@MSCSpaceworks
I will do SpaceX for sure. I can do your logo in simple colors but the ‘blended’ colors are very difficult for me with my current method.
@HSH
Definitely. That one will be relatively easy. I’ll add it to the list. Right now it takes me a little while to do each one but I’m working on making the process more efficient.
@GoldenShadowGS
Great explanation. I’d love to take a look at your control algorithms when you’re ready to post them. I’m really interested in this stuff. I had a very unsuccessful drone ship lander that attempted to do something like this.
Fantastic. This is a really helpful description of your process. Is there no need to account for drag? If not, then why not? I would have thought drag would be a significant variable to deal with. It seems like you don’t have any control points prior to the final engine fire.
I appreciate the sentiment behind this post a lot, but I also don’t think you have anything to apologize for - at all. We’ve all been there where we have a great idea, start on it, maybe even get super close to finishing it, then just can’t cross the finish line. Sometimes you run into an unforeseen challenge, sometimes you just lose motivation because the idea doesn’t work out as well as you hoped, or honestly, sometimes starting projects is WAY more fun than finishing them. What you’re apologizing for is human nature. We all support and appreciate you, and don’t think you’re a quitter.
PS - your Christmas challenge “He Sees You When You’re Sleeping...” has a brief cameo in my upcoming video this Friday about save points. I’ve been looking for an excuse to use it for a while. Keep up the great work!!!
Little buddy looks a bit uncomfortable there, sitting in that — wait, he’s not sitting in anything!
Anywho, I noticed that if you play this video backward while listening to Tom Sawyer by Rush, you’ll see a special message spelled out by the tire tracks. Try it and see.
I’m just spitballing here, but I my guess is that these teasers not only show the content that will be in the next release, but also hint at the release date. The first post mentioned 7 flights of stairs, and the solution to the second post was 3 socks. 7 + 3 = 10 = October. The objective of the first problem was to complete the task in ONE trip, and the objective of the second problem was to obtain ONE complete pair of socks. In addition all of the blog posts have been done on days ending in ONE (8/21, 8/31, 9/11), and the only valid day ending in ONE that hasn’t had a post was 01, even thought there was an opportunity on Sep 1st. Thus, I believe the update will either release to BETA or go to full release on October 1st, or 10/01, or 01/10 (depending on your region). Now, hopefully this means Oct 1st 2020 and not Oct 1st 2021, but I’ll take it either way.
Ok, enough speculating. If anyone thinks this theory has any validity, or if you think I’m a complete idiot, let me know!
Ok, this thing has been eating at me. I think I finally have it. The only problem left is the 7 flights of stairs. Nathan is going to have to run. Fast.
Here’s the deal.
Nathan, you need to flip switch #1 and leave it on for a very long time, until you’re totally certain that the bulb is burning hot. Remember, the bulb is incandescent, and will get to a pretty hot temperature. None of that LED energy-saving BS. Also, you gotta make sure there aren’t any fixtures covering those bulbs. You’re gonna want them totally open and exposed. Ok, once you’ve counted to at least 100, mississippilly (sorry, Friends joke for those over 30), you need to turn off switch #1, then quickly turn on switch #2. At this point, Nathan, you’re going to have to high tail it up those stairs, taking at least 2 or 3 at a time. Grab that railing, Nathan, and use it to pull yourself up. It would help if you’d eaten your Wheaties (again, over 30 joke).
Alright, have you made it to the top yet? Yes? Alright, now one bulb will be on, and that goes to switch #2. But we don’t care about that one, that’s the easy one. What you wanna do it grab those other two bulbs with your bare hands. One of them will be hot - or at least warm depending on how speedy you were - and the other should be stone cold. The hot one goes to switch #1 and the cold one is switch #3.
Now, Nathan, you can label those bulbs and switches so that you don’t run into this problem again. After that, you are free to sit back and enjoy the beverage of your choice, basking in the bliss of knowing that you used your brain to solve a simple problem.
UPDATE: could have read some of the early comments, but instead I preferred to write my own monologue.
We may finally answer the age-old riddle: how many Jundroo devs does it take to screw in a light bulb?
Answer: 0, because they don’t have time because the users are constantly berating them to make updates while we have a global pandemic ravaging the world.
Keep up the great work, team, and hang in there. Love the sneak peek.
@AshtvinayakAerospace

Add Indian flag to list
3.5 years ago@SporeExplorationSystems
+2 3.5 years agoHaha I’d say that one is pretty easy!
@NebulaSpaceAgency
+1 3.5 years agoAbsolutely, both of those should be pretty quick. I’ll try to have them done later this week.
@CASXA
+1 3.5 years agoOk definitely!
@NebulaSpaceAgency
+1 3.5 years agoYeah for sure. If you post a link to the image I can make it.
@CSPACE
3.5 years agoYours is very easy. And I will definitely do the Canadian flag.
@MansBestFriend

@HSH
ENJOY!!!

@zzazza

@RDasher
