    Take this opportunity to lobby again for the LRV's foldable part to match the LM descent stage for the J-series mission

    [...] Similarly, rovers in KSP 1 suuuuuuck to make parts for, so I'm holding off on those for now - but we have a bunch of different rover designs we can attempt in KSP2.

    [...] 4) See above, I'd like to hold off on making rovers until KSP2, since the implementation of wheels hopefully won't be... badS but without the bad if you know what I mean. I really hope you can have stupidly flexible suspension and proper traction like in the trailer.

    Minor? During reentry I was quick enough to enable the "ignore heat cheat" (which luckily is possible in pause menu) to avoid the death of 3 Kerbals, as the pod got hotter than the heatshield in a matter of seconds.
    Without DRE, without FAR, on JNSQ 10x.

    Have you tried buffing the temperature tolerance in an MM patch or the part's config?

  3. The venerable Notantares "Big Khleb" fills a unique niche among part mod pods - 6 crew in a 1.875m capsule. Unfortunately, its art is growing long in the tooth compared to newer mods and revamps. I took it upon myself to build its spiritual successor(s): the Shortbow and Longbow 3- and 6-crew command modules, respectively. (Screenshots are of the 6-victim crew Longbow)

    It currently stands 1.4m tall with a 1.875m diameter bottom and .9375m top. The tunnel in the top is .625m to match smaller ports. Parachutes (coming later) will fill the void between the tunnel and inner aeroshell.

    Planned:
    Archer-3 'Shortbow' Command Pod (4 main windows)

    Archer-6 'Longbow' Command Pod (6 main windows)

    Archer-DP Drogue Parachute

    Archer-MP Main Parachute(s)

    Archer-HS 1.875m Heat Shield (integrated airbags)

    TAC-Life Support compatibility patches (if anyone makes Kerbalism configs the capsules should be quite cramped)

    Basic IVAs

    .9375m docking port (may redistribute (with permission) Benjee10's Habtech port)

    The beast waits in its lair...

    From top -> down:

    - Leo Command module with a heatshield rated for Iota re-entry (GPP)

    - 1.25m lab module and scientific equipment including a "Bloodhound" camera

    - Propulsion module with solar array and engines

    - LR-87 (LH2) for Iota departure

    - Core booster with 1 E-1 and 2 LR-101 verniers

    - 4 LRBs with 1 E-1 engine each
