Anyone have suggestions for thermal management solutions? I've built a mining/refinery base on the Mun. In the process I discovered that if a radiator isn't attached to the same part the drill is attached to, it won't regulate temperature. As such, I've had to reconfigure my base as follows: attached 3 drills to a K&K Cross-way, placed a Titanium Convector Radiator Inline 1/2 from KSP:IE on the top node of the Crossway, stacked a 2.5m ISRU on top of the radiator. I'd originally planned to have everything much more linear and lower to the ground, with 3 drills on a cross way, an ore tank on top, and radial radiators on the ore tank to cool everything. Yet, due to the lack of ability to transfer heat from the drills, to the cross way, to the ore tank, and then the radiators, this solution didn't work. I also discovered that without landing legs, i needed to anchor the thing to the surface with CB1 blocks and Pivoting Joints to prevent it from physics jumping every time i loaded the base. You can see one block has moved partially under the base due to physics shifts and what not over subsequent loads into the base. Modified Base Original Design
