No, drag, is, purely, additive, unless, you, get, the, FAR, mod,

And to elaborate on this, I'm pretty sure it's actually a big part of why you experience waaay less drag in FAR than default.

No drag is purely additive unless you get the FAR mod

Is there a comma missing in there or...?

No, there isn't. Add a period on the end and it's perfectly valid.

Actually, I think he's right. In fact, your sentence above is the perfect example! It should most likely be "No, drag...." instead of "No drag". The first states that drag is purely additive, where as the second states that non of the drag is additive. Commas are important!

actually, it needed a colon. if you want to be pedantic, do it right.

Not to restart the grammar war, but WHAT!?
A colon?! you must be crazy!
you want it to be "No: drag..."?
That's not what colons are used for.

It's could be a semicolon, but I don't believe in those.
Or a period could be used too. (yes I know you can't start a sentence with a conjunction)

Your rover will go in circles, is very top heavy, and those wheels have no real traction. If you want the lander and rover separate then have them decouple.

[BigD145]

With very fiddly flying, you could land a (from bottom to top) rover, base, landing engine unit. You just detach the rover ultra close to the surface and then hover and let the Mun rotate under you until you're clear of the rover. Or you make your base with a dock on bottom and give just enough clearance to drive the rover out. I've made a base/lander that had a rover underneath. The base kneeled (with legs) to catch the rover with its dock.

I'm developing some parts for KSP mods, mainly extraplanetary launchpads. Here's the 3m-wide workshop I developed. I am seeking people to collab on texturing.

Trying my hand at spacing,
It seems the engineers forgot to install one panel.

Oh dear, there goes the K2/O2 tank, and 267 RTGs.

Off to deep space for our intrepid 18 (plus bob bill)
The very cream of the stupidest that kerbin could provide (and bob bill)
I should probably rescue bob bill.
The next one needs 3 times as many panels, also I'll launch it without hacking gravity, and some struts might help.

NASA development meeting:
"The new systems are looking great, now we just need to make them work without hacking gravity!"

[MarcAFK]

Well I needed to see how it looked in space before designing a rocket to take it there, thats the most important thing!

[BigD145]

Each of those ion clusters will need all of those solar panels.

[GreatWyrmGold]

I've heard that one Gigantor solar panel per ion engine is plenty sufficient, if you're not too far from the Sun.

[Aseaheru]

You need about two panels for one engine out by the Jool cluster of targets.

[BFEL]

So the general consensus is to construct a ship entirely out of solar panels, correct?

I REALLY wish I knew how to make that mod work
I also wish I had skillz what could help you in a meaningful way
