I was going to say this! Something along the lines of [Build] ----------[Progress Bar]----------- [Launch] (4:35) would probably look best

[@kataseiko]

Agreed. You can e.g. put the time of the launch below the "Launch" text. Also, I'm sure you have seen the SpaceX missions. It would be awesome to have a timer similar to that one on your videos after launch.

[@NICKELGHANDI]

I love the progress bar. Sometimes I don't have a ton of time, but still want to watch a Matt Lowne video. Being able to skip ahead without skipping the entire build is a really nice thing. I've never downloaded one of your craft files, but I have modeled some builds after yours so watching the build and being able to hop around within it is very useful to me.

[@thewanderers97]

I know this comment is 5 years old but same, I never use the craft file but often look at how matt has designed a craft to see roughly how to do things while I make my own and the progress bar helps so much

[@rooka4]

Farthest I can go is the Mun... *and not back*

[@sanmarino282]

Same

[@samiul_2636]

Farthest i can go is the orbit of kerbin, maybe back

[@ВиталяКекс-ц6е]

Tip: Liquid engines on the side instead of a shit ton of solid fuel boosters around a mammoth are more efficient. Engines with low power are more fuel efficient. When taking off kerbin, do it in a more aggressive angle. Don’t fly at 90 degrees straight at the mun. Don’t make rockets heavy if your payload is small, make your rockets as compact as possible. Think about the weight of rocket in that way “how much do I have to lift? 80 tons of dead weight to duna? Well, time to make twin towers a children’s playground” “how much do I have to lift? 10 tons? We should something simple, something you can do in career mode” I hope I helped. That’s what I struggled with, anyway.

[@samiul_2636]

First moon landing, moon satellite, Mars landing ALL IN A ROW (except Mars rocket first attempt didn't lift off)

[@floo1465]

Yeah, I’ve sent an unmanned science lander to the Mun, and that’s it. Edit: Next, I’m going to send a prototype manned lander with a drone core. It won’t be manned, but I’ll attempt to get a habitable lander to the Mun and back.

Matt! If you turn of sas right before the docking ports touch, you dont have that problem anymore 👌 As always great vid man 🔥

[@ClipsCrazeCC]

Matt, you should make a VTOL with the new DLC parts. If you can you could even make a VTOL SSTO. Which would be SO awesome!!

[@deersgamr8034]

It would be awesomer if its a box wing!

[@ClipsCrazeCC]

@@deersgamr8034 yeh

[@darkner2390]

Challenge: - Land an SSTO on the mun and get back to Kerbin. You may land on other/further away planets if you wish to make it more challenging. - You are not allowed to use landing gear of any kind apart from landing legs. - This SSTO has both forward and backwards engines. The max forwards thrust is equal to the max backwards thrust. - The SSTO is allowed to have a VTOL feature(optional), but it must be launched from the runway. You don't have to accelerate forward to take off from the ground. - You can add anything onto it to make it more impressive. This is your own choice. Have fun and good luck.

Hey, I love your build time lapse progress bar. I always watch your builds anyway, but it's just satisfying to be able to see the progress, it kind of gives me an idea of how big or complex the build is going to be, since I can see when it'll be done. Not that it matters, per se, but it's a nice touch for me.

[@seejianshin]

I think the most impressive thing about you is that you somehow manage to keep all the main kerbals alive

[@jonathanjones8810]

I really like the progress bar. The time lapses are nice, but knowing that they are close to the end is really nice if I want to jump forward to halfway done with the build portion

[@sand-n-sageroundy3999]

I like how committed you are to making your videos enjoyable. Keep up the good work

[@ryanvoll7088]

How do you know how much fuel to take for these missions? Is from trial and error?

[@jbondrums_2034]

Ryan Voll you can google “ksp delta v map” and as long as you are playing a later version of the game (or with KER) you can use that to calculate the 🔺V usage. Alternatively, you can just completely over-engineer the craft like Matt!

[@ryanvoll7088]

CosmicCookie24 Thank you

[@jacksongaming854]

Or use kerbal engineer readouts

Your Segway into the skillshare ad was the best Segway I’ve ever heard in my life 👏👏👏

[@thesteelrodent1796]

the surface features from breaking ground shows up much sooner than the scatter or any other features, so with draw distance on max you can see them pop up on the horizon (accounting for hills obviously) while you have to before close for the scatter to show up

Thanks, as always great work!
