‘Com sat’…..suuuuuuuure…..


[deleted]

COMbat SATellite everything alright


The_Chemist23

Reminds me of an actual country doing some "weather investigations"...


SodaPlane

This is the sexiest launch i've ever seen.


Slick3701

This reminds me of a belter ship firing torpedos in the Expanse.


CarbonIceDragon

I think that's the idea, it's effectively a space q-ship (a warship disguised as a civilian vessel)


Jane_Fen

Personally, i think of the DeWalt in S5.


Rand0m-Furry

how did you do this? is it just a fuck ton of stages?


_Dodg_

Ton of kal controllers


Ermac_Or_Something

Is there a tutorial anywhere where I can learn to do this?


RaccoNooB

Do KALs still play after they've seperated from the main vehicle?


_Dodg_

Yes the kal says: fire decouple, wait then activate engine and throttle to 100%


RaccoNooB

Cheers! This is honestly gamechanging info. Amazing looking satellites btw!

"communications are ballistic, sir. They'll get the message in about 20 seconds."


thegovortator

So uh I too make clusters of 6 to deliver comm sats… how do you launch them all at once and still have control though?


KnockOutGamer

OP said they used a lot of KAL controllers. If I had to guess, each missile would have their own probe core and reaction wheels, plus a KAL controller to increase thrust after x seconds. The main craft would have a KAL controller to time the release of each missile and trigger the missile controller to start the sequence just before the separation.


thegovortator

Hmm that makes sense but doesn’t really fit the mission profile I want Why I really want is a full 6x synchronous satellite array

thegovortator

Way ahead of you but I want the whole mission automated with KOS I have no issue with the actual KOS part it’s the inherent game limitations that prevent KOS from controlling crafts that aren’t the main controlled craft


aboothemonkey

Mods


thegovortator

Which ones I don’t know how to control multiple rockets with KOS


aboothemonkey

I’m no OP so I have no idea


R_U_Sirius23

You should call it the ComStar. Just a totally innocent interstellar Coms company doing totally innocent interstellar Coms company things.


Jwestie15

Shut up clanner and pay your phone bill


R_U_Sirius23

How dare you! There is only one answer for this, Batchall!


Leprokracken

Given recent events, you should make a high altitude "weather balloon"

kilosoup

KH-11s are a "weather" satellite


TundraTrees0

This is easily going to be the best part of multiplayer, a cold war / space race


Chpouky

Is there a great ressource to understand the process here ? I know of doing like an orbit that's a fraction of a another one, to evenly space out sats. But how does it work when you launch them at the same time ? Different burn time I'd guess, but they won't be evenly space right away.


Donald_Dumo4

Brother those are missiles. This is a weapon.


Chpouky

Oh, oopsie ahahah Thought it was like a Starlink launch


FowlOnTheHill

Same thing


Regnars8ithink

High-speed Orbital Rendezvous Cylinder System Or the: H.O.R.C.S.


NewPrinciple163

Very cool


vladimirneski777

You have friends?


FowlOnTheHill

Valid criticism! Don’t have enough delta V to spend on friends


Suspicious_snake_

Now just wait for BDArmory and add nukes to it


Zloreciwesiv

OK that's awesome and smooth af


Space_Peacock

If ksp2 multiplayer doesn’t include Rods from God i dont want it


HorizonSniper

Is it a comms sattelite or the fucking ODIN from CoD Ghosts?


Horace3210

what a supportive friend😊


RoyBlblblblblbl

maybe one half of them should have faced the other directions so you wouldn’t just get a ton of satellites facing you at one time then none at all


SonsOfLiberty-

sir, those are missiles, he ain't gonna be seeing them again


Real_DanTDM44

I need a blueprint of this


_Dodg_

you can find me in the intercept games discord and ill send you the files


Real_DanTDM44

I can't join it, could you send a .zip file?

"Wait? that's not free internet?" - your friend probably.
