  1. This is great!! Thank you so much for taking the time to put this together!!
  2. Thank you so much! Changing the base values with a MM cfg got me there. Wouldn't have figured it out without your information.
  3. This is one of my favorite mods -- really love all the work you all are putting into it!! Just a quick question... I jumped straight from the v 0.11.exp release to V 0.12.2 and I noticed that in between there was some re-balancing of the reactors. I have been able to mod the part config to get the antimatter reactors back to older values, but when paired with a thermal rocket I am not seeing the same ISP as the older version. I have not made any changes to the ThermalRocketNozzle.cfg since it's current atmosphereCurve is consistent with the older Interstellar values, but I have made the following changes to the new tweakable AntimatterReactor.cfg MODULE{ name = FNAntimatterReactor ReactorTemp = 15012 ThermalPower = 40000 resourceRate = 1.108 originalName = Gas Core upgradedName = Plasma Core upgradedReactorTemp = 409977 upgradedThermalPower = 120000 upgradeCost = 150 upgradedResourceRate = 3.324 upgradeTechReq = interstellarTechUHEPhysics animName = e5 radius = 2.5 } RESOURCE { name = ThermalPower amount = 0 maxAmount = 400000 } RESOURCE { name = WasteHeat amount = 0 maxAmount = 4000000 } With these values, I see the previous level of thrust when paired with a thermal rocket nozzle, but my ISP is still much lower than before and the fuel flow is still much higher. I have checked the source in FNNozzleController.cs and the implementation of updateIspEngineParams(..) seems unchanged from before. I am at a complete loss at this point as to how to get the thermal rocket/antimatter reactor ISP back to previous levels. I thought the calculation was solely based on reactor temp and thermal power, but I have missed something. Any ideas about what I might still need to change?
