Kerbal Speedrun - Building, Launching, Landing, Returning from Mun

- Forget the science, let's see how fast I can go from an empty VAB to the surface of the mun and then back to kerbin. And then, let's see how fast everyone else can do it.
Rules:
1) start with empty VAB
2) build a vehicle one part at a time, no subassemblys
3) launch to moon, you may have already setup correct orientation.
4) land softly on moon for at least a second, a bounce does not count.
5) return to kerbin and land safely
Stock KSP 1.2.2 only, no mods allowed, no custom categories, video needed for verification.
I'll have another go, because I know I can do better, also, there are other records to attempt. - เกม
Take notes, NASA. I expect this to be in the budget proposal.
They are both investments, the bailouts were already paid back from the banks with interest.
As far as I know this is exactly how Apollo 11 went. Neil Armstrong just stuck his foot out the door, said some stuff about steps and booked it back home.
That wasnt apollo 11
They stayed the night too
David Mikulic wasn't*
They also took samples and put scientific instruments and a mirror on the moon.
r/woooosh
and I couldn't achieve a proper orbit for months
I still can't love the game just never been to the mun yet haha.
Got the Mun down but I can't get to other planets
+Jman I got to the purple planet Wich name I always forget but I can't get to exterior planets
Bryan Martins eve
Jman look up the delta v map, very handy.
You should submit this to the official speedrun website.
Skul oh hi there wait a second if you’ve got lots of subs then why has no one noticed this comment
@@helenrennie1527 because at the time he was irrelevant but now he is popular
D Nonsense ah yes that makes sense as it was 3 years ago
@@helenrennie1527 yeah 3 years ago
It wouldn’t quite be a valid run for Sandbox Mun & Back RTA. With current rules, the time stops when recovering the craft, which he never did. If he did, the first attempt would be 6th place.
Wife: "Honey, I'll be back in 10 minutes"
Scott: TO THE MUN and back!
Lmao
Twice!
Time warping in the real world would be so amazing
That awkward moment when you try to zoom and pan when watching a video...
Zappyguy111 I always do that xD
sometimes i try to rotate the camera and it rotates in video. than i stop for a second and realize im on youtube
You know you play too much KSP when...
KSP seriously needs 360° video capture support xD
@@JayOhm That would be genius
*MAKE Kerbal Space Program GREAT AGAIN. Let's Build a Wall around the Moon and let the Moon's invisible Aliens to PAY for it* !
Mun*
And I thought Trump was crazy...
XD
Alright! I finished the design in under a minute time to launch!
*Launchpad loads
well. I failed the challenge :/
Burak Baggins my life
Someone will probably do it in 5 minutes.
I know I aim to beat 3 minutes, but that'll require a bit of luck with suicide burns.
Good luck
big fan BTW :)
+Scott Manley YES SCOTT
How about a twitch stream solely about this challenge?
Scott Manley You could probably calculate those suicide burns and get the closest distance using the amazing power of math! (And a little physics of course)
You know, kerbals consistently survive falling into water at terminal velocity. You could make jeb jump from his pod after the parachute opens.
I just want to thank you Scott for sharing the Avorion video with us. I ended up getting a copy of it and uploading my first video on it soon and I'm having a blast with the game it's really great game and would of not found it if it was not for ya!
is "Fly really, really quickly" the new outro for speedrun videos? because i think it fits KSP pretty well
I think it fits human-like flying in general
The rule should be that you have to plant a flag. Then you can't cheat on the landing.
i did it in 5 seconds with teleportation hacks
Wait, what hacks?!
I've been trying to use HyperEdit with little successes...
MrHSX HyperEdit is easy to use!!! And 1.2 has its own cheats, no hyperedit needed!
DorianTM Eh, I don't think KSPs inbuilt 'hyperedit' is any good. If I try to set an orbit of exactly 100km, it just says "orbit too low", and puts me at like 250km. Hyperedit is just more versatile :D
That's why you build a Station in space with docking ports. Fuel and Re-Fuel. Also helps that the game has fuel 'mining' so you don't always have to launch from Kerbin if you build reusables.
***** Now I feel like a noob.
You should do another category where the ingame time actually matters, I feel like it is kind of weird that part of your speedrun is dependant on how fast you can timewarp.
He did that a year ago: Moon landing and back in 1 hour ingame time.
That's the only kind of speedrun that really matters. Who cares how fast you can assemble a rocket or how much you can time accelerate? The interesting thing is how fast the rocket you design can fly.
Why not just invent a new term, instead of completely redefining what a speedrun means just for KSP.
NeonGen2000 in game time and RTA are both timing methods used in various speed games, and most games also have multiple categories of various seriousness.
as cool as that might be, timewarp is literally what makes 90% of traveling in ksp easy, it would take hours, even days to get to the mun in In-game time, also other speedruns are also dependent on the time warp since its part of the reason that makes the speedrun shorter..
Awesome.
I think the speed run should include a flag plant tough. (that wasnt a stable landing)
no need to be really stable, kerbal can jump out, plant flag and jetpack to the hatch of the stumbling rocket really quickly with good jetpack skills. Fire engine when rocket is not pointing down and you can get it off the ground.
Hamachingo, that would be fair enough.
Even if the rocket fell over, a good maneuver with the SAS or RCS can aid a lift off. Might make you dizzy but it's doable.
I don't care, IMO everything would be fair as long the flag stands on the moon and keeps standing.
That was so fun! I really enjoyed the video and it was so interesting to see someone speed running a game like Kerbal Space Program. Really good video, I'd like to see more!
"Extreme Lithobraking"... :-)
Kerbal speed runs actually sound as awesome as Mario speederuns and stuff like that. Can't wait to see more from all over the community.
Thank you for making this video, i really appreciate the time you took too make this video possible. It taught me something very interesting.
Using that design for getting to the Mun and back. Wish me luck!
Good Luck!
Scott, sometimes you really make my day. Thanks :)
Imagine if you sat your buddy infront of ksp for the first time and he did exactly this
awesome run dude that was very impressive
*deploys parachute* “Why do you fall so slowly”
It would be awesome to see Scott Manley or someone at Gamesdonequick, doing KSP :P visiting all the planets the fastest etc.
Woo! Go Scott!
Execute those pro speedrun strats!
;-P
welcome to the world of speedrunning, where failure is the norm and disappointment is just another word for joy
CMON SCOTT. You started your speedrun now that AGDQ is already over?? I'd love to see you there xD
+Eduardo Miziara I couldn't go there anyway with my day job.
There's another GDQ this summer!
Accursed real life, getting in the way of cool stuff...
That was so smooth!
I haven't started playing Kerbal because I don't quite have the time. But this video sure tempted me to start anyway...
Great attempt to speed run.
omg Scott you know Cody! I've been watching you guys for years and I didn't think you knew about each other.
5:20 is actually a beautiful time. It's exactly the time of the fastest 147 in history. Look for it in TH-cam and be ready to get your mind blown.
That was great, you should dedicate your entire channel to doing just this.
Keep the challenges going
Looks much better than the first video :D
bro youre a legend
You make it seem sooooo easy...!
A new twist on an old mission. I lost count how many times I've landed on the Mun. Scotty should try doing it completely reusable - see how fast he can do that...
Would love to see you do more KSP videos
I was eating while watching this, and halfway through I noticed I was eating extremely fast
Fly really really quickly (in your best Jeremy Clarkson impersonation)
Scott Manley at SGDQ? Yes... YES?!
To decrease the time, you could always cut the parachute at the end due to the fact that you are going into water. It's not much faster, but this is a speedrun after all.
very nice vid
For people looking to really minmax, you might fiddle with the parachute deploy altitude. A few seconds in the VAB might save you dozens of seconds at the end.
That was pretty cool. I'd love to see a (full) tech(-tree) speedrun :D
If I am not mistaken, he did that a couple years ago in 2 or 3 launches. An updated run would be cool.
That high speed crash into the mountains may have been survivable had the Kerbal been on the laddar at impact.
im scared of this mans pure power
Now for a hardcore challenge: Two minutes without time warp.
I have to try this at least once!
This needs to have a spicy name that people can throw around to reference it. Like... Moon Bounce. "I did the Moon Bounce in 4:34."
Much like the later Jackie Chan films, the best bit is watching it all go wrong at the end of the video :)
To eliminate the wobbles in the stock game, attach a landing strut to the FL-T800 and/or any other wobbly parts. Landing struts are auto-strut locked to the heaviest part. A couple LT-2 struts are also long enough to give a bit more crash tolerance while touching down. It would take a few more seconds to place the struts (~5 seconds based on this video), but 4x physics would be available.
For suicide burns, the craft info on the map shows an estimated burn time to 0 m/s. Placing a maneuver node a little above the surface of the target gives a reference point, and right-clicking on the maneuver node while it isn't editable keeps the time to maneuver visible for easier warping.
Right-clicking any mouse-over info in the map keeps the it visible, which is very useful when fine-tuning maneuver nodes, so you don't have to leave the maneuver node editor to see the closest approach, periapsis, etc..
The heeeell. He didnt even need to orbit maneuvers!!
Waiting for someone to do it with sepratrons or some other nonsense in like 2 minutes...
"Jeb, wha-what are you doing here? I thought you went on a mission to the Mun?"
"Yeah, I just got back."
"BACK!? It's only been TWO DAYS!"
"I know, told Bill I could do it. Heh, that's five bucks for me."
This seems more of a challenge of how well can you use time acceleration.
Scott Manley for AGDQ, here we go! :3
Rofl at "Fly really really quickly".
No idea why but that just cracked me up.
I started using the spotlight mounted to the bottom of my craft to help with landing on the dark sides of kerbestial bodies
Scott made landing on the Mun like that look way too easy. Since I'm not going for fastest time I went into a Mun orbit before retrograding to the surface but I always seem to be landing at an angle and without RCS jets to keep it upright I crash every time lol
you could set the parachute deployment altitude to 650 to save like 10 seconds or so. Very easy to do that in flight.
surpised he is not using the disigns we discussed on tuesday "THE CHAIR" is calling!
I can appreciate your enthusiasm for KSP, but I have more fun with "Orbiter."
I was so sick of playing in the dark, I downloaded scaterer just to activate the "light from space thing"
impressive
I would've loved to see the moon landing like this,
"Alright, we're about to land, we've landed, alright lets get outta here."
I'd suggest autostrutting the top part to heaviest. Wouldn't take many seconds, and may let you time warp at 4x from the start.
it's funny watching this now.. I've been playing kerbal about 2 weeks and i didn't know about nodes or how to set up maneuvers.. I've got a few kerbins stranded on the mun atm waiting for a rescue mission atm lol
Alright, now Duna and back, and EVE and back, GO!
Screw flying safe! Let's fly to the mun and back in minutes
and here I am using parachute to land on the mun for the first time
Scott! You should try a brachistochrone trajectory in ksp. Should be the fastest rout between 2 points. Love your channel!
Brandon Vincent vsauce
Bleach You got it! :)
This is waaaaay faster then i will ever attempt to land on the Moon. Mun. I mean Mun. I play this game for years now and i still do not have the Reflexes or the Timing for that. :-)
Hey Scott, when you put the decoupler on the heatshield within the first minute of the game you said "oh crap, not on their properly". As far as I can tell, it was. Heatshields have two nodes on their underside, one further down than the other, that allows you to connect to a heatshield (and detach correctly too) without having to use the ugly shroud AND without there being a large gap between the shield and the lower part.
I literally never use the node which auto-generates the shroud, I think it looks far too ugly and using the other node allows for slightly more compact (and pretty) designs.
Awesome
you can get to the mun and back in 5 minutes and 20 seconds while I still struggle even building a rocket
On a sidenote: XCom 2's Long War 2 mod is out - might we be seeing a run? Last spring I watched all of your Xcom and Xenonauts stuff and this time of year is getting me in a mood...
Scott, do you think you'll be doing any future modded playthroughs? Your interstellar playthrough really got me to fall in love with KSP!
Chewyshoot He's currently doing Galileo Conquest.
He's currently doing one. The videos are clearly visible on the channel. He's also done 4 total KSP Series (not counting vids like this), including Interstellar Quest. If you liked that one I'd check the others out.
Similar challenge for the Dark side of the moon would be great.
after Iron sky, "the dark side of the moon" sounds so evil
Hey, love your vids on KSP, im wondering if you could make one that is as "efficient" as possible to get to, land and return from mun with all the science equipment intact on landing on/near KSC?
Im finding it hard to get my Science JR to survive reentry... even with a low orbit around Kerbin.
Or if you could give some tips.
there's a radar altimeter in the cockpit view of the command pod
NEVER....the 5min barrier is as solid as the sound barrier and the sub 5min mile...it can never be broken
i would love to see nasa do missions like this xD
I would love to see you at AGDQ!!!!!!!!!!
There's a surface altimeter inside the MK1 capsule!
If you press C and view in the cockpit there's actually the height dail that shows the height relative to the ground... :-) So no need to worry about being too low when doing the suicide burn. :-)
Scott Manley sets the par time.
gotta go fast!
Drop the heat shield during your parachute descent....you get an extra 1+m/s in a full expanded parachute descent.
Scott, you could shave a lot of time off if you spent more time stabilizing it in the assembly building, then you could x4 warp and potentially save a lot of time.
if you manage to land on water on the next run try not opening the parachute until you're like 5000 meters above probably would save some time if you're going too fast spin around a bit to slow yourself down
3:05 You don't know resets until you've at least seen someone attempt Super Metroid any%. Not only are there a lot, they're spread out throughout the length of a 42-min game, that will gladly kill you a the 40-min mark. (Just watch the SGDQ 2016 speedrun race)
+octet33 I remember beating Super Metroid in 1:45 with no glitches. I thought I was fast.
KSP mun% WR PogChamp
Gravity well Time Warp?
It's Astounding...!
Adjust opening of the parachute height to less and land in sea. That could help.
Then there is me tryin to get in orbit in 2 hours
Move fast and break things!
