*** replaced Orbiter with Version 2.3 - now with real windows on top ;) ***

Check out our latest project: The Space Launch System

*** Video Tutorial is up! ***

*** UPDATE *** to Version 2.2
A Video Tutorial will follow shortly!

*** Currently the left Payload Bay Door gets ripped off as soon as the Orbiter connects to the External Tank. Unfortunately I did not find a way to fix this yet ***

Hello zebas
You can use the remote controls inside to fly them back to the Launch Platform.
Switch on the merge blocks and it should work!

Hi. How can I reconnect the rockets to take off again?

ouuu sounds even more intense. Awesome! ;D I'm Excited to try! :D

UPDATE
In the last update the creative mode was changed in such a way, that hydrogen tanks will now empty during use - they do not have infinitve fuel inside anymore!!!
Default fill-level was 50% I just "refueled" the tanks to 100% - now it works!
Caution: The External Tank will be empty at around 25km height. You will need the ion thrusters of the orbiter to reach orbit!!!
The world will be updated in a few minutes ;) have fun!

thanks defenately subscribed :) great work!

I tested it a few days ago - it does not work with the current update....Seems that KSW changed the hitbox of the thrusters again, so they destroy the conveyors. I will check that in the next days.
You can try switching off "destructible blocks" for the moment!

Second: The Landing Strip is about one kilometer next to the Launchpad. You can not miss is ;)

also additional question is the Landing Strip already in the map somewhere?

When is the Last Date this was Tested?

Thanks a lot ;) Maybe you will like the Saturn V All-in-One!

And in a few weeks there will be a new world with another Rocket - but this time not an all-in-one model but a version with separate stages......

your the most amazing person my grandma my mom and great grandma saw and worked on the SATURN V launch.

Good Job guys! :) Really like that.

The SRBs are now working again - the STS is now able to reach space, again!

The world has been updated - some bugs fixed
A major update is already planned

FYI: step-by-step-tutorial is a thing now - see pictures and have fun! (:

We are currently working on a picture-by-picture tutorial. So every single step will be explained by a screenshot and a text. It will be up, soon!

Is it possible to make a YouTube video showing how it works? Because I can get it to detach but NOT to make it into space

To make things easier , why dont you make a video please , so we can see. I got confused doing the MLP part. What am I supposed to do because im having issues.

Okay, when I search for block "remote control MLP" nothing shows up. All I see are blocks "remote control ET", and "remote control Orbiter."

It does not disconnect automatically. You have to get the ownership for the MLP. After you started the countdown from the Orbiter's Cockpit, you have to open the control panel via "k" and switch to the MLP (you can do this by choosing it from the drop-down menu in the upper-left corner). Choose the block "remote control MLP" and press "control". You have now control over the MLP although you sit inside the orbiter.
Press Shortcut 4 to view the camera which points to the left SRB. You can now see when the SRBs ignite. As soon as they ignite press shortcut 5 to unlock the landing gear.
Press T to leave the MLP and you will have control over the orbiter, again. Thats it ;)

That did work. It does ignite now, thanks alot. However, the Orbiter landing gear will not disconnect from the MLP. What am I doing wrong here?

The Orbiter landing gear will not disconnect from the MLP. What am I doing wrong here?

Tried it again today. It works when you get the ownership fot the STS via the ET and not the orbiter - so do not sit in the cockpit of the orbiter to get the ownership but the control panel of the ET that faced towards the orbiter

Okay thanks alot for your response. I was actually able to get it working last night but the mobile launch platform wouldn't actually disconnect it was flying through the atmosphere connected to the Orbiter LOL it was actually quite funny.

Okay thanks for your feedback. It worked for a few days but now it seems that the Orbiter and the External Tank have been disconnected (maybe because of last week's update). So the Timers of the Orbiter are not able to connect to the Timers of the SRBs. Therefore they will not ignite. I am still figuring out how to reconnect the ships.

P.S.: No, you will not need a second person to launch it

Also sometimes when you press the launch sequence, it counts down but nothing happens.

I'm pretty sure the directions are wrong, I can't sem to figure out how to get this working. Am I supposed to have a second person helping with launch?

"V" is the standard key to change between first and third person view

thnx very much, can i go in third person?

short version:
1) fly over to the MLP and change ownership to yours
2) enter the Orbiter and press "3" (start launch sequence)
3) switch via "K" to MLP and wait until SRB thrusters fire
4) press "4" to unlock landing gear
5) switch back to Orbiter and enjoy the ride!

i dont understand how it works
