It gives me great pride to announce that Space has been conquered. The Alizée Fan 75 space station is now in orbit around the humble "overworld" of The Ville's Tekkit server. Screenshots follow.
In the meantime, I also wanted to give a heads-up to my fellow space-racers that there seems to be an error with space. Upon breaking the 1200m altitude mark (the point at which one exits the atmosphere), it gave me the space menu as it was supposed to, and I was able to build my space station. From there however it almost immediately kicked me from the game with the standard "flying not enabled" message. Attempting to reconnect results in reaching the space menu, then being kicked for end of stream about 2 seconds later. This reoccurs infinitely. Exiting the game and re-entering will kick once for flying not enabled, then repeat the end of stream problem. Basically, I'm locked out of the game due to this error. It's late, so I'll see if I can figure out anything tomorrow, but be wary if you are also headed in to space!
That out of the way, behold screenshots of the space shot!
