I have got into kerbin and kerbol (the sun) orbit, but then i discovered alt f12, so now i spend my time teleporting stupid bases, landers, space stations, and sojourners everywhere but Dres. I also recently built a workin walking mech from scratch, and is does not need a KAL to work either!

Does anyone know what a krakendrive is? Because 1.10 broke them all, invisible wheels, phantom forces, all of them, gone.

yeah the older vesions are glitchy like that, and before 1.1 if any saves or craft were updated to a new version (not meant to scare anyone) would become corrupt.In my files I have 24 crash logs. has anyone encountered any krakens? (not nescecarily the original one, but any physics glitch known as a kraken
My game sometimes suddendly closes and nothing is saved
About 7 “Hell Krakens” (the one that makes your height bar go to 111,111,111 or 666,666,666 etc.)
When I load a quicksave or played a regular game, I could not go to the space center or recover vessel, it happened about 50 times.
All space crafts broken, and can't open.
One time on my save on 0.24 was broken due to vessel getting glitched and stuck in runaway, thus making runaway impossible to active, and somehow it also glitched out the rocket pad.
It's because my last computer had 700 mb RAM, 10 GB space. and I made my save go throught lot of versions (0.24 0.25, 0.90 1.05 1.1 and then it broke)
Also I used cheats (i was too stupid and lazy to play without cheats) and I had like 13 mods.
Now I have 8 GB RAM, 1.5 TB space, and my new save (without cheats now) has no problems.
EDIT: I quoted the wrong post, sorry
1.10 has almost no krakens, my kraken drive is a dumb hunk of metal now.

I was wondering weather or no to get this hame. is it worth it?
Yes it is, very fun, entertaining, educational, AND you can send anything to orbit with MOAR BOOSTERS. And build a car that turns into a plane that turns into a robot that goes to space, then explodes

Yeah, krakendrive is mostly dead. I look to danny2462 with hope, but even he cannot banish the power of bugfixes. Its possible to get a much weaker kraken force from docking ports, but our beautiful creations built on wheels, blood, and struts are forever laid to rest. A tragedy, to be sure, but at least now we can get on with our lives without the fear of eldrich horrors eating our kerbals.

How to Get Into Orbit
I know that a lot of KSP beginners find it hard to get into orbit, so here is how to achieve orbit.
The Rocket
Stage 3
-Mk16 Parachute
-Command Pod Mk1
-Heat Shield (1.25 meters)
-TD-12 Decoupler
Stage 2
-FL-T400 Liquid Fuel Tank
-LV-909 Liquid Fuel Engine
-TD-12 Decoupler
Stage 1
-FL-T800 Liquid Fuel Tank
-LV-T30 Liquid Fuel Engine
Steps to Get to Orbit
Launch
-Press Z to put the throttle up to the max
-Then, press space to launch
Accelerate to 100 m/s
-Then, slowly start pitching to 10 degrees East
1st Stage Seperation
-At around 20,000 meters, the first stage will run out of juice, when this happens press pace to jettison it, then space again to activate the second stage.
Let Your Apoapsis Get Just Above 70,000 Meters
-Once this happens, press X to cut the throttle
-Then, point prograde
Coast Until +T 30 Seconds to Apoapsis
-At +T 30 seconds to apoapsis press Z to perform a burn.
-Continue the burn until the periapsis is more than 70,000 meters
Congrats! You Are in Orbit!
-Do science, EVAs, or just relax
Returning to Kerbin
Coast Until You Are Near the Highest Point in Your Orbit
-Point retrograde
-Press Z to put the throttle up
-Continue the burn until You are either A: out of fuel, or B: On a sub-orbital trajectory to Kerbin
Jettison the Second Stage
-By pressing space
Once Safe to Deploy Parachute While in Kerbin's Atmosphere
-Press space to deploy the chute
Ya! You did it!!!

I wholeheartedly agree, but how else do you get a badly made walking mech to Gilly?

Every Saturday, me and my family do KSP together. Last time, I accidentally instructed them to make a rocket that could hold all 5 of us. We did, but… I forgot about this part. I put a mobile science container (which can hold 2 kerbels) in the SERVICE MODULE, meaning that it was jettisoned before reentry. And, due to that, I did not put a heat shield on it. They burnt up upon reentry. My 5-year-old sister has not lived me down for it.

Hey! I am attempting a 5 Kerbel Mun landing today. Does anyone know if a Hitch-Hiker Storage Container with a heat shield will burn up upon reentry?

According to the wiki, the hitchhiker can withstand 2000 K before BOOM Hey! I am attempting a 5 Kerbel Mun landing today. Does anyone know if a Hitch-Hiker Storage Container with a heat shield will burn up upon reentry?
2000 K = 3140 F = 1726 C
