[Your favorite mod list?]

HAHA I can't use any (visual enhancement mods) as a i play ksp on a potato several years too old to be considered as a gaming computer even 10 years ago

 

A part from this and some adjustments i had to do in order to E.T.T. to register every mods, they all work well together.

I have to say i'm pretty enthusiast about new or improved gameplay things as i can't add much more part if i want my game to start in less than 20min. If yours is OK consider adding some more parts mod.

Basically the ones i'd choose : all from @NecroBones (MRS, SpaceY Extended and all), maybe B9 part and some space station parts too

[[1.2] DarkSideTechnology (Beta)]

Just passing to say nice mod, @Badsector !

 

Thx a lot for your piece of work, i found it them absolutely gorgeous.

 

Edit after download : I was speaking about the centrifugate habitation module. I wasn't aware about the other pieces and they're great too

[Any mod to calculate DV?]

Just click on the "VESL" tab in the KER windows to see your dV man

[Procedural parts limited in career?]

Iirc the more you progress in the tech three in term of size of fuel tank, batteries, decouplers, etc the more choice you got when changing size and shape of procedural parts

[What do you like to know most about vessels in KSP when looking at other people's stuff?]

Maybe also resources and KIS/KAS storing capacities? (If relevant)

[How's my gravity turn? What's the best?]

One thing you can try is to install the Gravity Turn mod, in order to watch how it's done on your KSP, with ships you have build, etc...

It helped me more than video or tutorial for learning the trick... And now i can do it by myself

 

______

Keep in mind that it'll show the most efficient launch, and not the quickest or the most enjoyable one. I mean the mod is helpful in order to visualize the best theoretical launch, in practise i tend to do my launch in more steeper ascent profile to gain some time

Alternately you can also install Malah's StockScanSat plugin.

That's not the worst of it. Ever tried using the menu when a part is spinning? It is almost impossible. 

SQUAD are going over the UI for 1.1 so i think it may get fixed then.

Try Menu Stabilizer : This plug-in will make any part right-click menu freeze its position on the screen in flight when the mouse is above it.

Just a lifesaver :-)

[Removing Parts from Mods?]

In addition, in order to decrease even more your parts count you can try those mods by Malah (StockSCANsat, StockRT and Stockplugins). They let you use mods without the included parts (by adding mod ability to stock parts). It also include instruction for pruning mods parts.

But it seems like maybe what was desired is something that removes the *time* it takes in front of the game to do it.  Even if you script it, you still have to wait for the launch process to finish.

USI Kolonization Systems (MKS/OKS) does exactly that, i mean the Logistic "part" of the mod.

 

Here's a chart by Roverdude (who's making this mod) : (Found there - on Reddit)

First install version 1.8.9 of https://kerbalstuff.com/mod/424/ScienceAlert

Then replace the ScienceAlert.dll in your "Kerbal Space Program\GameData\ScienceAlert" folder, overwriting the existing file with the file from http://gamefaction.no/ScienceAlert-1.8.9-patch1.zip

The patch fixes the broken transitter bug. See the included source patch for details.

don't forget to put the .cs file in the ScienceAlert folder too
