  1. Regarding the....:

     

    Pressurized Mating Adapter (PMA)

    Part...

     

    No matter what docking adapter I place on it (even the stock Clamp-o-trons) none of the docking ports work at all.

     

    It's really strange cause I can place any docking port on any other station part and they work fine including the docking ports that attach the Soyaz capsules to the station.

     

    As soon as I take the non functioning docking ports off the PMA and place them on something else they continue to decouple and couple as they should...

     

    Does anyone know what the issue could be?

     

    Is it something specific in the file of the PMA itself?

     

    Thanks!

    The Dragon V1 trunk in the mod has a solid fuel booster which i guess is for de-orbiting, however i don't think this is in the real life version. And the open hatch is used by the Canadarm 2 on the ISS for docking, however there is no stock equivalent for it in-game and the only way to get the arm is by downloading a mod that uses Infernal Robotics

    Hmmmmm......I wonder how it is done IRL then...

  3. Question...

    How the heck do you rendezvous with the ISS and deorbit with the Dragon Cargo without engines?

    Is it all done mearley on RCS?

    At least the Dragon Crew Capsule has engine thrusters on the capsule itself.

    How is it done in RL after the cargo capsule decouples from the final orbital transfer booster stage?

    ...................................................

    Also, isn't the open hatch on the cargo capsule a docking port for the Canadarm and not for science equipment?

  4. Simply Amazing Mod!

     

    Best functioning Orion Capsule I've yet to DL!

    Station Parts and Duna Direct Mission looking Hab is awesome!

     

    What is the purpose of the Duna Resource/ Supply Landers?

     

    It has no way to dock with anything else, the internal pad's hatches (resource Lander) are all blocked preventing EVA and I don't see it containing any resources'/supplies for  Duna Base camp or way to mine for resources (resource lander)...

    How are you using these two modules on Duna for resource and resupply?

     

    Thanks!

  5. Need Help...

     

    Just installed this mod and the IR Icon shows up in the menu tab in VAB but clicking it just brings up an empty "Servo" window that is empty...

     

    TI don't see the little additional menu that's supposed to pop up for commands control and I have all dependant mods installed and updated on version 1.3

     

    Thanks!

    what is the trick to get the toolbar to show up

     

    EDIT: Never mind, after an hour and half of searching i found it.

    Having same issue... in v1.3   :-(

    WHAT was your fix?

  6. Awesome Mod!

     

    Love the scale and stockalike look of this this mod as the Kerbalized Space X is Mod is way to big to fit with my ISS as the capsules even dwarf my Space Shuttles.

     

    Is there any way that we can switch the part/craft textures to white?

     

    Thanks!

    How the heck are you guys simultaneously landing both boosters?

     

    How are you all controlling both at the same time?

     

    Thanks!

    @Kilo60 The Viper is not an Orbital craft, it is designed as High-Altitude Atmospheric Scout, no Docking capability, the RCS Thrusters are only there for Attitude Control

    @Helltrooper509 propably but a loooong time ago, most special mods seem not to be on CKAN as it is an additional upkeep for the author

    @JPLRepo i noticed, in the latest Spacedock downloads there arent any craft files included anymore, there is a zip file in the main package but it contains Assets, Parts and Plugins folder

     

    Got it!

     

    However...

     

    It's impossible to use the Viper as a H-AAS due to no VTOL engines or landing skids...!

     

    The craft slides on the ground and explodes before it can get airborne....

     

    That's why I expected it to be a non-atmospheric orbit only craft, hence docking RCS capability...

     

    Can landing skids at least be added?

     

    Thanks!

    If you have plenty of fuel to return than you should try seeing if you have enough delta v for 200 or even 250 tons. 

    On a technical basis, have you taken into account that the bfr uses methalox fuel which has an entire different density than rp1? I haven’t really looked into the density of methane but I believe it’s less dense than RP-1 meaning you need more tank space to carry the same amount of fuel.

    i suppose what it comes down to is I KNOW the BFR is currently far to overpowered. But you are telling me it should be more powerful? I just don’t get it man. I understand that according to the size of the tank there should more fuel but if add more fuel I only make the problem worse. So in mind any suggestion to change the fuel has to included changes in thrust, isp, & dry mass as well. I mean, I designed the thing from a cylinder. I drew it’s textures. I tested and wrote it’s configs. I balanced it. Nobody knows this bfr better than I do. In all honesty I don’t get much time to actually play the game but last time I flew the bfr the only thing I could think of was I need to figure out a way to nerf the power on this thing.

    if anyone thinks the bfr should be more powerful put in a word for eskimo22. If you agree with me and think the bfr could stand to loose some power just don’t say anything and let me be in peace:cool: please do click like if you are as tired of this same  old conversation as I am. I find myself repeating myself over and over saying the same thing but somehow I keep expecting an different outcome....????? 

    Thanks man! At the moment I don't have a heat shield for the 2.5m dragon sorry about that. I will keep that in mind in the future. I'm a little fuzzy on the direction this mod is currently headed so I cant give any specific details but I will do something to address that.

    And landing gear on the capsule like it's bigger brother!

     

    Thanks!
