Team Hawk rules

[LP64350]

For team hawk, do I have to do all three? Or will just one be enough? (Sorry if this is in the wrong place)

 

[James Brown]

Choose three to do then you'll enter team hawk. One is not enough

Might be hard to do Mercury’s landing when I can’t download stuff. But just need to make a fully reusable rocket now, and somehow do mercury landing on IOS.

 

[James Brown]

No, reusable rocket is the hardest in my opinion

make the exact rocket in mercury and send it to its proper orbit in LEO then the mercury mission begins.....

but you can grind it all from mercury to jovian mission...

 

[Blazer Ayanami]

make the exact rocket in mercury

Um, what...?

What iOS people does is recreate that exact rocket in LEO. Then they can do the mission.

Correct. You only need to do three, the ones you want, and you’ll get Hawk.

However, for a reason that I don’t know because it was never explained to me... if you do the Mercury mission and nothing breaks... you automatically get Team Hawk.

Um, what...?

the thing (the one that would go to mercury)

 

[Pink]

You said IN mercury.

 

[Mars Pathfinder]

You said IN mercury.

i mean the mercury mission


sometimes i hate my english..... it looks like crap....

Now my next question is, what is considered 1 meter in the game? Is it one of the small 2x2 square?

Large sq
correct me if I am wrong

 

[Pink]

Large sq

You are correct.
Large square = 1m
Small square = 0.5m

 

[LP64350]

Phew. Thought I got some measurements wrong for a second

 

[Marmilo]

No, reusable rocket is the hardest in my opinion

I agree

Basically what I meant was it might be hard to do the Mercury mission when I can’t download the quick save.

New Ranks!
Just click it, then you'll find it

 

[James Brown]

Add oil dude!! Soon you'll finish team hawk

 

[Horus Lupercal]

New Ranks!

He's on iOS james. He can't download the quicksave.

Well, if you read the post, you'll find that not only are you not the only one on iOS, but that problem has already been solved. See if you can find the solution.

Here are the requirements to do it on iOS. I’m also on iOS and it is still possible to do. You build this craft, put it in a 35km Earth orbit, then get it to Mercury and land

for a reason that I don’t know because it was never explained to me...

Let me explain. Touchdown with the panels has to be precise, below a very low speed threshold, and all that with very little fuel, high nerves, high gravity and no RCS. And only throttle modulation to save you. Get any of the above wrong in your mind and you take damage. You can run out of fuel. Very likely. Boom. You can have your horizontal speed not under control. Boom. You can get your gravity assist wrong. Boom. You can over-do your braking burn and go back up, and not have fuel for a second shot. Boom. In this challenge you have so much to modulate. Panic? Boom. It measures a ton of skills all at once. Survive, but take panel damage? Well, you got damn close to 100%. So well done, but minus points for the small error that showed up one or more weaknesses. Not mission breaking though.

Alrighty

 

[LP64350]

Looks like I’m going to be building a shuttle. Oh boy...

Alrighty, lol.

TBH, I still think Mercury is overrated. Landing there is no more difficult than landing on Mars, and having nerves of steel is very useful, yes, but is not 100 % enough to be called an Expert.

However, I’ll not change anything. I’m just giving my opinion.
