    Hey, The White Guardian said you have a spreadsheet for atmospheric curves?

    (I'm making a mod that replaces the Kerbol system, so I REALLY need to make pressure curves for the atmospheres of planets and moons.)

  2. electricpants

    Hey @The White Guardian, do you know how to generate atmospheric curves?

      Oh, and can you figure out the latitude/longitude of the middle of that island?

      Nope, sorry. Best option would be to load it in-game with Hyperedit installed, fly there, and go to the 'ship lander', where you can then obtain the coordinates of the craft and thus the land directly underneath the craft.

    I've FINALLY gotten to 200 rep!

    Thanks to @daniel l. for this achievement!

    So I'm thinking of writing another story on Wattpad called "COLONIZE", which is inspired by TheRagingSandwich's "Outpost".

    It takes place in the year 2241 on the other side of the Milky Way from the Sun's point of view.

    Does anybody have any ideas for the storyline?

    (Also, no need to make solar systems for me, I've already got that covered, as mentioned earlier.)

    I have an almost equal rep/content count!

    Hey ProtoJeb, I'm making a star with an extremely low mass (0.08 times the mass of the Sun), I calculated all the major things including the habitable zone based on this video's math (Correctly): 

     

    And then I calculated the Frost limit with this video (Correctly): 

    But the Frost Limit appears to occur before the Habitable Zone (FL at ~0.01 AU and HZ ranging from ~0.021 AU to ~0.03 AU)

    Did I do anything wrong, or is this system just uninhabitable?

    1. ProtoJeb21

      ProtoJeb21

      Hmmm...I'll try to redo those calculations and see what's the problem. Also, I think you should check out Artifexian's video about building 1,000 stars. It has the equations I've been using for my stars, both real and hypothetical.

  8. electricpants

    Sorry about not telling you earlier, I was working on Chapter two of Rogue, but the 1.2 version is working great! :D

  9. electricpants

    Hey Spaceception, I'm writing a story (Not a book I'm not that professional) about Kerbin becoming a rogue planet. Do you have any ideas I could use for my story?

    1. Spaceception

      Spaceception

      Maybe you could put aliens in it who destabilize Jool, and slingshot Kerbin out of the Kerbol system, and the Kerbals have to make a generation ship to go to another solar system.

      Or maybe their space exploration tech isn't good enough and you could write the psychological stress of dying, from like the POV from Val, Jeb, Bill, and Bob. (Although that would be pretty dark)

      Or you could write about how they try to build a ship that could create a colony on one of the planets around Kerbol (No aliens, no unstable Jool's, just Kerbin suddenly becoming rogue).

      It's your story in the end, so you could take some points from these, and turn it into your own, when you do, run with it :)

    2. electricpants

      electricpants

      Here's the story (Only Prologue and Chapter 1 for now): 

      Do you like it?

  10. electricpants

    You need to update the mod for 1.2, it doesn't appear to be working as much as I suspected.

    1. StarCrusher96

      StarCrusher96

      Is Kopernicus already out for 1.2? 

    2. electricpants

      electricpants

      Haven't checked yet.

  11. electricpants

    Is your profile pic a pic of Jupiter you took or someone else?

    1. ProtoJeb21

      ProtoJeb21

      It was a non-zoomed in image of Jupiter I took back in May. I cropped out everything except Jupiter to use for my avatar. I would've liked to put in one of my Mars images, but the forum won't allow avatars greater than 195 KB. A lot of my astronomy images are over 1 MB!

      Also, is KDS dead? Nothing's been posted since August 19th except for me asking this same question.

    3. ProtoJeb21

      ProtoJeb21

      I just responded :P

    4. electricpants

      electricpants

      Yeah, I just saw it! :D

  14. electricpants

    Do you know how to move around planets, or do I need to ask GregroxMun?

    Basically I want to move the planets around, actually have a story for why they are in different orbits, and change the planets themselves.

  15. electricpants

    What happened to my followers?

    (I know you didn't do anything, but I was just wondering. :P)

      Well, the one of the sigmabinary barycenters don't work, but I think that one's just a programming issue.

    3. ProtoJeb21

      ProtoJeb21

      I think we should take this to the KDS thread...

    Hiatus?

     

     

     

    Want to know why you haven't been active for a while. :wink:

      Moving.

      If I'm gone for 2 days or more, I'm either camping, moving, grounded, or just can't go on the computer.

    2. electricpants

      electricpants

      Oh.

       

       

       

      It turns out that Galacticvoyager is moving too.

      SO MANY PEEPLE R MOOVING!

  17. electricpants

    Hey ProtoJeb, what happened to @Galacticvoyager?

    1. ProtoJeb21

      ProtoJeb21

      *shrugs* I don't know, maybe just a hiatus.

    2. electricpants

      electricpants

      Ok, well apparently the reason is that he is in the process of moving. :/

  18. electricpants

    Hey ProtoJeb, how do I add rings to my star?

    (I'm asking you because you're the only one (as far as I know) who has put rings around a star, which was in your mod IA Revived.)

    1. ProtoJeb21

      ProtoJeb21

      The same way you put rings on planets. Copy and paste ths ring data from Cervantes into your star's config if needed, but you will have to change information.

  19. electricpants

    I want to make another mod, but I don't have any ideas. Sort of like this:

    (REFERR TO 0:54 TO 1:03 (Or just watch all of it, because it's JonTron.).)

    So basically what I'm trying to say is that I would appreciate some ideas. :P

  20. electricpants

    How do I make a signature? I just wrote the prologue and first chapter to my KSP story, and I want a signature so people actually know it exists.

    1. ProtoJeb21

      ProtoJeb21

      Click on the arrow next to your username at the top of the screen. A bunch of options should show up, including "Account Settings." Go to that. You will see four "tabs" on the left side of account settings, and one of them is for signatures. Click on it, and make your signature.

    2. electricpants

      electricpants

      Thanks! :D

  21. electricpants

    Ok, so I have this idea that stuck me a few days ago, and I think it's really cool.

    So the idea is a full galaxy with 300 stars and 900 planets total (That means each star system could have 3 planets, but it's not gonna be that uniform). And I also want to make a Gargantua (from "Interstellar") analogue, so the center will have 3 planets, a neutron star, and S2 and S0-102 analogues. I will make the "escape" velocity unnaturally low (for a black hole), so you can "escape" the galaxy (I'm using quotation marks because I'm changing the Sun into the center, so it's SOI will be infinity, like it is in the stock game). If this is even possible in the first place, I'll need to go back to my corner and think of a name for this mod.

    Again, I'm not sure this is even possible without the game crashing upon starting it.

    1. ProtoJeb21

      ProtoJeb21

      Whoa, whoa, whoa, slow down! You already have the Antares and 2KAS-J0523 systems, and now you want to make a fleeping GALAXY?!

      I like the idea, and I wouldn't mind helping you out with the project, but both of us already have mods we're currently working on. Just saying.

    2. electricpants

      electricpants

      Yeah, it's just an idea as of now. But I do intend to eventually make this into a real life mod.

  22. electricpants

    Ok, so I tried to use Kittopia, but, JUST MY LUCK, it's WAY too complicated and I can't understand any of what it means. T-T

    This is probably just because this is  my first time ever using Kittopia, and ASS is my first mod ever.

      Ur smarrt arnt u?

    3. ProtoJeb21

      ProtoJeb21

      Anyways, since I have several weeks with nothing to do, I think I should make a YouTube channel with the first video being a Kittopia Tech tutorial. It really sucks that nobody has bothered to do a planet-making tutorial since Planet Factory. I mean, c'mon guys! PF:CE is two years outdated and not NEARLY as good as Kopernicus and Kittopia!

    4. electricpants

      electricpants

      ikr

      Seriously though, that's a very good idea. I've seen only a few tutorials for PF:CE, and that's it. No Kopernicus, no Kittopia (Obviously since this version of it is a revival. I know because I found the original, and it said it was dead).

  23. electricpants

    @ProtoJeb21 How do I use Kittopia?

    1. ProtoJeb21

      ProtoJeb21

      When you download Kittopia, start the game, and enter the tracking station, open it with (Ctrl+P). Then, select the body you want to edit with the list you get from the button at the top of the Kittopia window. To export textures, go to Scaled Space Editor, scroll down, and click "Update Textures." Edit your PQS Mods inside the PQS Mod editor. Select your mod, change values, and save your changes with "Rebuild PQSMod." 

      Those are the essentials. PM me if you need extra help:wink:

      Also, are you a fan of exoplanets like GJ 1214b? (just wondering because of your background picture)

    2. electricpants

      electricpants

      Yes, I love the idea of water planets. That's where I got the idea of Coaster from the Antares mod. (Though GJ 1214b isn't my favorite exoplanet, J1407b is.)

      It's weird how my first ever mod is so popular.

      I just thought "Hmm... Since there are no Red Giant mods, I'll make one!".

      And then it started to explode.

  24. electricpants

    Guys, I DID IT!!! I technically made a horseshoe orbit with 2 asteroids! :D

      Nice :0.0: Maybe I'll do one moon with oceans like Titan and thick atm, and another with lots of ice, and a thin atm. :)

      Also, i ran out of likes :P
