Instead of deleting the other parts mod to keep the parts list simple, you can install Janitor’s Closet and then you can filter the parts that show up

[@GrandProtectorDark]

Consider Game performance and loading timed though. The game loads up every into ram at startup.

[@hfaulk]

[@hm_hm-dy5be]

You should try the “through the eyes of a Kerbal” mod, it just enables the FPS view of free IVA on EVA, really changes how you explore surfaces

[@there_are_bugs_under_your_skin]

It also makes it so that it can disable all external views so you can see, well, through the eyes of a Kerbal. (DE_IVAExtension required if you want to actually go anywhere)

Just came to comment that

[@StrandedOnDuna]

more importantly KERBALVR!

[@samjr0173]

Matt you send a Mun base to the mun without even exploring the tarrain befor hand. You need to go back even further where you landed a rover or a small mun mission so you know where the best place is.

[@thegamesforreal1673]

I'd personally love a revival of Expedition Eve in the style of Life on Laythe. Venus IRL is my favorite planet, and naturally Eve is then also my favorite in the Kerbol system. I'd especially love seeing you work with rotor blades for atmospheric flight. Maybe even quad-copter skycranes to deploy surface base modules!

[@Ihavenooriginalideas]

I love how at some point in every video the commentary just turns into a podcast about Matt's life

[@Will-md3tt]

It’s always hilarious to me hearing him talk about himself for 10 minutes forgetting what’s happening in the game.

if you're gonna have multiple mods that you might confuse with each other, download janitors closet. it's includes mod filters to exclude specific parts from the part list

Wow, spent 1+ years on the Mun and landed right back on Kerbin, with no problems on the 1st try! Matt's skills are indeed immense!

My favorite part is that the story that Matt tells about why he didn't notice that the rocket launch didn't have sound took so long that it ended with the crew landing on the Mun.

So as someone who has delivered refrigerators before, you only don't turn them on right away if you have tilted them past 45 degrees. It's for the argon to settle back down if I remember right.

[@WulfgarOpenthroat]

AIUI it's so the oil that lubricates the pump can drain back to where it's supposed to be. Argon isn't used in the refrigeration cycle AFAIK, it's boiling point of -185°C would be rather impractical as it's the phase change between liquid and gas (triggered by pressure changes but still) that's used to absorb and dump heat energy, tho I suppose that whatever refrigerant is used may need to settle; Freon is a the name of a family of chemicals that were commonly used for a long time, maybe you were thinking of that?

The fridge story reminds me of when I was trying to cancel my phone service. It's hugely popular carrier, Verizon, and I walked into the nearest of like 12 stores by me and I was told I needed to call some number, no one in the store could help me, they were all salesmen. They gladly gave me the number, to dial on my own phone, to cancel their service.. by a call center worker.. So I sat on hold inside their brick and mortar store, on hold with a call center employee... Glad I'm no longer a paying customer.

This series youve made with adding a few mods every episode is really cool. I also just think the missions have been really interesting. Doing stuff you normally dont do (like planes)

I think Matt should make a interplanetary space station that can go to Duna

[@AoiKaze2000]

[@kyleinorbit]

Yo Matt - if you're still having issues with your rocket sounds, consider looking into the Rocket Sound Enhancement mod. I've had similar issues when recording KSP videos with mods (waterfall seems to play a part in it, possibly due to a loading error for new launches) but since I've added the replacement sound mod I've not had any engine drop outs! Hope that helps :)

If you’re going to go interplanetary, Nertea’s Near Future Launch Vehicles (and the other near future mods) are a must. (Also, for missions deeper into space, CryoEngines with Kerbal Atomics- also by nertea- is really useful.)

[@R-BGamingUK]

Hey Matt, here's a piece of advice I learnt:If you're gonna use Kerbal Planetary Base Systems at any point, don't FreeIVA in any of the parts, I once had a kerbal fall through the ground while FreeIVAing

[@alexanderclegg4854]

Mod suggestion: Pathfinder. Portable inflatable habitats that can be carried (albeit clumsily) by kerbals! Based on an old concept NASA had for scouting out a moonbase location I believe. (Don't quote me on that ^^)

[@Potatoincanada201]

Man. Who knew that you first start talking about sending Kerbals to a Mun base 2 minutes later, were all talking about expired washing machines that are getting replaced by people downstairs! (I would never expect to ever say that in my life (luckily, I typed it)).

[@Galerak1]

Great video but for head-canon purposes Bill & Bob should have waddled over to the Munar-base and Jeb, being the BADA55 pilot, should have said "Bugger that! I'm flying over there."

[@chalkchalkson5639]

You know if you built a moon base already, what if you build an Arecibo style radar station on the far side? It would make sense for the Kerbels to build a strong planetary radar before going out to other planets and it would be a thing that uniquely makes sense on the Mun just as fuel infrastructure is especially sensible on minmus.

[@CubeHeadd]

Also I'd recommend the "through the eyes of a kerbal" mod if you're doing a lot of Eva. It's basically kerbal pov mod

[@projectlessweforget]

My grandparents fridge stopped working completely a day after they bought groceries (near the end of July) and they bought a new fridge but for some reason it didn't work so they had to get a replacement fridge for the first replacement fridge of the same type as the first replacement fridge. That SNAFU nearly broke my grandparents.

I don't have problems with dead upper stages polluting space. They all have a small antenna and power to work as relais. And all my satellites have docking ports to refuel them, expand them, and perhaps even bring them back, similar to the MEV system.

[@BenRK90]

I would always include at least one swivel engine in my rockets for the extra control. I'd have the more powerful engines of course, but having even just one swivel made the rocket much more manuverable. At least from what I remember. It has been a long time since I played
