You should be able to get there on your first flight with stsrting parts.

Manley has an old video of a hot-staged rocket going to mun or minmus on launch 1.  You can easily hit orbit with less than 30 parts (maybe less than 10) and also without staging.  Just watch some YouTube toutorials.

It's not the part limit that was getting me, it was the WEIGHT limit. Couldn't carry enough fuel to do just about anything.

I can orbit fine with it upgraded to lvl 2, but having to ration things that hard was just untenable.


Oh, I almost forgot about the idea I had!

I'm thinking of starting up "Drunken Orbits" a succession career game using the drunk fortress "first drunk first served" rules and generally resulting in more exploded buildings then any other game since the feature hit.

Anyone up for it?

I just cobbled together a stack of the tanks you start with and a lv 30, and reached orbit easily.

And for those of us unfamiliar...?

You get drunk and play DF. You also record how many drinks you took. That's the premise of Drunk Fortress. Link.

Its been a few years, but I used to get into s little trouble posting here after having too many drinks.  That probably dates back to the old forums, though.

I have never youtubed, but this seems like something that would be improved by it.  Or whatever Twitch is.  I hear there is this thing now called Twitch...

Or whatever Twitch is.

The short version?  It's Youtube, but it's live.

What what what?  I thought resources were on the "no, never, not doing it as an official feature" list?

Or maybe it means something different than I am thinking?  Maybe they mean Funds and Reputation as a resource, rather than something like Kethane.

There can't be too many changes if the game is actually "feature complete".  Especially not Kethane style resources.  Honestly, anything on the wiki page under "upcoming features" which is not already highlighted in yellow is probably out.

Resources where always on the "someday" list. They almost added them (and where working heavily on them) about the NASA update, but then bumped them onto the "after release" list.

Perhaps they mean oxygen and the like?

What? Im talking about mining up ore/sucking up water/sucking in atmo and getting fuel, materials for building, etc. Are you talking about life support?

[Putnam]

What Aseaheru is talking about is what Squad means by "resources".

You sure? i tought it was about optimisation to help computer *resource* (Joke)

[MarcAFK]

I thought they were working on increasing the snack resource capacity of the pods and cans.
