What is it about the engine/decoupler combination that you don't like?

What is it about the engine/decoupler combination that you don't like?

Basically the staging. if a single part could have multiple separate staging events there wouldn't be a problem but unfortunately as it is now staging well either trigger both the engine and decoupler or I set one to be activated manually and I pray one of the other mods I use doesn't screw that up. It's a lot of trouble for a part of such limited utility I haven't come up with any use for it besides bringing down ones orbit for reentry and that can be achieved with decoupler force alone so why not?

Sure, makes sense.Otherwise you'd need two parts I guess, one retropack and a small decoupler for it.

I stage the retro-pack, it does decouple but it deorbits your craft.

Wow! Looks way better.

Are you gonna add the mission flag?

Looking quite a bit more Mercury-like, nice!

[SuccinctLemon]

Very nice. Are you planning to do another Tantares pack?

Something like Agena, that would be nice.

@passinglurker what's the status on this? I want to use it for my new career, but neither the new Tantares or Old Tantares has the Mercury/Gemini textures or pods. But there is a mod, TRAILS Plus, which uses @Beale's old Gemini/Mercury assets, and is 1.2.2 compatible.

Oh this is oooooold I gave all the model's to @CobaltWolf ages ago for BDB and he has since made better textures for the same mesh. He's got gemini stuff too

I think a Tantares-alike Agena or Titan would be dope since OMSK is pretty dead.

Well, I'm fairly sure that Old Tantares had something called FOBOS which I'm pretty sure is a Tantares-themed Agena.

Tantares has never had an Agena themed part set.

[NISSKEPCSIM]

Hmm... really? I wonder what FOBOS is...

But it just so happens that I am working an a new project... a Tantares expansion pack, not unlike this one.
