Fortunely i already made a surface base for a Jovian moon, so thats not gonna be very hard :)

So why not go right to the next mission then?

As you can see i modified both wheels so that individual slices don't repeat, i feel like that will make them more balanced since the number of Jovian missions is suspiciously big.

Easy peasy, but at least it wasnt another Jovian mission ;)

To be honest sending couple dozen screenshots from every mission gets preety repetetive and tiring, i'll just be posting the end results from now on.

Speaking of which, another mission!

I liked your spinner idea so much, I downloaded the spinner app and made four spinners for myself to give me missions. The spinners I populated: 1) Country/Space Agency rocket origin (NASA, India, etc.); 2) Mission type (lander, orbiter, etc.); 3) Space company for the payload or some aspect (Rocket Labs, Northrop Grumman, etc.); 4) Destination. My first mission: CNSA, satellite, World View Enterprises, Jupiter. So, with that information, I researched the company a bit, and now I’m trying to use a Long March 5 to send the World View-developed Stratollite (maneuverable high-altitude balloon) through Jupiter’s atmosphere. So far, I burn up, but I can get it in orbit above the atmosphere. But, I would really like to deploy my parachutes (my representation of a balloon) in Jupiter’s atmosphere and call it a success. I was able to deploy it to Mars, though. Fun to research what’s out in the real-world from doing the spinner thing and trying to mimic them. Thanks

Glad i inspired some people :)

Decided to do one myself, and I may just make an entire other post on it separate post thread (giving credit to the idea obviously.) but I wanted to do something a little bit different. For one, I have a download pack for all planets and their moons. So I put every single planet and their moons in this custom solar system (if i could find which post I got it from, I’ll link to it and give credit to the creator.) and I also have all DLC. However, and I’ll explain this in my post, I have some set rules for myself. Can’t wait to do this idea, thanks for the idea man!
