LEO challenge - Real size Earth

[8BitCosmonaut]

By the way, how do you load your own rocket onto the pad? Mine just falls through even if I set the new save file altitude to above the launch pad.

This is also not very useful for a real playthrough, since you can't land anywhere and sizing up everything will screw up the game's map indicators.

Of course not, It's just that only Earth has been modified. The Moon orbit radius should have been updated too.

Because the last time I used your mod, I didn't scroll out to check.

Your rocket sinks through the launchpad too?! Strange, I never had that problem...

Otherwise scaling everything up is not very useful indeed, since you can't land anywhere. But reaching LEO is already a good challenge in itself

This game is user unfriendly

 

[Blazer Ayanami]

Is the moon supposed to be that close?

Of course not, It's just that only Earth has been modified. The Moon orbit radius should have been updated too.

 

[8BitCosmonaut]

And yes, you're late for the party

What you have to do is create a backup copy of your Persistant.qks file. Then delete the One you have on the game folder. Open the game and hit Build New Rocket and launch. You will respawn on the launchpad.

But If you want to respawn anything else you'll have to delete the .qks again

Sad to say this reply would've been useful if it came before Altair's, rather than just being a reminder to an answer I am already aware of.

Is there a way I can do this on IOS?

Unfortunately no

 

[SPQRALAN]

Is it because of my trash phone, because my rocket doesn't launch when I make the earth real size. Is there any way to reduce graphics load?

Ah, I also remember I had a lot of lags, especially if I zoomed out in the rocket view. I've tried to find a solution (by removing terrain, textures...), but nothing worked.

 

[Chara-cter]

Unfortunately no

*sad noise*

Yes, use flat textures (set shadowIntensity to 0) If you look at my post above that's what I did

Ooooooh thanks for this! If I had known I would have asked you sooner!

 

[Blazer Ayanami]

Here’s another ridiculously hard challenge by Altaïr...

Just kidding... I enjoy these types of challenges...

 

[Marmilo]

I did this once I think

Oh, that one was a relatively easy one. Did you already forget "Jupiterized"?

Ooooooohhh I forgot that one. Let’s see where it is.

 

[Mars Pathfinder]

[Mars Pathfinder]

Okay, i have some little problem on earth provided on first so, I'll use Faithful RSS (forgot who made it :3)

 

[Mars Pathfinder]

Alright I've got into LEO...

Altaïr is this right?

 

[bobbblair123]

This is the reason I come here. Good stuff.

Yeah for real. Everything here is legitimately impressive, no matter which angle you take on it.

Yes, this is all good. Well done Mars Pathfinder
It's possible that a problem occured with the file I provided, it was for SFS 1.4.06. The launchpad wasn't managed the same way too...

By the way, the unit for your velocity is strange, it should be displayed in m/s... meters per second squared are an acceleration unit.
