that I don't know which to choose...

(also preordered for $15, this thing is awesome)

Wait, What!?!?  I had basically given up on this, because I couldn't justify continued use of my work computer for this.  My free time is now ruined... ruined I say!

those are the one I use, because they're more or less balanced with the standard parts. Beware that lots of addons equals to an extremely long loading time.

c7 flight pack:
http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/index.php?topic=1172.0

wings, fuselage, landing gears and controllable ailerons. joystick recommended.

wobbly rockets
http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/index.php?topic=79.0

engines, tanks, decouplers that cover those ugly engines and such, going up in size up to three meters diameter.

silisko industries pack
http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/index.php?topic=1109.0

engines, specially boosters, in various size and with various adapters; struts, nosecones and some payload satellite to toy with.

capt slug assorted hardware
http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/index.php?topic=2251.0
lot of stuff in different mini packs; don't miss the the payload fairing set

capt slug radial chute
http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/index.php?topic=816.0

it's not in the assorted hardware thread; a radial chute that is very useful for slowing down spaceplanes.

This looks pretty cool, I might give it a try. I have an aviator joystick to boot. I suppose adding rocket-ship designer/pilot to one's resume couldn't hurt.

there is this thread about spaceplane projects that (mostly) work

http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/index.php?topic=2421.0

I'l leave it there as it's quite hard to balance a plane right at first. (also, burning fuel changes the center of mass adding complexity to something already quite hard to do)

I'm tempted to mod in an ion/hall effect engine, but I suspect it's already been done considering how prolific the Kerbal community seems to be.
