They have the time to do things like this,,, but dont have the time to redo modeling on the 50 caliber or the p40 engine.  I find that interesting as this rocket in the hanger crap doesnt help the game at all. 

 

Am sure the graphic Artist who did the Christmas rocket should  be put to work straight away recoding the damage model or the simple job of redoing the whole engine limits system

Yes, they have time to do this.  It’s probably better than having him spend that time adding code to the game that makes the engine blow up for users who constantly complain about trivial nonsense.

This could be RH rudder pedal for B25?

I launched into GB and it was cool to see the rocket.  July 20th, 1969, I remember watching it...   ?

My mum says she was woken up for the landing as a very wee individual.

I'm glad you posted this. I hadn't launched the game today so I'm glad I got to see it. I wish it had been a Saturn V rocket but it was a cool remembrance all the same. RIP Neil and Mike. Well wishes Buzz. I remember that day. Still fills me with awe.

Yes the rocket is very beautiful.

Yes it would be good to concentrate on this so user's engines would be the little engine that could 

It fills me with appreciation. 

An tidyings of comfort and joy.

I appreciate also Neil for debunking the debunkers and forging the spirit of space travel in all our hearts. 

I pay wish to pay homage to Yuri's bravery and remember a brave little Terrior that lead the way 

As I see my celestial home one day amongst the stars.

As I shoot forth across the boundless expanse and dive down on alex120...uhm...as I shoot my own self in the foot.

Then limp home slowly as the cloud covering oil vapours deposit upon my dimming vision.

And I think... how stupid to take Alex on... why not just let him fly around busily destroying everything.

Put Brazos in it, complete with the granny and the grandson type plus a dog or two .... and shoot it at the moon?

The little rocket was there yesterday evening but is gone now. Was it related to Easter or another occasion??

I may have missed this discussion somewhere,but I am curious as to the significance of the rocket marked USA,that is in the lobby/hangar at game start. And I cant make out the yellow marking on the side...... Thanks.

This gets enabled for any significant space race anniversary. The 24th is the 55 anniversary of the Apollo 11 landing.

Thank you.

The hangar image is nice but I would love to have it say more animated. In the past we had a guy welding and you had the welding flashing and sparks flying. Then they took the effect away. Now you can still see the guy welding but no effects. I cannot understand why it was taken away. For what reason. In the game animating the environment is so limited anyway so why take away an effect that at least made the hangar more lively. 

I hope Korea will be on a different basis, with humans like pilots, soldiers etc.  this time be really part of the game and not a kind of very limited addition.

As I recall they removed the welding GFX because a lot of people complained about it.
