Some people are confused about how I wrote this line Pomni says in my "pulling faces" sketch comic:
"How can Jax stand his face breaking all the time" or something to that effect.
It refers to when Jax's character rig switches to the open-mouth, pointy-teeth version of his model. It's a bit meta, but that technique can fall under what 3D animators call "breaking the rig".
It's not why I used it in the comic, though. Why did I make Pomni use the term "break", narratively? It's not technically correct in-universe, because that's just how their cartoon bodies work. But Pomni doesn't understand cartoon logic, yet. That's what the comic was about. Her logic is still human.
so, I like building rockets and getting pretty screenshots. however, I don't really have a place to infodump about my missions. SO say hello to me venting my autism, and some nice looking screencaps
this mission is actually a repeat of a previous mission that I had made not 10 minutes earlier, landing on the moon. however, much to my dismay, I landed on the moon and suddenly realized that I had forgotten an antenna. so uh
goodbye little buddy, rest in pieces.
my follow up mission starts with an added antenna and a little surprise
liftoff
first stage desperation
I don't really have a reason for using those radial decouplers over the ones that hug the spacecraft closer. I just think having them out looks cooler
it's getting a bit warm
preparing for an orbital burn
second to last stage separation
and we can see the surprise
kerbin's first comm relay
it's got potato batteries
I'm playing with a mod called csi tech tree. this makes it so that you have to do unmanned stuff before you can unlock the tech required for manned missions. because of that this mission is but a mere probe. however, the data that they provide will be invaluable to the kerbals' moon manned lander mission
anyways, while my high ass was struggling to type that, we got out to the moon!!!
now to have mechjeb land this beast (never drive high)
lander separation
here's out lander, since I realize it was head to see in the last shot
landing on the dark side
landed and warped to sunrise
time to do science, BITCH
return in like, a few hours (or perhaps days. who knows) for my building of the manned lander
