I saw Matt Lowne use chat GPT to create a KSP mission and I thought it was a good idea. So I tried it myself!
I also wanted a custom flag, but I'm more engineer than artist, so I had AI create that for me too!
I asked for a multi part mission, that used multiple craft and multiple launches and was medium to hard in complexity.
-
Launch a mission to the Mun.
-
Scan for resources from orbit.
-
Land a scanning rover to determine a good site for a mining operation.
-
Put down crew for the new mining operation.
-
Mine ore and convert to fuel.
Here's the main launch with the scanning probe, rover, lander and ISRU craft.
Deploying the M700 probe with enough Δv to reach a polar orbit.
The scanning and science rover posing with it's sky crane.
The mining module in operation
Sending up the crew to rendezvous with the landing craft.
The landing crew with their custom flag planted! (shame they didn't land closer to the colony, but the rover can taxi them over!)
I've noticed them in my garden too, over the last couple of weeks!
