I had to actually download the patcher from the KSP store. My copy of .16 didn't come with a patcher. Not sure if that's true for everyone or just some.

Those black tanks aren't the right colour, but apart from that, damn that's one sexy rocket.

They're nearly as bad as badgers. Build a couple of anti-buzzard SAM sites marksdwarf towers and your fortress will look like Baghdad in 2003 from all the aerial bolt spam. You waste a lot of ammo and everything is covered in unslightly exploded buzzard bits and broken bolts.

There were a few mishaps but congratulations to Rodfry Kerman. My first Kerbonaut to land on another planet. Also notably, the first Kerbonaut to permanently settle Duna... at least for the time being. It ended up being a one way trip. For one, I didn't plan enough fuel to get back anyway, but what I did have was cut short due to an engine falling off my transit stage and having to use the lander and return engines for the last bit of the Duna rendezvous. 450+ days in that capsule trying to meet up with Duna, I'm sure he's glad to stretch his legs.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I got very lucky in the initial orbit situation. If I'd been really good I'd have been able to do it in 60 days. There was almost no excuse for me to not have it done in 180, but it ended up being 450. I also intended to have a ladder that stretched all the way to the ground, but that was another casualty of the engine falling off. Luckily, Duna's gravity is JUST light enough that with a jump to launch him up, he can jetpack up to the top if need be and certainly up to the ladder.

As it is, I have about a tank and a half total of fuel left. That MIGHT be enough to get me into orbit, but certainly not enough to get me back home... Oh well. Maybe I"ll plan a rescue mission some day.

Oooo, the new version is out? I'll have to try downloading it next week, when we have a computer that can actually run it :P

I cannot fathom why the heck they host the forums on the same server as the downloads (seemingly), and why they haven't moved downloads to something like the amazon cloud.

edit: finally got through to the store to get the patcher, took about half an hour. Now its downloading nicely at 200kbs, which isn't bad at all. So i dunno.

So, I just came out of 100000x time compression and snap, my craft broke apart.

In case you cant see it, theres my command pod, parachute, and radial decoupler.
The time compression still has some bugs it seems.

From my experience of of third parties using steam (paradox), if it was on greenlight we'd get the update Monday, not today, at earliest :p

oh, and the patcher stopped the download early and just spend an hour or so trying to install. trying to start it again, looks like that will take a few goes also.

I still can't download the update. I tried with the patcher so much times yesterday only to find that the bugger, at 89mb, contains only the program and requires another 150mb download.

Now I've to get the full one, but the site is still wonky.
