I wanted to enter, but the distance is waay to small.

[Dare]

Too smaller distance, not enough rules.

Also, put a timer so you can actually see who wins.

Yes, please either make more rules, or elaborate on current ones. Also, anyone who uses compressed circles or negative airfriction is stealing my idea 'cause I just built an entry using it.

[Dare]

Pshhh, we all know that I always win

Uhm .. what? If that's a joke, sorry I don't get it.

[TC42]

Yes, it was a lame attempt at a joke.

[Dare]

Oh alright. But back to the contest.

Looks like this one was made by another thyme-hater:

Thyme/scripting 0/3 the more scripting you have the more points you loose

I hate it when people do that.

[TC42]

Yeah, I do as well... Using thyme doesn't make rockets easier to build. I built my entry in 55 seconds without any thyme, and it worked great. If I had used thyme, I would have had to build a whole new density engine.

[bozbez]

My entry just uses a ridiculous amount of thyme
And it only works at 30000Hz in super slow mo
It gets to the top killer plane in 0.14s at a speed of 56000m/s though.

[Sparky]

ok i will remove thyme rule

[Sparky]

Update:i have added a timer and the distance is longer

S'what happens when you spawn 127 infinite density circles

you go really fast

[bozbez]

Aha! It now works on 100hz with less acceleration but more speed. Cruise at full power is 106000m/s, but is only at 20000m/s when it reaches space on the new scene :/

[Sparky]

looking fallward to your scene,bozbez

[Sparky]

I wanted to enter, but the distance is waay to small.

i have added a timer and the distance is longer.

[bozbez]

This is the closest i can get it to the edge of space, and at 0.16s
