    Basically, it can be anywhere in GameData you like.  As long as it's either in that folder or in some sub-folder thereof, and is named with the .cfg file extension, then it ought to work.

    If you'd like to see a working example of how this sort of tweaking comes together, you might like to check out the Snarkiverse mod, specifically the config files that come with it.  That mod just re-jiggers the solar system in various ways, adjusting the orbits of stock bodies, so it's pretty much the same type of thing you're trying to do.  You may like to look at the file Mun.cfg in particular-- it adjusts the Mun's orbital size, eccentricity, and inclination, so it may be a good model to work from.

    I did just that with the principia mod installed but it didn't work cuz it didn't want to overwrite the default principia orbit configurations what should i do?

    There is a configuration file for that.  There was also a discussion earlier on this thread.

    I can't seem to find it anywhere in the folder, does it i have to write the config manually? If so, should i write something after the colon in "principia_gravity_model:"? Where do I need to place it, what should I name it, do i have to fill in other things such as gravity parameter and mean radius which is irrelevant for things i want to edit? That page doesn't answer any of those questions at all.

    Certainty! If you want to change a body's orbit, you need to make a .cfg file in gamedata somewhere. Here is an example config in case you don't know how to make one.

    @Kopernicus:AFTER[Koperniucs]

    {

         @Body[Put the name of the body you want to edit here]

         {

                      @Orbit

                       {

                              eccentricity = (value here)

               inclination = (value here)

                       }

         }
    }

    "somewhere" where specifically should I place the config and what shold i name it if it's for several objects?

    Are you sure your FAR and B9 proc wing versions are the last ones ? I had the same problem when I updated to 1.7 but it was rapidly corrected in new mod versions. The problem has already been discussed in the previous page. To be sure, you can press F12 and look if you have blue lift arrows coming from your wings in flight. If you don't, well, check you are using the last versions.

    I'm using 1.6.1, which versions of FAR or B9 procedural wings should i use then? I've installed both of those mods clearly stating that the version is compatible with 1.6.1, so i don't see the problem

  5. I don't exactly know why, but no matter what shape i tweak the wings, they seem to only generate minimal thrust, rendering the plane not maneuverable at all, it can for example have an angle of attack of 50 degrees or more at over 200 m/s, but the navball prograde marker only turns at like 2 deg/s. I try to make the exact same plane with the same wing shape, except this time, the wing is made of stock parts, and it works perfectly fine. Anyone who can explain why?

    I also have FAR btw

  6. I've scrolled through the whole KSP forum and haven't found a single topic mentioning how we can improve the planets without surface.

    My idea is: assuming a spaceship can tolerate everything including infinite temperature, pressure, g-forces etc.

    Jool, for example, can look like some sort of an ocean planet, which gas giants actually are in real life (except that the ocean is made of hydrogen); smooth looking from space, maybe a bit hydrogen color ish (whatever the color of hydrogen is). Then the clouds can be added by for example a VE mod of some sort to make it look like a typical good'ol gas giant. If landing a ship on it, the temperature of the "ocean" surface may be 100 - 200 degrees due to hydrogen greenhouse effect, the ship quickly sinks till the density of the ocean is so great the ship stops sinking.

    In the case of The Sun, same, the photosphere can be an intensely white glowing "ocean" of much lower density, the ship may sink tens to hundreds of thousands of kilometers before stopping (unless you have some real good floating mechanism). Sunspots can be where the ocean is still intensely white glowing, except that it's glowing thousands of times less than the surroundings. An intensely red atmosphere (the chromosphere) can be placed right above the photosphere.

    Oh nevermind the things above is just as impossible as it could be LOL. (But that's only an idea)
