KSP Campaign Speedrun, Part 3: Interplanetary on the second launch Bradley Whistance 2019-09-29 | NOTE:At 1:42 in this video, a clip is shown where it appears that infinite fuel is enabled. I was using a few shots of the previous parts of the mission to set context. I believe that I either edited in a clip from testing or from later recreation. However, given the time since this video, it is possible that I accidentally left infinite fuel on during the mission itself and didn't notice the error. The overall mission and delta-V margins remain sound. Regardless, I sincerely apologize for the error.Thank you to /u/zhangyuxiao12345678 on reddit for finding this.Please watch the first two parts if you have not already!Part 1: youtu.be/qT5AMbRh6JcPart 2: youtu.be/b7AIN6_OXTgBrad's Discord Channel: discord.gg/xkKKxB6
