Heya, hope you enjoyed! To see a "sneak peak" of the SSTO I'm working on check out my latest tweet ;) twitter.com/Matt_Lowne/status/1090596416907563009
Love this build, especially the crazy amount of detail and the drill/catwalk section in the middle of the base. I love vehicles like these, keep up the good work Matt!
The first time I put a drill on the Mun for my base I completely forgot to add ore tanks, so you're not alone Matt. Had to re-do that entire mission because that drill was the entire point of that mission. Talk about an oversight. XD
You know lowne, this was a major inspiration for my own. I used this kinda as a guide. I jam packed that mid bay full of garbage, made it a slight bit longer, moved the lab module to the back. Stuff like that, and Jeb is still vibing on the mun.
Hello there ! Just suggesting a potential project for you : Try to make an unbreakable rover that you could use on Mun/Minmus; Here's why : the main problem of Mun and Minmus is that you can't use a rover at high speeds because if you do, you'll tip over at every turn (because of the low gravity) and break your rover. There are two ways to solve that : 1) Don't go fast 2) Make a rover that doesn't break when you stiffly hit the ground after tipping over because of a failed turn or a failed jump. I managed to build such a model myself and i could reach approximatively 55m/s on the Mun with it (without rockets attached to it, just with the wheels of the rover). I'd love to see what you could come up with (with KSP vanilla of course :p).
I'm a American that lives in southern Illinois and our weather is all over the place one minute everyone is freezing their asses off and the next minute it's hot as hell
Laughs in last time snow exceeded 2.5 inches was in 1888. Edit: and most of the recorded snowfall here is estimated as it melts before it hits the ground.
I think it’s better to use the landing legs than airbrakes because it is more stable and looks better. Sorry for my english, I’m from Russia (not Italy actually) Yeah, there are some crazy Russians, whose really loves your videos!
all it took was a Saturn V and some smaller booster on top of that. old rocket tech from 50 years to the moon ago to put new peak Kerbal tech of the late game on the moon
That landing phase was actually quite intense haha. Also, I commend your landing skills, I wouldn't have the confidence to try and land something that way.
I'm hungry, didn't someone say something about tuber essence combined with crushed seeds, water and yeast? And yes, I did just jump onto the "Garlic Bread-Give me more likes" train.

Pish the Xbox one X is way better than ps4 pro, Native 4k on rdr2. 4k blu ray player, gamepass as access way way better free games. Way better controller.
Plymouth in the snow sounds a lot like where I live in the snow, any ice appears and everything just stops working. It sucks but makes sense since it is always 100 degrees here.
I feel bad for you in the snow situation. I live in a place that gets 190 inches of snow on average each winter. We don't use salt on the roads either because it's generally too cold for it to work well, and the stuff that works in the super cold weather is stuff you don't want running off into lakes. Sand at intersections for some extra traction only. Otherwise the roads are permanently snow covered about 5 months out of the year. It can snow a foot overnight and everyone drives like nothing happened. You don't really see any more accidents than in the summer either. Combination of learned skill, snow tires, and the occasional 4 wheel drive.
I remember this snow storm ( Cork, Ireland ) and agree with you, neither were we prepared. All was closed, no work. nothing.. People where writing " send bread " with the snows on windows, as all shop were literally emptied by people rushing buying all the bread. ( only )
Obviously, the Kerbal is fine. Everyone knows that Kerbals are like vampires - when they suffer mortal injury, they burst into a cloud of dust. Amusing episode Matt! Good to know that the Mk2 cans now have a use that isn't simply being an eyesore. ;)
I'm in awe at the size of your launch stage, probably because I'm abysmal at gravity turns. Burn due upwards until 70k apo, due east until I throw away the launch stage.
Living in the southeast of America, that part about people not knowing how to drive in the snow is about as accurate as a sniper rifle. We’ll get half an inch of snow and everything just stops.
What about landing on an incline with your wheels facing towards the upward slope? That way you have a lower angular momentum before your wheels have to hit the ground. Even a steep incline, like the side of a crater, would have made for an easier landing. Let your wheels roll you down the slope, pulsing the brakes for speed control, and then come to a stop. Boom, landed more easily.
Wooo I can’t believe your from Plymouth. I been watch your videos non stop since I found your channel last week. I don’t even have a pc or games console but still really enjoying your videos. I’m from Liskeard about 20/30 minutes from you. 😀
"Rovers are, particularly not that useful..." *KSP: Breaking Ground shows up* Matt, I think it's time to break out this roving base and put it to work. Just don't forget the ore tanks this time, aye?
l love the rover, its brutal appearance goes well with the wheels. Finally those large wheels got some love too !! Too bad they misbehave when clipping through something.
I can relate to you with the weather, even though I live in neighboring Ireland. Snow (to the extent of a chillwave) only happens over here once every 8 years. The last time was 2018.
I've made a lot of Rovers over the years and had a similar issue with a few of them. My solution was to land them on the side of a steep hill or mountain so the front didnt have as far to fall.
