My kerbals have embarked on a journey to the most festive place in the system, Eeloo. Hopefully they get there by the time of a future Christmas.

I've been messing around with this mod a bit since I saw it on CKAN earlier today and it's been really fun. Since this is an early version I've encountered a few bugs you might want to hear about though. For some reason none of the parts like one of my planes and the prop will go black once spun up. I've tested it with different craft to see if I could figure out what's causing it but sadly couldn't replicate it with other craft. I also feel like the drag on the 1.25m props is too high and the trumpet struggles to get a 5 ton plane past 90 m/s while with the same plane the vuvuzela can only get up to 180m/s. Anyway, it's really cool to see a lightweight prop mod that's very good at being stockalike.

I'm looking forward to some quality of life improvements like the faster load times and part coloring.

So just to be clear this mod is simply cosmetic and all fuel tanks and engines still have the same weights, thrust, and efficiency but with a revamped look, right? So everything preforms the same except for some minor drag cube stuff.

After launching a new probe all the way to Dres I was able to find somebody's sweet ride with the IP-15 being diverted from Kerbin return to refuel here. The IP-15 then returned to Kerbin and was given a new cockpit with scanning equipment and rechristened the IP-16 and sent off to Eeloo for a frozen sundae treat. Meanwhile Jeb was driving around in his new rover when he found something interesting in the dessert.

This fills the Donalddahlen shaped hole in my heart.

Screenshots not the right size.

It is not that I don't like the stripes it is just that they don't fit in with anything anymore. This means they look rather out of place.

I REEAAALLYY want the reaction wheels remodeled especially the 1.25m one with those ugly stripes.

I also have this one. To get the submarine probe below the limit on Jool I used Hyperedit to give Jool an ocean and it probably would have sunk all the way to the core of the planet. Look at the altimeter.

I decided to strap some engines on a land rover and well... It actually flew.

This happened somehow and I'm not sure why or how.

I would really like a half length version of the flight deck with sides.

Careful Hydrus is also known as dihydrogen monoxide and it is the main cause of rusting pipes and the government is putting it in our homes. http://dhmo.org/truth/Dihydrogen-Monoxide.html

Thank you so much for introducing me to this. It makes more sense then the brown triangle because of its ability to abort at all times and its modular construction.

Oh boy an update, can't wait to play around with these parts!

Oh wow, I had no idea the base parts were going to be deployable. That will be fun! This is an article I found on the Orbiting Lunar Station it has pictures and some dimensions. https://falsesteps.wordpress.com/2016/08/13/ols-the-orbiting-lunar-station/

Thanks for the reply! I assume that part is the lunar surface base? Anyways I hope the next update comes soon. (No pressure)

Loving the new parts, but I'm just wondering if there are any plans for a dedicated engine. Right now I am using a heavily modified "Tiny Tim" engine from Cormorant Aeronology Block 2. (It has the stats of an RL-10) I just would enjoy a dedicated engine with the same art style.

Oh cool. Good luck with that.

Looks nice I assume this uses Roverdudes amazing Alcubierre drive mod for the FTL capability.

I trust all flavors have been approved by SPICE (Space Professionals Institute of Culinary Excellence) and this mod looks like a great addition to my game.

looks awsome!

I am having a problem with the lander bodies, they are black instead of grey. When I open the game textures unlimited says that some textures might be unavailable. So I did what it said and put the command in steam but this did not fix it. Anyone know what is happening? Pics https://imgur.com/a/sp0JFjl

I downloaded the update and nothing seems to have changed. No new parts. the double outer section is still there. No this is an installation problem, the folder the update came in has no changes. Anyone else having this problem?
