[22] SSTO Space Program - Duna Colony Ship is Ready! - KSP 1.3

[@MarkThrimm]

Damn it took long! but hey, another part is coming this Saturday so stay tuned! You're awesome guys, keep it up!

[@sgtdonkeyman]

Mark Thrimm Great job love your vids!

[@gilang4838]

Sir what kind of mod do you use for that aurora?

[@gilang4838]

ah you use SVE, does this mod make your game lag?

[@MarkThrimm]

Not by much, but I stopped using SVT because Kopernicus does indeed introduce quite a lot of lag.

[@ruchiryou]

One of the best playlist for ksp! After I found I just watch all 21 videos without break #addictive great work ! Waiting for next upload .

[@InspiMoti]

I endorse this approach. Some people would go to dune with a 4-ton, 7-part SSTO, visiting Moho on their way. But this is not the way to go. The way to go is with complete over-engineered overkill. This ship has ships that have ships and rovers containing rovers. I honestly think there is McDonalds missing and perhaps a casino. Way to go sir! Way to go! 10/10

[@nukeariesdiana2476]

McDonald sponsor this ship

[@4263-b5v]

Love the look of the entire ship

[@dreadnought-ai]

My thoughts exactly.

[@codaman127]

Love seeing these full on campaign projects, as someone who doesn't have the hardware or free time to take on these kinds of intense missions to settle around the kerbin star, it's always nice to see the inventive successes of others.

[@droid88-b56]

I've just stumbled across this series, but so far, it looks very great! I'll go check out the first episode now, you've earned a subscriber!

[@MogoAE]

BEAUTIFUL! I was blown out by the look of it, by the complexity of the build and the mission, and man! Those Mass Effect Andromeda forward drop pods are an awesome idea!

[@MarkThrimm]

Thanks!

[@shimozukachi5887]

1:58 that'S a shuttle. space plane = what everyone thinks of an ssto. nice craft!

[@cucumbercow7379]

Duna is red ,lathe is blue, I am on fire, my rockets are to

[@potatomcdonalds2649]

Too*

[@Bonjubu]

Woah

[@wanthun2699]

Whoa

[@thedynamicdoggo4155]

Laythe*

[@subhrachakraborty4705]

Cool mods ! I like the sand Strom appearing in duna' s atmosphere and also the transparency of water of the oceans of kerbin

[@andresiglesiast]

I’ve been waiting for this moment for months! I’ve always liked your videos, but this series has had me hooked for ages! Great stuff

[@aguila9982]

Unbelievable how far out you guys go building ships freakn awesome

[@Skythedragon]

That shuttle looks awesome, Good job! The colony ship also looks beautiful, sad of the low frame rate

[@unclesheogorath1960]

If you want to cut down part counts for your stations and colony ships, the UbioWeldingLtd Mod allows you weld multiple parts together into single parts for the reduction of part counts without being cheaty (Cost and weight doesn't change for the cumulative total of all the parts welded into one part) , then combine that with SSTU's Self-Welding Docking Ports to create permanent joints into your stations and whatnot.

[@lewismassie]

I had forgotten about the Jool mission and I got shivers when it flew past coz it looks *awesome*

[@chug160]

Literally any KZbinr doing literally anything that involves jool: Time for our ✨Tylo gravity assist✨

[@axelsundelin4171]

Hello Mark Thrimm, absolutely love your content! Can you try making a SSTO spaceplane lander with an interplanetary ring-tug? Like the ones in the StarWars prequels.

[@MarkThrimm]

This idea has crossed my mind :)

[@Enceos]

Absolutely beautiful ship! Just a kind you would meet in sci-fi movies. Hollywood level! :)

[@urses0019]

Hi Mark. GREAT AGAIN! For your minimap Scansat question that don't show the ressources. You have to go to the settings in ingame Scansat console. It is predifined there that you need a sensor to see ressources in minimap. If ypu disable this option and did a orbital survey you can see ressources too any time. Keep up the great job!

[@MarkThrimm]

Thanks for the tip, I didn't know that :)

[@urses0019]

Mark Thrimm you are welcome. If it helps, cool XD

[@user-mf7li2eb1o]

hey good i know how much it takes you to make this episodes i really like your content

[@MarkThrimm]

Thanks! I 'm glad you're enjoying. Next episode is coming soon :)

[@cmdrterrorfirma4244]

amazing ship! looking forward to the rest of the base deployment!

[@MarkThrimm]

Thank you! Next video is coming very soon!

[@lucistired]

Mark is not dead after all! Yay!

[@NightBeWheat]

The Ship looks like something from KSP 2

[@babarframanadamada]

Man, that is the most AWESOME thing I've seen in Ksp!!!

[@danmiltenberger5616]

Do you have any idea how crazy this stuff is? You casually mention ANOTHER colony ship and act like it is no big deal. I don't know how you do it, but I hope you keep up the great work

[@antonije]

That mothership is freaking AWESOME!!!!!!!!!

[@benshortreed5568]

Send the craft files to space X

[@RealDealFreel]

If it blows up. The face of Elon would be a new meme.

[@evelynscharf7828]

Finally... it's been years.

[@cezaryserkis2458]

This is the coolest video about KSP I ever watched :O

[@SimonBauer]

The earth and skybox look amazing!

[@planefan082]

Thank the devs of KSP

[@danpettersson4671]

Majestic indeed. I lack words.

[@eekee6034]

That colony ship is great! :D Sure, it's huge for KSP, but it almost certainly wouldn't be any smaller IRL. By the way, it's parachutes I can't stand; not when they overlap like that! XD

[@felpex1495]

That colony ship is just awesome!!!

[@multipletechnologies]

Good stuff. My MKS ships would always kraken when you come into load range, I had to stop using it, but this sure makes me wish it did work.

[@MarkThrimm]

It happens to me too, especially to bases and with ground tether enabled. I disabled it but they still occasionally disassemble :)

[@cjsully4088]

The ship looks amazing

[@jakryan987]

This ship looks like the space craft used at the beginning of the movie avatar

[@ModernNerd85]

Its's a pity that these parts are not stock.... Nice video, thanks for that ^^

[@FrikInCasualMode]

Congratulations on starting your colony :) That mothership is indeed a majestic, magnificent beast. Though i pity the CPU in your computer LOL

[@DreagleGaming]

very exciting!

[@potatomcdonalds2649]

*Take note, Elon.*

[@chrisstewart2150]

This is amazing! Well done!

[@maroon5man]

Wow that ship is amazing

[@Misa-hl5xw]

Thanks for the vid, looking forward to more.

[@Whalefire2]

You continue to astound me

[@michalk2072]

Incredible project!

[@thomascain8840]

also 2 colony missons at once! this will be epic

[@christianlabanca5377]

just awesome...great job

[@MeridionWanderer]

This ship look sooo awesome

[@faustosanmartin7532]

OOOHH CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEXT

[@funkymunky7935]

I sure hope KSP 2 will support more parts before the fps drops

[@drypointproductions.6903]

So accurate to real life amazing

[@sammycisneros399]

still impressive 3 years later

[@Exertios13]

One like is not enough! Why can't I give more?

[@Crashking1986]

Nice Work, i love the videos about the Colonization, but now i wanted to look how do you build that stuff to get some inspiration and how it works. But in your Craft Files there are some parts missing, for example the radial landing gear from your llittle mining Stations. Where i can find them? What mod does it need? Keep up the Work, wanna see the Duna Base grown up!

[@MarkThrimm]

I think those legs are either added by Karbonite or by Freight Transportation Technologies by RoverDude. It's nearly impossible to tell his mods apart after installation so just grab the entire USI suite as I did. The base is now ready, you can watch the next episode :)

[@Crashking1986]

It was added by Karbonite. Thx :) Yeah i saw this episode already, but you wanted to fix something on the Domes because you can't transfer stuff between them and before i have the same problem i want to look how you do that and what sort of problem it was :D You have Plans to expand the Base or what to do with it in the Future?

[@crowing7]

Whelp, that's it, time to take a break from KSP. I can't even come close to some of the stuff you pull off! Of course, it doesn't help that my cpu watercooler broke :P

[@Moerdock]

Love this Series, and i love youre space x mod!!! would be nice to see it in action wouldnt it?

[@MarkThrimm]

There is an entire series dedicated just to that mod already :)

[@CLYZRbby]

I know i am 4 years late but more impressive than the ship is the performance

[@wahlencraft7641]

So sad this doesnt have like twice the views

[@etusuku763]

Hey Mark! What is that round spinning thing on the "mothership"?

[@comito88]

9:40 great :)

[@MissterView]

Is sooo gooood!

[@NewRepublic4137]

laythe colony ship launched from duna colony? i really wanna see like that!

[@royalrhode2461]

AWESOME!!!!

[@lejeydie1196]

Amazing !

[@chongchun8979]

KEEP UP,WE LIKE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

[@axelander_ish]

Quite overkill bare minimum. ) Looks beautiful though. I was able to establish colony (on Mun) with just 90 tons of total cargo and build all from scratch. Thanks to extraplanetary lunch pad (simple construction actually), do you use it?

[@MarkThrimm]

Thanks! I use Ground Construction, which is bundled with MKS. It's much less forgiving and unless you have a full production chain, you need to bring in all resources with you. So you're not gaining much in terms of mass, but everything is neatly packaged in containers and you also save on the part count. Cheers!

[@axelander_ish]

Full production chain, with zero material kits shipping in, was my first goal. I tried Ground Construction and it looks more realistic, but just don't fit my play style. I can't design perfect vessel in one go, pack it in a box and forget. )

[@now-loading...]

すごくかっこいい…！

[@Rexfusion12325]

You are a boss

[@SparksCypher]

I love your ssto lets play. Can you somehow make a mod list single file download? If not how do you get your mods? Thanks :)

[@MarkThrimm]

I can't redistribute mods I'm using because I don't have the license or permission from their authors. I usually download and install mods manually from their respective KSP forum threads, it's the safest way to check if the mod is current. Cheers!

[@jordanrodriguez5191]

The mining stations look like Dragon Coincidence? I think not

[@toe_stealer6930]

Did this guy die or something? In a literal sense. I'm very concerned.

[@SirNoobly]

i love it

[@Mandoon]

What version of KSP are you playing? It looks great! Brilliant Video mate.

[@-sirfrenzy-1781]

Imagine if the Warp Drive mod was added to this.

[@lunokhod3937]

Yes yes yes!

[@kateza9658]

we have new einstein

[@ReaverLordTonus]

Are you using any mods that prevent something like this from wobbling and twisting itself apart? I can't build a simple space station without it bending out of control if I so much as try to move it.

[@felfox1291]

tell me which mods are you using for space station parts and greenhouses?

[@jack5exe312]

Hello Mark! I was wondering how you dont make ksp crash wiht so many mods cause my crashes on like the third (vehicle) launch

[@MrSv7dzg]

Where did you find these parts

[@izjusme9504]

I wish NASA would get off their asses and make something like this. I wanna colonise!

[@WorivpuqloDMogh]

Can you imagine if we humans did the same withing the next 50 years?

[@rouhale]

Do you have a modpack (I know there are mods in the description)

[@Techischannel]

Delta-V ... by the way eveyone uses that i suppose its the Potential maximum thrust/movement output.

[@mivergaming1796]

i am so hyped xD

[@manuelkie.4967]

from what mod are this big round tanks

[@theteadude3945]

where you have command module on duna colony ship?

[@Shrekfromthehitmovieshrek]

Another one

[@rydercurtis3995]

Look at the Soize of it

[@Jognt]

#It'sHappening! :D

[@gaving.griffon2703]

Is the base near the SSTO that you landed a long time ago?

[@MarkThrimm]

Not really. The base is actually quite far away from that location, but that SSTO has enough deltaV to get there.

[@sohamlahiri7213]

Which version of KSP is this?

[@Mystickrage]

so you should do a video of a rentry without preventing it from breaking up (not saying ruin ur series just either make a save or a new game with sandbox and spawn it in and record it falling out of orbit)

[@lucas13flu]

Mark, did you use Power Distribution provided by MKS or is each mining station self-powered?

[@MarkThrimm]

Each station is self powered. I actually don't know if you can remotely power stuff with MKS other than using microwave transmitters and their range is 2km only. But if there is another option I'd be happy to learn about it!

[@lucas13flu]

Yeah that's what I was expecting. I hoped somehow planetary logistics would also distribute power, but as of now it really is limited to a small range (I was hoping I read the instructions for Power distribution wrong lol). I'll start making a fully self-sustaining base (even producing Machinery) on Minmus and this was one of the last details I needed to know, thanks!

[@thedroplett214]

how those stations are powered?

[@MarkThrimm]

They use small nuclear reactors to generate electricity.

[@thebooboo3269]

Only if you could do this in stock

[@sentinalatlas1266]

What mod is the spinning ring from

[@davidk1308]

MKS forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/154587-13-modular-kolonization-system-mks/&tab=comments#comment-2912396 a great mod, but it's still in version 1.3. Deep space exploration vessels forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/122162-14x-deep-space-exploration-vessels-build-nasa-inspired-ships-in-ksp/ and Stockalike station parts forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/170211-142-stock-alike-station-parts-redux-april-10/ these have more centrifuges, and is up to date for KSP.

[@TwoPancakes]

How do you get such good FPS while recording

[@manicdee983]

He records at low frame rates that his computer is capable of rendering, and speeds up the video in the video editor.

[@TwoPancakes]

@@manicdee983 yeah no I got it

[@heelvy9294]

Ты бог

[@thomascain8840]

when will we land the jmc-x18?

[@MarkThrimm]

Very very soon! :D

[@sasye2931]

hello you have a video of how to download ksp 1.3.1
