  2. Could someone please make a SLC-40 Crew Tower mod? Would also be nice if it was built in 5 dif parts (1 of them being the crew arm lol) Renders by TheSpaceEngineer

  4. Decided to make a couple of ssrt LKO reusable booster designs as they can look pretty sleek with the new cargobays. This is one of my intermediate designs, able to lift about ~25t's in to LKO with an efficient orbit burn along with a well executed suicide burn. Tho once the cargobay bugs are fixed, i imagine it should be capable of lifting more. Ive also considered adding dedicated vacuum engines, but i felt like it kinda ruined the ''sleek'' design. Specs: Mass: 246 / 48t Parts: 33 Engines: 4 vectors LKO Lift capacity: 25t Craft file: https://www.mediafire.com/file/sl5gwxuexidzoj5/ssrt_v3_various_takeoff.json/file
  5. I have done a lot of trial and error to make this rocket work, but now I have finally created the second stage for the full starship rocket. I have tested this in an orbital flight, and it works flawlessly, it is very light on the computer (what I mean is that it gives the normal KSP2 FPS) and it can also land perfectly! (Have only tried a water landing). This has enough Dv to get all the way to Duna! This rocket was referenced from Starship SN10. THIS WAS TESTED WITH JOINT_RIGIDITY: 1500000.0 Craft files: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/19pS-SCzZqfchSv5mXkuQy2EhPk4Wxjap?usp=share_link Front View: Bottom View: Gallery Link: https://imgur.com/gallery/4ZcbU3W Update 1: Added RCS Thrusters for easier mobility. Update 2: Added the Super Heavy boosters making this a full starship. (16 boosters because 33 broke the game's physics) Update 3: Added grid fins.
  6. KSP is a space exploration game that allows players to relive their childhood dreams of flying through the stars. It's a sandbox game in which players create and manage spacecrafts from scratch. You can also download add-on packs that let you explore other parts of the solar system and even nearby star systems. Realism mods allow you to experience spaceflight in a way that's much more true to reality than computer games have been in the past. Realism mods add attributes to KSP that make it more like real space missions. Some common mods include real fuel and crew limits, accurate values for spacecrafts' mass, weight, and thrust; realistic orbital periods; realistic rendezvous and landing procedures; realistic weather variations; realistic interstellar travel capabilities; and realistic galactic map rendering. Implementing these mods makes your space missions much more authentic and challenging. Space exploration is an ongoing process that pushes humans closer to reaching the limit of our knowledge. For example, getting a human on the moon was a huge accomplishment, but now we're trying to get humans off of Earth. To do this, we need to develop spacecrafts that can withstand extreme conditions in outer space - including zero gravity, high temperatures and low air pressure. These spacecrafts need to travel great distances and return with samples from other planets. The crews who do these great deeds are very dedicated and often willing to risk their lives to achieve their goals. To experience this type of intense gameplay, you'll need several realism mods installed. Some players use KSP as a tool for exploring other career paths in engineering. For example, one user developed a modded mission where players controlled a rover instead of a spacecraft. This let players experience land-based exploration without any risk of injury or death. Other popular mods let players control ocean vessels like ships or submarines. You can also control aircrafts through suborbital or orbital flights with modded tutorials. There are many ways to add variety to your space missions- just look around KSP for inspiration! Overall space exploration is one of mankind's biggest accomplishments thus far in our history. Games like KSP help us relive childhood dreams of flying through the stars or exploring other parts of our galaxy. Thanks to mods, now anyone can enjoy realistic experiences like these without sacrificing playtime or immersion! Can I please have links to realistic mods please. thank you. your work is deeply appreciated!!!
  7. This adds a SpaceX Droneship to land your rockets on! It includes a static for Kerbal Konstructs and a VAB part. This is a continuation of Space X Barge Lander, which only had a KK static. I added the VAB part. In the future, I hope to add more parts related to SpaceX's Fleet, such as tugs. It's not perfect yet, but I'm working on it. I want to thank @ColdJ for his continued help with this, my first part mod. Dependencies: KerbalKonstructs (if you want the static) ModuleManager Download from: SpaceDock CKAN Github License: MIT
  8. Hello all! Will make it quick: * Programmer by trade (but completely unrelated to spaceflight) * Absolutely fascinated by the tvc and flaps control of starship * But absolutely no idea how this could be achieved in code * But spaceflight noob * But ksp noob Took the last year to gradually learn how to control starship using my own plugin written in C#. The video above shows my current progress. Ascent, flop, descent, flip work roughly. Landing left. Full code can be found here: https://github.com/xgleich1/starship Would like to describe my yourney from the beginning and in detail once this post is approved and if you are interested. Could contain hints on how the real flight software potentially could look like. Example: How can you make sure that you can yaw/roll/pitch at the same time with the flaps? Finally and most importantly: Big thanks to ksp and the whole ksp community, without you I could have never done this.

  9. Not sure if anyone has asked this before, but while viewing images taken of the ISS and Tiangong Space Station via ground based telescopes, I have this interesting question. Would imaging a starship currently in orbit around earth via a ground based telescope be possible? And if so, how bright of a magnitude and how large might it possibly look in an image? I'm also asking this because it seems that the first orbital flight test will probably end up happening before the end of the year and I'm sure there would be some people out there possibly interested in imaging it from orbit during the flight if they can and it's visible. You can view the images I was talking about at the beginning of this post by clicking on the links above. Hoping someone has a good answer to my question!

  11. filip's Starbase - Boca Chica launch site This mod adds high resolution and realistic Boca Chica launch site to KSP. This is my first ever mod, please dont be harsh I made this mod for all the Starship fans, that finally want to experience having Boca Chica launch site without having to build one themselves. filips's Kerbalized Boca Chica haves custom instances, location and many more Credits Development and build - @filipWithTelescope Idea - @filipWithTelescope Modeling - @filipWithTelescope, @Joep, @Fossilized Configs - @Joep Map Decals - @filipWithTelescope, @StarshipWatcher Alpha testers - @Joep, @StarshipWatcher Beta testers - @Joep, @StarshipWatcher, @ttvim_novacon_., Soloalke, @Fossilized SLE - @SAMCG14 Download: SpaceDock How to install: (For stock Kerbin) 1. Download all dependencies, and open fKBCv3Beta file and extract the entire fKBCv3Beta file 2. Open The gamedata folder inside KSP 3. Copy contents of Gamedata folder into the ksp directory (Kerbal Space Program/Game Data/) 4. now enjoy Dependencies: Kerbal Konstructs (Compatible with KSP 1.2.3) Starship Launch Expansion - v0.4 Beta Optional but recommended mods: KSC ++ Continued Tundra Space Center Aurora Space Center OSSNTR Warnings: 1. Check if you have all dependencies, and installed correctly Preparing/Setup 1. Open your KSP. 2. Locate the boca chica. (Simply go to VAB, place random craft on Boca Chica Launchpad A [Dont forget to open it in VAB using KK menu] and then launch it. 2a. (or Buy the pad using the KK Menu and use the Making history hud) 3. You should be spawned on your boca chica site with all of its beauty. 6. You are all done. Things like hopper, SN7.2 are NOT included, if you build them, you can place them on their respective spaces. 7. Unfortunately due to KSP's restrictions, you cant have both Pad A and Pad B (2) occupied at same time. However you can place one starship on Pad A, and then launch one starship to from orbital launchpad spot. Then use gravity hack and rcs to pad 2. Any issues? Need some help?

  12. Starship Expansion Project Starship Expansion Project (SEP) is a mod being developed by me, Kari, and our amazing team. Our project aims to bring our intepretation of the Starship vehicle by SpaceX into Kerbal Space Program. While a lot of the design choices are based on the actual vehicle sitting on Boca Chica, creative freedom is used to expand our mod even further. Special thanks to @damonvv for allowing us to adapt tundra's plugin to ourselves, @SofieBrinkfor her hard work adapting the code and overall improvement of the mod, @IsaQuestfor the raptor model and textures, @Janus92 for the amazing IVA models, @EritoKaiofor indirectly helping me improve myself over the last few months, and you everyone on my discord server for their immense support to our mod, I could not have done without you Screenshots Dependencies Module Manager Waterfall (0.8.1 or higher) B9 Part Switch Extremely Important but not required mods Textures Unlimited (for shiny parts!)

Any other form of download is not official and should not be trusted FAQ 1. Where is *? R: If you have not found a feature you like, please check our roadmap to see if it's not already planned, otherwise feel free to ask nicely and we'll happily look into it 2. Why there's only 2 engine modes on the booster? R: When we where authorized to use part of Tundra's plugin, we agreed to leave the engine switch on Tundra's mod, as it was made mainly for falcon, if you want an extra mode, install Tundra and it will be on your game 3. What are those names? R: I renamed the parts to match The Expanse (my favorite show) names, if you're not familiar or want to have real names, there is an option for it on the extras folder when you download it 4. Where are the legs? NOW AVAILABLE ON V2.0.0 R: Well, to be fair leg design for Starship is tricky, so I've left without it for now, in the meanwhile you can try catching the ship or use one of the legs from KRE 5. IVA?

  13. This is a recreation of Starbase Launchsite made with Kerbal Konstructs for KSP 1.12.x . NOTE: I know the area looks empty and not as well done as I would like but it is the most I have managed to do using Kerbal Konstructs. If anyone has any advice on how to improve it I will be happy to hear it. I will try to update the zone when new updates come out in the Starship Launch Expansion mod, like the Catch Arms and the updated Launch Table.

  14. Starship 2021 Design (S20) PERMANENT UPDATE: I have decided to discontinue the mod due to burnout and the high rate of changes to the design IRL, plus I absolutely hate dealing with Unity and KSP modding in general. A lot more work than I really have the patience to deal with, so I'm returning to only doing renders and animations. HOWEVER. . . If you want a replacement, please check @Kari's Starship Expansion Project we've helped each other in the past and I highly recommend it. Down below you can see all the current features, screenshots, compatibility, dependencies and a longer description about me and mod. First of all, here's a little event I did on my KaioSpace youtube channel when I first released the mod for my Patrons to test: Screenshots: Dependencies: TundraExploration is required for the flaps to function. TexturesUnlimited is required for you to see the shiny metal. CryoTanks are required because of the LqdMethane configuration as of 1.2. (This was an accidental thing, I'll see if I can make it optional for 2.0, alternatively, you can probably delete the tank configs in the Patches folder of the mod) Recommended: CryoEngines - For more accurate Raptor replicas until I make my own. My mod includes a config for the engines and tank contents to be compatible. Waterfall - For the raptor exhaust plumes. HullCameraVDS & NeptuneCamera - For the FlapCam/WindwardCam/DownwardCam if you want to do fancy videos. StarshipLaunchExpansion - For the suborbital clamp and launch tower. Kari's Starship Expansion Project - If you need a booster that fits with my Ship until I release my own and you'll also have more Ship variants to play with. Installation: Place the KaioSpace folder in the zip file inside the KSP GameData folder. Launch the game! Yup, should be that simple. On CKAN all you have to do is select and install. I have not made a craft file for it yet, but if you're familiar with other Starship mods it should work very similarly. You get an extra option to toggle the vents with an action group on the nose and tank section. I recommend that you set the nosecone to lower fuel Flow Priority so the header tank remains full until its really needed, also balances the weight better on descent. Features usually get released to patreon first a couple days early and then I will make a public release once all testing is done. The next major update (2.0) will likely be the SuperHeavy Booster. NOTE: Starship S20 does NOT have legs so I didn't model any and likely wont until we have a new design at Starbase. If you want to use legs you can use Tundra's legs for the time being. You just need to do some weird symmetry because S20+ has a new skirt design. Download: Spacedock (& CKAN) | Dev Versions: Patreon Roadmap: Trello License: MIT About Me & Mod: I'm Erito. I'm a 3D artist who has been making renders for a while and had the pleasure of joining a group of other Spaceflight artists who have been helping me improve. Since last year I've been addicted to Starship's development and I had the idea to make this mod in January 2021 but stopped because I wasn't making progress learning (because quite honestly the documentation for modding isn't.. very friendly or updated for new devs, but that's a rant for another day). Few months later I restarted the project and here we are. I very regularly post updates on Twitter and my Discord about the mod, tho keep in mind if you join my discord I'm extremely strict with my rules, no memes, only Starship/3D modeling/Chill talk, and I'm also known for not dealing well with younger audiences. RSS/RO Configs: I'm not planing to make RSS/RO configs myself, but you're free to post your configs on this post and I'll list them here below. I will not test them myself (I'm bad at RO lol) so use at your own risk & let me know, also send me pics on twitter!!: Modder Resources for making compatible mods: Changelogs: Work In Progress:

  16. I made RO configs for Tundra Exploration's Starship. I tried to make it work with out a reaction wheel but that was pretty much impossible. It is possible to make it work without a reaction wheel but the fuel balance has to be PERFECT https://github.com/Suyash-Jevaria/KSP-RO-Starship-Configs
  17. We have oil companies who won't let that happen. And not everyone would be thrilled about potential microwave death beams floating above their heads. Solar power satellites also aren't that practical for many reasons.
  18. Hello, is there a way to play KK‘s launcher SpaceX mod with RO and RSS so that the rockets have the right configuration including size and fuel? And is it also possible to optimize Tundra‘s exploration with RSS and RO too? A instruction with the right KSP version and the settings/codes of mod would be really cool! Thanks and greetings from germany!
  19. Hi, Marcus house had made a kos code for falcon heavy which only works with ksp 1.3 and lower. So i have modified his script and made it compatible with Ksp 1.8.1 and higher . So i will now continue to to update his script . Script is finally complete ,here it is : https://github.com/daiwik-ksp/Falcon-Heavy-Dual-booster-landing- More pic on : https://imgur.com/a/0vaAUyH
  20. hey, i was wondering what mods you guys use for spacex-like parts? thanks!
  21. Hey there, I am new at asking questions so please be gentle. I am a PS4 KSPEE player and I am trying to perfect my landing on the launch pad, now with that being said it is going to require allot of math and I just don't know the formula, I was thinking about how it should include the TWR, the weight of the object being landed, how quick the fuel is being drained, it is kind of like the rocket equation but with added steps and it will lead to a different outcome, if there is someone who could make a calculator I know that not only I will appreciate it but so will the KSPEE players and the stock KSP players alike. Thanks everyone!
  22. I want to make an elevator on a vertically landed spaceship that can lower my kerbonauts and vehicles down to the surface safely, like the artist rendering below of future SpaceX Starship missions. Any ideas on how I can do this? From the mods I've searched, nothing comes close to building something that looks like this, and I'm not much of a modder myself :( Any ideas welcome!
