Making a rocket that can launch around corners... Kerbal Space Program!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 фев 2021
- In this KSP episode I finally have some mods installed and try my first mission to another planet, Uranus... Which leads to me building the tallest rocket in kerbal space program before ending up creating some sort of feminine protest rocket. Jeb then has the a very very long flight, knowing that he will be safe thanks to what I learned in my previous kerbal video- building the world's safest rocket!

How many KSP players are still here...
We're here, and we're horrified.
Horrified is the wrong word
Amused is better
Personally I love watching new players try (and fail) to achieve their goals. Sure I might think that the rocket is terribly inefficient and not built at all similar to anything I would even consider but it is funny to watch.
horrified but happily
I'd have to agree, that's a pretty bad rocket. Its always fun seeing people struggle with the kraken, though :D
It does give me an idea of how the people commenting on Matt Lowne videos that they've never reached the Mun must be playing the game tho...
Yesss, it kills me (but amuses me) to see him struggle to understand SAS and orbits and all that stuff. lol
Imagine being the crew of a spaceship and hearing the captain say: "I'll just eyeball this in"
Timestamp?
I'm not sure what's worse. The fact he said eyeball it or the fa t that he said 'this in'
18:40
it depends, if its neil armstrong, I totally believe he could eyeball it
she'll be right mate
LADIES AND GENTLEMAN, WE'VE GONE FLACCID
What does that mean
@@boredok6664 oh to be an innocent child
@@boredok6664 you’ll understand when you hit puberty
@@twanboltze8196 or perhaps the opposite
@@dankoproductions6475 how did you cum up with that haha
When you're doing a maneuver, you can click the option to the left of the navball to the right of the green one (the shape that looks like the dark blue one on the navbal) to have SAS automatically point the rocket in the correct direction
Hopefully that made sense...
No
Funnier to see him struggle with what prograde is
It didnt make sense but ill def try to figure it out next time i play KSP cuz i likewise have no idea how to do those maneuvers properly xD
Figurin out how to do them is actually key for me as ive got my own Jeb stuck in orbit around Kerbin rn and i rly wanna bring him down but had no idea how to get to him last time i tried xD
"This won't stop bending at the top" *makes it more top heavy*
@@cones914 he’s a civil engineer not a rocket engineer
I love how he accidentally made a stable solar orbit
Ah so thats where earth came from
@Eli Snyder waitaminu-
It isn't that hard just go up continuously
And spent over 5000 Δv, ending up nowhere :,)
It’s actually quite easy- something you could easily do by accident
"I want it to not bend"
Me: okay he's just going to make it short and fat
RCE: **adds weight to the top of the bendy part**
Me: *p a i n*
Hope that's not his approach to real life bridges (not that I know if it would actually work)
@@joaopedropiotroskineis9915 rockets*
OUHHHH did u mean the rocket?? Yes I tottalllyyy tottallyy was thinking of a rocket.... Yep... Totally not sum else...
@@thunderbuttocks28 Assuming he's not lying about it, he builds bridges (and other infrastructure) irl.
@@thunderbuttocks28 you must be new here lol; the RUclipsr builds bridges for a living
"32 years, bit of a waste"
can relate.
Lmao
32 bits, years of waste...
32 wastes, bit of a year
6:15 that is the most flaccid rocket i've ever seen
It had to be erect in order to penetrate trough the atmosphere.
“Fun” fact: England is the only country to have fully developed a satellite capable launch vehicle then abandon it...
While Brazil still trying.
Does the Russian Buran shuttle not count? They launched it once, empty and unpiloted, then scrapped it.
@@alex.thedeadite Russia has other rockets that they use to launch orbital payloads. He means England went to the effort of developing a vehicle (their only one) capable of going to earth orbit, making them one of the few nations that can go to space on their own, only to then abandon that ability immediately after finishing never having actually done it.
Additionally the Buran shuttle actually did make it into space a single time before being scrapped. But I think the main point is that they still have the Soyuz rockets that fly to this day.
@@lgilles the buran program ended when the USSR folded
Honestly, learning about the British space and aeronautic history is a bit depressing, really.
RCE: that's a giant flaming tampon. im dead
Real Engineer: there’s no gravity in space
hahaha, ya that one made me giggl5
As long as you're in the sphere of influence of an object with any mass at all, yes there is. Even if you left the solar system, you'd be in the SOI of a black hole that Sol and many other systems orbit. So technically, space itself has no gravity, but chances are, you'll always be inside something's SOI.
@@LTLoudpack7100 gravity has infinite range
True, but gravity will have minuscule effect when you get far enough away.
@@LTLoudpack7100 miniscule means it exists
"I feel like this won't bend in space because there's no gravity" is somehow the line that really stands out
"Ah, I don't know if I've installed the right mod!"
I think you still installed the wrong mod if it indicates that Uranus is very close to the sun...
Don't worry, I think Uranus is quite hot
@@DomenBremecXCVI *OH NO-*
His pilot's ass is on fire so it must be close to the sun
*GET AWAY FROM MY SON!*
I also wish I was as happy as that dude
I wish I was as happy as that rocket
Somewhere Scott Manley is crying
“It might look like I don’t know what I’m doing, but you might be surprised.”
Nope. We’re not surprised in the least. Not even a little bit.
He's using a bunch of retarded terminology, and doesn't know how to use more than a handful of in game tools. He definitely hasn't put more than .002 picoseconds of thought into this game.
"Whoa look at that river, its really rivery" 17:50
Glad to see you liked this game enough to come back to it from time to time. First time landing on anything that isn't your home planet, first time successfully docking, first time capturing an asteroid, after failing to do these things so many times, were some of the most satisfying moments i had in a game.
As someone who has like 2k hours on this game, this is pretty accurate!
I approve too
I remember my first proper orbit, and it was before 1.0. Damn this game needs patience, but it can be so rewarding.
@@markkupartanen9583 pre release KSP was a lawless wasteland, only the strong survived
Another enby that plays KSP! :)
@@MaximillionBucks enby nerds are surprisingly common X3
I mean, I've found that the longer I play this game, the less and less i need to actually use the manouever nodes, rather than just eyeballing.
i figured out a tactic to "eyeball" a rocket to Mun, it's quite handy in "career" mode.
I'm the opposite- played my first few hundred hours eye balling it, and when I finally learned to use the nav ball my mind was blown. For some stuff eyeballing is totally cool but other stuff it might take a bunch of tries
Just getting an intuitive sense of the different nodes (normal, pro/retrograde, etc.) is the best way, since you can just replicate what a maneuver node would do perfectly.
As a long time KSP player this is great to watch. It’s definitely slightly painful at times. But I love watching you struggle (that sounds way worse that it did in my head). It cracks me up and I’m just sitting here like “wow, I wish I could go back in time to when I had literally no idea about how orbital mechanics worked” it’s like sitting around wishing I could learn to drive all over again. Things are always so much better when you don’t know anything about them
please produce more ksp content for me to CONSUME
Nom!
@@RealCivilEngineerGaming ksp for my viewing pleasure is something i can sink my teeth into
I'll wait for RCE to design and fly an SSTO - this should be glorious, especially the landing.
@Eli Snyder I have 175 hours in ksp, and still can barely play
It looks like he achieved perfection here, there's nothing to do in this game after this!
:P
I've played this game for years and you've found ways to break it ways I've never thought possible...
That feeling when you’re trying to set a maneuver then you hear an explosion. I love this game
I haven't been to this channel in a while and didn't expect that buttplug to Uranus joke 😂
Welcome back
Woa he reply it
the last time I heard a uranus joke was in the Harry Potter book.
the thing is the translation I listened to just simply translated it without even trying to get a joke out of it, so it just doesnt work. Or atleast its not as funny or weird as it is supposed to be.
Yesterday I saw a snow flake with only two arms. It looked really cool
Nice
Nice
Ok
Nice
Nice
he put so many parachutes on that rocket that it will help him slow down in space
maybe it will work someday.
that's called a solar sailer
"Hullo, I am NOT Scott Manly, keep Uranus Safe!"

Fun Fact: holding alt will snap pieces to connection rather than them being sideways
I like his emotional attachment to jebediah
i think everyone who plays ksp loves jeb, he is the one andonly true kerbal, the others are nice but jeb is clearly the star, i dont think ive ever done a mission without jeb
RIP Jeb (but do more, sacrifices must be made)
I am a KSP player... And this is so painfull to watch. Looks like you're trying to make everything harder then it is. You really don't need to. Game is preety hard as it is
Haha big flaccid rocket go burr
Me too
Main rule of orbital mechanics is that to go in a certain direction, you do not point yourself In that direction
Ohh the rocket is bending... lets add MORE weight above where the struts attaches... surely that will fix it... I thought you would know more about physics that to try to do THAT?
I have the video paused at this moment truly questioning how this man got his degree
All the love in the world to you Real Civil Engineering, but damn dude!
He wanted to go to Uranus...
But a little did he know, he was sitting on it.
me: laughs in class
my teacher: hey what are you laughing about
me:nothing
also me: wobbly rocket
13:43 yay smog flakes!!!
A couple things about SAS: it’s very useful for targeting and maneuvers. The 3 middle options (that end with “grade”) are like the xyz axes for your movement, left side is positive and right side is negative. The top options are stability and maneuver. The bottom ones are target, which points you to your target, and antitarget, which points you away from it. The second option on the right side is useful for slowing down into the nearest celestial object because it just tries to stop you.
Yes I've been waiting for this, keep playing and keep up the good work.
KSP RUclipsr here, I watched until the end. Loved every second of it!
I love this guy's subtle laugh. ^^
Yeah you definitely need to contact Matt Lowne and get the Blunderbirds to rescue Jeb.
Is it just me or does the thumbnail represent something?
Damn Elon Musk's got a competitor I see
A few tips for you from a rocket science enthusiast who will hopefully have a NASA internship soon:
1. Always launch with the rotation of the planet. Since the earth is rotating to the east, launch in that direction to be more efficient. When you try to leave Earth, launch in the same direction it is orbiting the sun as well. *Unless you want to reach inner planets such as Venus and Mercury
2. Use mods and downloadable tools like transfer window planner. Every planet in the system travels at a different speed and distance from the sun, so it's nearly impossible to get to other planets without waiting for the correct "transfer window". In the case of Earth and Mars, this occurs once every 26 months, when Mars is 45 degrees ahead of Earth in its orbit.
3. Add more reaction wheels. It makes steering far easier.
4. Add more stages. Your current designs force you to carry a lot of empty tanks around, but real rockets always try to dump unnecessary weight (or just not bring any extra weight to begin with)
Godspeed!
When you make Maneuvers, you have to aim them ahead of where the planets currently are. In fact the UI for the maneuver will actually show you if you will intersect with another planet/moon and how it will affect your trajectory.
KSP players: No that's not how you play!
Him: haha rocket go brrrr
I think it is time you watch a KSP Tutorial
Go to the settings in the main menu and activate "advanced tweakables"
With this activated you can make autostruts which are a bit glitchy but it stabilizes your rocket.
Another tipp is that if you build rockets that look somewhat realistic, they will fly ways better.
With a somewhat realistic looking rocket, your goal is to
point 45° @ 10 km high. (With a bigger rocket you turn slower.) That's what's called a gravity-turn.
Do your gravity-turn right towards the 90° mark on the nav-ball to launch into a orbit wich is pretty good aligned with all the planets and moons.
DON'T USE MODS THAT MAKE YOUR GAME HARDER.
"We have a space agency???".....that just got me 😂😂😂😂
"Constant fat one, all the way up"
can you play antichamber
Ima insert some explanations here
The way the part attachment works is that the parts attach in 2 ways: radial (on the side of the part), or the nodes/points marked by the checkered green spheres. By aligning those spheres, you're attaching it using that way. If you hover your mouse cursor (with a part that supports radial attachment) over another part, it'll attach radially, like with the boosters, and that accidental rocket snowflake that explodes.
SAS has problems keeping the ship from wobbling because it's viewing the orientation from the cockpit. When the ship is bending, it only sees the direction at the end, not the average (middle), so it overcorrects, and makes the oscillation worse. This is why most of us put the controlling part (for BIG rockets) in the middle.
The reason the camera was trying to keep all of the parts with the rings in view was because the game still registered those rings as 'attached'.
Also, those bars are overheat. More full is hotter. Once they go past their full mark, they explode, because you've pushed them past their temperature limit.
Try using RCS blocks to control the ship's direction if you're not using engine gimbals (or they're not there, like in some boosters).
you actually solved a lot of my maneuver problems with all of your troubleshooting, thanks
Hey
I feel pain
Edit: I feel even more pain
Edit 2: AAAAAAAAAAHHHHH
Quality video and nice funniness. I know how to words sometimes
You and me both, son of Katie!
You remember!!!
First rule of ksp, you are not in control of your rocket through domineering means. You are only allowed to control your rocket through affectionate means.
You have a space agency. Or at least had, not that sure about it. it's call ESA, European Space Agency.
I want to tell you about an important thing in ksp. Delta-V. You probably know what it is already. Here it basically determines how far your rocket can go. Delta-V is that number of m/s below staging and below each engine stage. The one below staging is your total delta-v. The one below each stage is the delta v of each stage.
Every maneuver also has a delta-v - it's how much delta-v it costs.
Delta v depends on conditions. Hover over a special icon in the lower-left part of the VAB/SPH. There you will have 3 buttons: sea level, altitude and vacuum. You can also choose the celestlial body. It will display your delta-v in set conditions.
When you started placing all those struts you gave me flashbacks of playing ker plunk when I was a child.
Was cracking me up, "oh maybe we'll chase the moon". :D
i bought the game thanks to you, and already spent 46 hours in a month. Thanks to teach ne this game. I'm a Chemial Engenieer Student
6:26 yes. What I've been looking for. A dynamite. Works like one too..
This is the funnest thing I have ever seen. The glitches are gold.
it IS terrifying... I don't think I can play anymore. I'm well shattered.
So much space. Need to see it all.
Keep up the great content! Greetings from Norway!
Those ten circles to the left of the navigation, they show up when you turn on reaction control(SAS), you choose one, and it will try its best to point the rocket in that specific direction.
Actual KSP player here (and Aerospace student), and it’s been great watching you play this series. Each thing you build works better than the last, and it’s great to watch someone learn and improve. Look forward to more!
Tip: you can hold alt to make things only attach on the green nodes, for example to make the nose cones attach properly, and you can hold shift to make the whole rocket move clicking on any old part.
I'm a ksp player and this was so far from what your meant to do, I couldn't be more entertained
Love the fact that even when you are not really using the helping technologies and just screwing around, you are still doing a lot better then me, and i have played it since 2019 XD
I like the booster adding part, it reminds me of my IN THRUST WE TRUST CAMPAIGN
Oh no , temperature gauges are not full, that's not good XD
Few tips: first off click on the orange box under your staging, your twr must be bigger then 1 on your main stage, otherwise you cannot take off, as well more parachutes = more weight, and because they are more effective at high speed there is a limit, also press alt-f12 for CHEATS
Good or bad I just enjoy watching KSP so much that I bought it and I realize it's not as easy as even you make it look. Thanks for making me laugh a few times during your video. Have a great and safe day and try to stay warm.
"It might look like I don't know what I'm doing, but you'd be surprised."
Me, knowing you can click the marker you want from the menu just next to the compass.
Oh, boy, just watching the "I'm gonna chase it part" while the UI already shows you on an encounter trajectory. I hope you're having fun at least. It's a great game once you make your way through the cruel learning curve.
For anyone else having issues understanding the directional symbols:
Just spend some time fiddling with the maneuver nodes, once your out in space (easiest after achieving a stable orbit.
Maybe use cheats to enable unlimited fuel. Just spend some time getting to know which symbol has what effect on the orbit and how changing multiple will affect it.
Don't worry too much about what they're called. You should pretty quickly get a good grip on the mechanics.
You can totally eyeball a mun encounter. Get a Kerbol orbit of 80km +-, at the moment the mun crests the horizon burn full out towards apo. Perfect encounter every time.
I love this RUclipsr he just popped up randomly and I love it... keep it up
Cheers pal!
@@RealCivilEngineerGaming awesome, you have a live fan base too... I was here before 1 mil I also have a question about college for civil engineering, and how long it takes?
Depends what country, get on Google and look for courses. It varies so much I couldn't advise!
19:05 currently not trying to rip my eyes out but I'm still watching yep
"we're going to need a constant fat one" HAHAHAH omfg.
RCE messed up everything yet still did better than all of my mun missions
man your editing has improved so much :D love lots owo
Funny guy with a calming monotone voice 10/10 will share
A practice I’ve adopted recently with lengthy crafts and strut limitations is to make a pyramid out of the Cubic Octagonal Struts or Modular Girder Segments along the height of it.
Let’s say the craft is 15 Structural Fuselage’s tall, and the limit of the struts are 3 sections. So you would have 5 sets of radially attached octagonal struts, top with 1, bottom with 5, and then strut between them, retaining a rigidity along the whole height of the vessel. I hope it helps, you can never have enough struts 👍🏽
I love watching you play KSP
Please take Matt Lowne on a space trip in KSP!
When the star Looking rocket thing exlploded it looked like really good fireworks
Was actually LOLing. Ive been playing ksp off and on for years and still can't connect things correctly. Thanks for the laughs 😂
More of this please! Was hilarious.
Tip: Pressing alt+f12 gives you the cheat menu for Kerbal space program. It has infinite propellant (aka fuel) so you can screw around a little bit.
Use sas to do stuff like stables or if you click the top right icon with the same snap as the dark blue it will Aline with a manver node automatically
It is very enjoyable watching you get better, then worse, then ok, then much worse at this game.
You know the symbols to the left of the compass are for the SAS system to keep the ship pointed twords certain points right?
The bling sound and then the boing sound in slo mo 😂😂😂
Love the video
Made me hella laugh
