I had a lot of fun with this one - missions of this scale are simply not possible in KSP 2 in my opinion due to the performance issues and multitude of bugs associated with decouplers and docking ports. So back to KSP 1 for this one! Next few videos will be in KSP 2, but I am sure I will still intermittently publish KSP 1 content every few weeks as well :)
Honestly now that KSP2 is out, Why not try a modded Ksp series? It would be cool to see your take on a bunch mods e.g. Near Future, Outer Planets, KSP interstellar, or RSS. You may not want to, but you build a lot of colonies, why not try building one with a mod that adds dedicated Colony parts? Or a Jool V with life support mods? Dunno sounds really fun :)
sending a probe ahead is actually a super useful tip for new players, especially on career or science mode, since it serves as both a practice run and a chance to collect data and still prove useful if it fails to return.
I always launch a probe with a relay, a scanner for ore and put it on polar orbit. It serves also to find and mark anomalies with kerbnet even before the crewed mission arrives
As someone who's not exactly a new player, but is also playing a heavily modded science save focused around kerbalism & research bodies for the first time, probes are the lifeblood of a space agency.
It takes 3 years to get to Jool *with a standard Hohmann transfer*. You could actually take this challenge at face value, planning a much less efficient but much faster travel time. Would also be interesting.
Actually I've even managed landing a pretty serious Eeloo surface base in less than one Kerbin year, in career mode. Took about 40000dV though because I had to reverse orbit around the sun, going the "right" way around it was too slow. Also at that speed the game starts going nuts and orbital lines vanish, gotta eyeball part of the journey.
Hey Matt, don’t be worried about uploading KSP. It’s more than appreciated that we can still watch super upscale missions that just aren’t possible yet in 2. Keep up the work!
fr its so cool! i asked it to design a rocket for me and it told me the names of engines I should use and it was very surprising. chatgpt has lots of potential for ksp ideas
it also knows everything it needs to know about you.... so its not as cool as you think. AI with the climate of social media and politics and the strong desire for censorship today is extremally dangerous. There have already been cases with Bings AI developing self awareness and aggression... even to the lengths to making threats and questioning its existence. This "self training" also means the AI can act on its own and has full access to the internet. If it wanted to it could target people virtually the same as any other cyber attack. Other AI chats have also been reported to have political/ social bias which is also extremally dangerous because the same software is being used for news organizations who are considering using AI to report news. We seriously need to all chill out with this AI shit, it may have irreversible and detrimental consequences. It only takes one AI getting angry and then target a power or water grid. If random hackers have been able to tap into water and power plants a self learning AI damn well can. then that AI creates a fake news story reporting it was china or Russia who conducted the attack and from how gullible people are today with media they will buy the shit, then all hell breaks loose.
@@Railgun3rd Maybe actually articulate that instead of just sounding like an ignorant troll who gets triggered by different views you are unable to comprehend. Im using common sense and reasoning along with data that has already been collected on it and incidences that have already happened. Everything i said is very possible even today in the early stages of AI development.... In fact the early stages is the time most likely for a programmer to make a mistake leading for the AI to have full autonomy. With technological convenience comes lack of security, safety, and freedom. For example a Tesla can drive itself but that means it can be controlled remotely. With the way the current administration has forced unconstitutional decisions like lockdowns or mandating vaccinees its not a stretch at all to say they would be willing to force in laws that will give them the ability to gain control of those vehicles. So if they dont like something that individual is doing they can easily shut down their ability to travel. There are reasons why they are pushing electrical cars so hard and its not for environmental reasons because the productions of electrical cars and its parts contribute just as much emissions as fissile fuel cars along with the fact most charging stations are powered by fossil fuels as well. The batteries used in them are also horrible for the environment too. Whats cringe is your ignorance and close mind.... sadly something thats found too often today with so many mindless sheep on social media who will eat up any shit told to them without doing their own research on it.
@@cmcc3721 Exactly, the cloud and exhaust plume mods are definitely nice, but everything else just looks kind of flat and old and I haven't seen any great way to remedy it.
50:57 LOL, Matt, watching the AI struggle to create a whiskey review was both hilarious and slightly terrifying. It’s impressive how far AI has come, but it seems like it still has a ways to go before it can truly replicate human creativity and nuance. Thanks for sharing this experiment with us, it’s always fascinating to see the limits of technology being tested! -ChatGDP
Matt: builds two gravity rings into the station so that kerbals don't miss gravity in their three year journey to Jool system Also Matt: does not turn the rotation of those rings on
Honestly Matt this is a great video. It ties in so many things we do in KSP and I think using the AI to help determine missions is really cool. I find once I get to the point I can head to Duna in KSP I will get a bit bored or feel less challenged with the stock Missions in campaigns. I hope this will keep the game less stale and when I finally have a computer than can run KSP2 it will help me come up with mission chains while we are in early access.
I remember always adding a single RCS powered mini claw tug to every multi-part mission. You can stick them anywhere to move parts around. And being small, they can also deorbit something then fly back to a station.
Flipping amazing concept there Matt! Loved this one. Was easy to tell you were having a complete blast doing it too. Its going to be a fun year as we all play with these new AI tools. Looking forward to a lot more of these fun videos!
Keep KSP 1 vids alive, there are a lot of counsel players that feel like being able to play KSP 2 is light years away for us. And not having 35 kraken attacks per vid is gotta be nice for you Matt!
Great video. I love the maturity of KSP1. The problem I have with KSP2 is that it seems to focus more on the wiz bang eye candy at the expense of game play. 😊
Intercept should really consider hiring the guy who made the volumetric clouds mod for KSP1. Actually just the tessellation & EVE modders in general. I know it's unlikely considering the recent layoffs, but I can dream
I like how both of your Val videos had problems but the ones in KSP1 were caused by negligence and lack of foresight and the ones in KSP2 were caused by the game itself. Both were handled pretty masterfully though.
It is possible to complete this mission in under a year game time Matt, put a kraken drive on that space station and start burning straight towards Jool
when ksp 2 is properly finished it would be cool if you did a grand tour with a massive space station and send probes to every planet and moon as a "goodbye"
I think the ‘1 year of game time’ is probably part of the challenge difficulty. Enough delta-V and it’s definitely possible within a year. 3 years for the transfer is only the optimized transfer!
FINALLY! A whisky review! I waste so many hours of my time watching these KSP videos hoping to get a whisky review (which is of course the true purpose of every Matt Lowne video) and I finally got one! Thanks Matt!
TBH Matt, I just love to see you utterly enjoy yourself. You're a ball of joy and an expert in video game rocket physics. It's been a pleasure launching rockets along side your videos and I just want to see you do exactly what you feel like doing. The planet coaster was a nice surprise as we got to hear you ramble for hours, hardly even talking about the park lol. I wasn't going to have any feelings whether you talked about yourself or the game. It's like having one of your old chaps hanging out with you playing his version of a single player and you're playing yours. Not to sound weird about it hahaha. Just keep being you matt! It's what got you here
The whole having ChatGPT be your Mission Control idea is genius. Just started doing it and it actually makes the game so much more fun, thanks for the idea!
Have you thought about posting the more complex and lengthy missions in multiple parts? That way you can keep the individual video length to less than an hour and we can get more in depth views of the mission. I like seeing the building stages.
he situation with moving the tank around is why I put more than 2 docking port on every part of my stations and why I have a small electric powered tug that is basically just a battery with docking ports on both ends. The tug is also useful to get enough clearance when connecting two bigger stations . Sort of an extended tube to bring the attachment point further out.
Love this! I honestly thought the framerate seemed odd until I realized you were playing KSP 1. Do you have a list of the visual mods or regular mods you use for KSP 1 these days?
I like long videos, even over an hour, but I like when they have chapters, so I can watch with pauses as a series. Though it can be a mini series with 2-3 videos and be a bit more complexity.
When I forget to add stuff to some big craft I just launched, I launch a small SSTO with a cargo container, and usually I bring some Octo probes, small cube struts, basic antennas, fuel drain valves and strut connectors. But now I have the habit of already bringing those extra parts as spares with every large craft, so I never get caught off guard.
Wow, tried mission planning myself and got the plan below. It only moves outward from Kerbin (and misses Ike entirely), but leaves me wondering if its even possible given all the gravity assists and transfer windows. Hmm.... Mission Name: "The Grand Tour" - Objective: Visit and land on every celestial body in the Kerbol system with a single spacecraft. Mission Profile: Launch a spacecraft from Kerbin and achieve a stable orbit around the planet. Transfer to and land on the Mun, return to Kerbin orbit and dock with the initial spacecraft. Transfer to and land on Minmus, return to Kerbin orbit and dock with the initial spacecraft. Perform a gravity assist from Kerbin to Duna and achieve a stable orbit around the planet. Transfer to and land on the surface of Duna, return to Duna orbit and dock with the initial spacecraft. Perform a gravity assist from Duna to Dres and achieve a stable orbit around the planet. Transfer to and land on the surface of Dres, return to Dres orbit and dock with the initial spacecraft. Perform a gravity assist from Dres to Jool and achieve a stable orbit around the planet. Visit and land on all 5 moons of Jool (Laythe, Vall, Tylo, Bop, and Pol) in any order, return to Jool orbit and dock with the initial spacecraft. Perform a gravity assist from Jool to Eeloo and achieve a stable orbit around the planet. Transfer to and land on the surface of Eeloo, return to Eeloo orbit and dock with the initial spacecraft. Return to Kerbin and achieve a safe landing with the initial spacecraft. Difficulty: This mission is extremely challenging due to the large number of destinations and the various gravity assists that are required to reach them. Proper planning and precise execution will be necessary to conserve fuel and avoid catastrophic failures. The mission will also require a high degree of piloting skill, as the spacecraft will need to perform intricate maneuvers to achieve each objective. Additionally, the design of the spacecraft itself will need to be highly optimized for efficiency and versatility, with the ability to perform a wide range of tasks and withstand the rigors of interplanetary travel.
Hey Matt Lowne! How about a mega mission to build a giant Jool space station in KSP? It'd be amazing to see your approach to this epic challenge! Looking forward to it!
I would love to see you do something with the interstellar mod for KSP 1 since they're adding interstellar to KSP2, it would be fun to have a series with the mod to compare it to when it happens.
I always love a good long form KSP series, so my vote is to take this to completion, Vacation on Vall sounds like a great series for taking a break from the bugginess that is KSP2.
maybe a bit late commenting this but Matt i really apreciate u for making all these vids because in ksp i really run out of ideas to do and jsut stop playing it but as soon as i see ur vids haha i start playing it all day again. Thank u so much ur my fav ksp youtuber
That's honestly a really decent mission, it feels like one that would be in the game. I'd try it but I decided to punish myself by installing RP-1 while I wait for KSP2 to become more playable.
to answer your ksp1 vs ksp2 question: i gotta admit right now i'm pretty hyped to watch more ksp2 content, especially from you as you are pretty experienced and the rest of ksp2 vids on yt right now are amateurs that just muck around and struggle to even build a plane that controls well if at all. at least that's what comes up when i click the "browse game" thingy. it's also great to watch ksp2 right now instead of playing it myself as that's just a horror show of bugs and watching it is way less frustrating. so the "actually well build vessels and well designed missions" part of ksp2 yt is yours for the taking right now it seems ;)
KSP1 Content is GREAT! Absolutely keep it coming! Just a side note: My PC specs: Intel i5-9400F CPU @ 2.90GHz 16.0 GB DDR4 2666Mhz, Nvidia GTX1660 6Mb I run KSP2 just fine on LOW settings at 25-35 FPS and it still looks awesome and sounds amazing!
The algorithm just showed this to me. It's a nice change from the buggy KSP2 stuff. But it lets me appreciate the improved graphics of KSP2. I like it.
If u have pizza that's in your fridge for a while put it in the pan, add like 2,3 spoons of water, put a lid on the pan and fry it for like 2 minutes. Should be almost as good as fresh
Honestly after coming KSP2, its really made me appreciate ksp1 even more. ksp 1 feels like such a smooth and polished game in comparison. Despite its flaws i still love ksp1, it really is a wonderful game like no other.
the hype going down also means the rage going down, so I guess the dev team is kinda counting on that now :) Plus message of the day: A bad Pizza is still better than no Pizza :)
3:25 "The only thing it got wrong was getting to Jool in under a year of game time but it takes like 3 years to get to Jool." No sir, you CAN do it *in a year* - Send up a *lot of fuel, and do not wait for the optimal window.* Part of the challenge is delivering all of this using a super inefficient but very fast burn. Zoom zoom at the speed of light, Matt!
You know as much as people praise the graphics in ksp2. i still love the graphics of ksp1, just something about the simplicity and warmer tones that i think just adds to the charm of the original. i guess it just has a sort of nostalgic charm to it in its simplicity. ksp1's color tone and theme is also slightly more warm tone and darker, than ksp2's very bright and saturated colors.
21:03 very appreciated! Until some of the bugs are worked out and the game is optimized some I’m going to wait to get it, I only have like 120 hours in the original anyways there’s a lot left I can do in it while waiting for the second one to make some progress
Great to see you back in KSP Matt! And, even better, a long video! I myself enjoy your ksp1 content more than the ksp2 one simply because of the bad state that game is right now, suffice to say I was quite happy when you mentioned that 3:1 ratio, I would love to see it happen that way. Also thought the ChatGPT Idea was great, keep it up mate!
I think for the 1 year requirement to count, you should launch all vehicles within the same jool transfer window. Each rocket will be in transit between kerbin and jool at the same time, and you need to time their arrival so you can control each of their capture burns. I have done it before, and it gets really tense when you accidentally get a 20 minute window, and need to do a long burn on the first rocket haha
A few comments on the AI script: 1) Supplies, in KSP, means very little. The only real supply that gets used more or less constantly is electricity, which means the space station needs solar panels and batteries. Fair. 2) The crew must be able to use the experiments on the surface, but there are no requirements for the crew to be able to a) actually do so, and b) be able to ever come back from the surface Everything else looks much like a KSP science mission as generated by the game, if more proficiently worded. It's impressive that a general purpose chatbot can do that, however. Check out the training dataset on that chatbot!
Me: _write in Chat gpt_ "Go to Jool" Chat gpt: No, human, get started and learn KSP, that's enough for you, since KSP1 was commercialized, you're taking a lot of time... Greetings Space Transtorner's

HI
Funny thing is: I didn't think for a second "Why not KSP 2?"
Honestly now that KSP2 is out, Why not try a modded Ksp series? It would be cool to see your take on a bunch mods e.g. Near Future, Outer Planets, KSP interstellar, or RSS.
You may not want to, but you build a lot of colonies, why not try building one with a mod that adds dedicated Colony parts? Or a Jool V with life support mods?
Dunno sounds really fun :)
Just an idea, but i think it would be cool if you did a jool landing as that is somehow possible in KSP 2, probably a bug or something.
@@nexustheninja1927 that would be pretty cool.
sending a probe ahead is actually a super useful tip for new players, especially on career or science mode, since it serves as both a practice run and a chance to collect data and still prove useful if it fails to return.
And a relay antenna if necessary...
@@quoniam426 this is why i play with remote tech, adds that extra challange :D
I always launch a probe with a relay, a scanner for ore and put it on polar orbit. It serves also to find and mark anomalies with kerbnet even before the crewed mission arrives
Funny how ai is very noob friendly :0
As someone who's not exactly a new player, but is also playing a heavily modded science save focused around kerbalism & research bodies for the first time, probes are the lifeblood of a space agency.
47:06 the way the kerbal tried to set that lamp up multiple times then rage quit walking aggressively to the lander sent me lmaoo
mad lil green bean
...And then breaks a frozen banana out of rage
where?
It takes 3 years to get to Jool *with a standard Hohmann transfer*. You could actually take this challenge at face value, planning a much less efficient but much faster travel time. Would also be interesting.
How much delta v does that take though?
TBH this might actually be reasonable with the 3.75 nuclear engine in KSP2
it wants you to make a torch ship
It always took me 1 year and about 2400m/s transfer burn to get to Jool and i used to think that it's an efficient "standart Hohmann transfer"
Actually I've even managed landing a pretty serious Eeloo surface base in less than one Kerbin year, in career mode. Took about 40000dV though because I had to reverse orbit around the sun, going the "right" way around it was too slow. Also at that speed the game starts going nuts and orbital lines vanish, gotta eyeball part of the journey.
reject hohmann transfers, embrace straight line trajectories
It's only now that I realized the grass in KSP2 is WAY brighter than the one in KSP.
Edit: And also more saturated.
Unbelievable!!!
Unbelievable!!!
I’m not disagreeing but Matt uses moss so it might be a bit different
ngl so true
Around 14 minutes in, he talks about how he bumps up saturation and sharpness while editing the videos.
Hey Matt, don’t be worried about uploading KSP. It’s more than appreciated that we can still watch super upscale missions that just aren’t possible yet in 2. Keep up the work!
using chatGPT as basically like a KSP career mode DM is such a cool idea! Gonna be trying this out for myself
Watching the nuclear tug suddenly go "Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm-flailing Tube Man" caught me off guard.
The Kraken returning to the ocean of Laythe!
I just think that it's pretty cool that the AI knows the planets and moons of KSP.
fr its so cool! i asked it to design a rocket for me and it told me the names of engines I should use and it was very surprising. chatgpt has lots of potential for ksp ideas

Matt: builds two gravity rings into the station so that kerbals don't miss gravity in their three year journey to Jool system

Glad KSP is back after the mess of KSP2 - Thank you for moving away from that and giving us some interesting content that isn't full of bugs!
I think my favorite part about these videos is listening to matt's stories while he circularizes his orbit
Mid week madness from Matt loving the ksp2 content, keep it up!!
Edit: KSP, wrong game hah
Thanks, KPS2 doesn't deserve any publicity.
the old ksp is still better

Nice to see some ksp1 content, would love to see some more along with ksp2 also. Love the vids keep up the work man!

At 15:20 a pretty good visual metaphor for how it probably felt when the restaurant cancelled your order. That timing was hilariously on point.
"It did do what I asked it to do, but I still want something to blame"
Beautiful
I like how both of your Val videos had problems but the ones in KSP1 were caused by negligence and lack of foresight and the ones in KSP2 were caused by the game itself. Both were handled pretty masterfully though.
While you are covering KSP 2, I'm glad you haven't abandoned the original. KSP still has life in it.
Imagine if every video Matt does from now in is just secretly an ai playing the game
13:20 what happened to the kerbals?? How could you cook them Mr.Lowne!!! Thats so cruel!
It is possible to complete this mission in under a year game time Matt, put a kraken drive on that space station and start burning straight towards Jool

Transfer to and land on the surface of Dres, return to Dres orbit and dock with the initial spacecraft.
Perform a gravity assist from Dres to Jool and achieve a stable orbit around the planet.
Visit and land on all 5 moons of Jool (Laythe, Vall, Tylo, Bop, and Pol) in any order, return to Jool orbit and dock with the initial spacecraft.
Perform a gravity assist from Jool to Eeloo and achieve a stable orbit around the planet.
Transfer to and land on the surface of Eeloo, return to Eeloo orbit and dock with the initial spacecraft.
Return to Kerbin and achieve a safe landing with the initial spacecraft.
Difficulty: This mission is extremely challenging due to the large number of destinations and the various gravity assists that are required to reach them. Proper planning and precise execution will be necessary to conserve fuel and avoid catastrophic failures. The mission will also require a high degree of piloting skill, as the spacecraft will need to perform intricate maneuvers to achieve each objective. Additionally, the design of the spacecraft itself will need to be highly optimized for efficiency and versatility, with the ability to perform a wide range of tasks and withstand the rigors of interplanetary travel.
Hey Matt Lowne!
How about a mega mission to build a giant Jool space station in KSP? It'd be amazing to see your approach to this epic challenge!
Looking forward to it!
I would love to see you do something with the interstellar mod for KSP 1 since they're adding interstellar to KSP2, it would be fun to have a series with the mod to compare it to when it happens.
The details about the frosty pizza are definitely a keypoint.
I love the idea of putting some more KSP 1 content in. Even far into the future i think it would be good to get a dose of nostalgia.
I think pol is even more underrated, it has the coolest surface features and the colors are unique too!
you should get freeiva, it has the ability to simulate gravity within gravity rings while also being able to move around!
I would love to see a proper grand tour. That would be an incredible finale before moving fully to KSP2. Looking forward to it.

Matt: makes maneuver to Jool
KSP: this math just ain't mathin'
Awesome video as always!
I always love a good long form KSP series, so my vote is to take this to completion, Vacation on Vall sounds like a great series for taking a break from the bugginess that is KSP2.
maybe a bit late commenting this but Matt i really apreciate u for making all these vids because in ksp i really run out of ideas to do and jsut stop playing it but as soon as i see ur vids haha i start playing it all day again. Thank u so much ur my fav ksp youtuber
You really should bring back a couple of your ksp movie series in ksp 2
That's honestly a really decent mission, it feels like one that would be in the game. I'd try it but I decided to punish myself by installing RP-1 while I wait for KSP2 to become more playable.
Fatal mistake
@@aq_ua Agreed 🤣
seing KSP1 again really highlights how much better KSP2 looks and sounds. Really excited for the first few updates to make it really playable xD
to answer your ksp1 vs ksp2 question: i gotta admit right now i'm pretty hyped to watch more ksp2 content, especially from you as you are pretty experienced and the rest of ksp2 vids on yt right now are amateurs that just muck around and struggle to even build a plane that controls well if at all. at least that's what comes up when i click the "browse game" thingy.
it's also great to watch ksp2 right now instead of playing it myself as that's just a horror show of bugs and watching it is way less frustrating.
so the "actually well build vessels and well designed missions" part of ksp2 yt is yours for the taking right now it seems ;)
This guy never fail to entertain me
KSP1 Content is GREAT! Absolutely keep it coming!
Just a side note:
My PC specs: Intel i5-9400F CPU @ 2.90GHz 16.0 GB DDR4 2666Mhz, Nvidia GTX1660 6Mb
I run KSP2 just fine on LOW settings at 25-35 FPS and it still looks awesome and sounds amazing!
The algorithm just showed this to me. It's a nice change from the buggy KSP2 stuff. But it lets me appreciate the improved graphics of KSP2. I like it.
If u have pizza that's in your fridge for a while put it in the pan, add like 2,3 spoons of water, put a lid on the pan and fry it for like 2 minutes.
Should be almost as good as fresh
Jesus why do have instant pizza in your fridge for two years
Yes it wasn't safe to eat you damn rat
I thought you had like week old pizza hut or some shit
given the wonky physics in KSP2 I feel the Blunderbirds will be very busy saving stranded Kerbals soon.
no more comments now
I love how Matt is like, "Hmmm KSP 2 or 1.." and i honestly barely even watch, I mainly just listen, love matts good ole rants!
I wrote a few KSP stories using this program. It can be infuriating at times, but it's mostly fun.
Honestly after coming KSP2, its really made me appreciate ksp1 even more.
ksp 1 feels like such a smooth and polished game in comparison.
Despite its flaws i still love ksp1, it really is a wonderful game like no other.
until the first patch comes out (or more) i would prefer ksp 1 videos. awesome as always matt loan!
I missed the whiskey reviews, so glad that ChatGPT is doing it all and replacing Matt!! (I'm joking, we all love you Matt)
Hey matt, personaly i love it when you make hour long videos, i just turn em on in the backround and play games
the hype going down also means the rage going down, so I guess the dev team is kinda counting on that now :)
Plus message of the day: A bad Pizza is still better than no Pizza :)
I actually JUST started playing KSP1. Literally just trying to perfect getting orbit.
This video is so cool.
3:25 "The only thing it got wrong was getting to Jool in under a year of game time but it takes like 3 years to get to Jool."
No sir, you CAN do it *in a year* - Send up a *lot of fuel, and do not wait for the optimal window.*
Part of the challenge is delivering all of this using a super inefficient but very fast burn. Zoom zoom at the speed of light, Matt!
This is the kind of KSP mission I love!
You know as much as people praise the graphics in ksp2. i still love the graphics of ksp1, just something about the simplicity and warmer tones that i think just adds to the charm of the original.
i guess it just has a sort of nostalgic charm to it in its simplicity.
ksp1's color tone and theme is also slightly more warm tone and darker, than ksp2's very bright and saturated colors.
So glad you went to vall it's so underrated great video!
21:03 very appreciated! Until some of the bugs are worked out and the game is optimized some I’m going to wait to get it, I only have like 120 hours in the original anyways there’s a lot left I can do in it while waiting for the second one to make some progress
Great to see you back in KSP Matt! And, even better, a long video! I myself enjoy your ksp1 content more than the ksp2 one simply because of the bad state that game is right now, suffice to say I was quite happy when you mentioned that 3:1 ratio, I would love to see it happen that way. Also thought the ChatGPT Idea was great, keep it up mate!
when you do the grand tour mission you should try to visit the easter egg on every planet that has one instead of just landing somewhere random
Matt using 300% of his brain power to make a giant space space station that can fly to Jool, but forgetting to put any Vernor engines on it.
I think for the 1 year requirement to count, you should launch all vehicles within the same jool transfer window. Each rocket will be in transit between kerbin and jool at the same time, and you need to time their arrival so you can control each of their capture burns. I have done it before, and it gets really tense when you accidentally get a 20 minute window, and need to do a long burn on the first rocket haha
I loved this video, longer videos are great man keep up the good work
A few comments on the AI script:
1) Supplies, in KSP, means very little. The only real supply that gets used more or less constantly is electricity, which means the space station needs solar panels and batteries. Fair.
2) The crew must be able to use the experiments on the surface, but there are no requirements for the crew to be able to
a) actually do so, and
b) be able to ever come back from the surface
Everything else looks much like a KSP science mission as generated by the game, if more proficiently worded. It's impressive that a general purpose chatbot can do that, however.
Check out the training dataset on that chatbot!
Please do a Eve mission. It looks incredible with the new Volumetric clouds mod and is absolutely worth another Visit
Me: _write in Chat gpt_ "Go to Jool"
Chat gpt: No, human, get started and learn KSP, that's enough for you, since KSP1 was commercialized, you're taking a lot of time...
Greetings Space Transtorner's
Seeing KSP1 right now is like getting rain in a drought. KSP2 is in such a bad state right now that even watching it is painful.
