I actually can't replicate this. Is Airplane Plus the only mod installed? I'm trying my best to get out of the smaller bulkheads. We'll see

lmao It's still working though, this one has no plugins so no need of updating at all unless Squad decides to change the game itself (like wheels). I'll still update it though, I just prioritized AirplanePlus. I'll fix things then.

Yes, I haven't abandoned it. It's should still work on the current version. @damonvv I apparently need to tag someone.

Probably not, at least right now it's probably not going to happen. That's an old version, due to overlapping audios when you start and stop immediately, I decided to shorten the sounds, and yes, it will keep spinning until it eventually stops, the sounds aren't connected to the animation and I try my best to match them on most engines. Confirmed. I think this is a model problem that can be fixed by nodes but I'd prefer to fix it with unity if I did (not at this very moment). Sorry about this I exaggerated them a bit, yeah. I made the exhaust the size of the entire muffler instead to keep the general shape. Though the top of the cone is supposed to taper down, I didn't, due to imitation of stock tail ends, I just tapered the bottom gently instead. Edit: @GaponeDetails?

@panzerknack That is exactly the case I was talking about, yes. And @neistridlar is right, having a duplicate part is the only way, and having it flipped other side. @Bottle Rocketeer 500 On the current patch? It shouldn't have any difference now... I need to check it again. @buddysWorld Yeah, it looks like the Mk3, which will be developed sooner or later, it's just a matter of time. Also, thanks to the mod who edited my OP, it's back to normal now.

Release 25 I updated. Finally. But I encountered same problem when I edited the OP as when I last updated Grounded too. I just put in an image and youtube link. I'll need to report the OP. Until then, I apologize for any inconvenience, if you are inconvenienced. I'll post the video and screenshot here. It's not a huge update, most of the time inbetween was waiting, but here it is. Here's the changelog: Added Size 2 Non-Commercial Cockpit based on C-130 Hercules Added Size 1 100-KE Auxiliary Power Engine based on Honeywell RE-100 and RE-220 APUs Added Size 1.5 220-KE Auxiliary Power Engine based on Honeywell RE-220 APU Added Size 2 131-9K Auxiliary Power Engine based on Honeywell 131-9A APU - Fixed issue where obsolete texture paths on landing gears cause NREs Fixed issue where Kerbal Standard has a missing title Fixed some landing gears having omitted aerodynamic changes when deployed/undeployed - Updated for 1.6.x Screenshots: Here's the APU in action, the electricity isn't actually used to power the gears, APUs have small thrust in it. The APU is really mostly experimental. If any drastic change is needed, don't be afraid to put it in here. I hope you all enjoy, I'm not so sure if the update is needed since the pack works regardless anyway. But here it is. I'll go report the OP now.

That matchRotation is a mechanic for animation and gear retracting, it has nothing to do with the entire part's attachment. Also, whatever flipping, or sinking, jumping of aircraft due to landing gear is not my fault but Squad's constant overhauling of the wheels and physics. I'm testing dev version of APP on 1.6 with old mods right now, and I can conclude (and mostly predict as I use only PRE) that any physics easing mod will fix it, such as World Stabilizer or from the Physics Range Extender. Regarding "sidegear" forcing only one orientation, you may take it for granted but I've studied that technique for years (not really, months probably). It's a legendary Squad dev magic, I only imparted such knowledge with few people... because only few people ask. But it's used to mirror parts properly - let me elaborate: If you put parts mirrored in SPH w/o this special config, it will attach the same thing on the other side as if it was rotated 180 degrees. This means the "bottom" part will face opposite side on the bulkhead [ ^Ov ] the arrows represent the orientation of the "bottom" which could be wheels as an example. At least the config fixes this by locking the bottom down, and the front forward, only mirroring the sides, thus it always faces the same direction regardless of rotation. About the 1.6 version, despite my constant lethargy and denial of the fact that I just can't make top notch quality content, I'm almost there Here, I'll show one picture.

This is just not possible if you want the hovering to be implemented with it, sadly. Firespitter can only handle one rotor in the center of mass to be able to hover properly.

@TMasterson5I've updated the OP, tweakscale compatibility is now linked to your OP. Also, yes! I'm quite happy the cockpit I left here a few posts ago is working right for kerbal scale. Testing is going good. Got 3 more parts in, just need to texture the IVA and config works will be next. In actuality, that cockpit isn't as good as the 3 new parts I'm going to add because it was made in 2018 where it was subject to my practice of improving polygons. No teasers yet, You'll all know once the parts are ready to be released. Believe, it's under development (unless you're on a certain discord channel which must not be named).

I've not been too active during that waiting time on 1.5, but now I'll be developing slowly. Earlier releases I could output stuff in a week or so. Textures weren't a problem, especially models. Now I'm trying to reduce Ngons, trying to have better UVs, etc. I'm planning to use normals too, we'll see, really. I'm in the middle of development right now so I don't have much visual teasers yet. I'm just a self taught modeler and these things, I learn as I develop my mods, especially this one, and it's great.

I think it was for DMP? I uhhh, I haven't tested the mod on 1.6 as I'm working for an actual patch for this one. Also, I was asking about what people are trying to carry on such huge planes jokingly I haven't even entered Mk3 size yet. I want to but aaah, I want to improve everything existing. Squad is already doing it.

What on Kerbin are people trying to carry? Anyway, I do have parts to come on the next update that I'm determined to work on after the holidays pass. Though, I'm thinking of pausing part additions for now to revisit everything. Not balancing, but fixing, revamping, possibly. I'm still thinking on it, though.

Oh, good god. At least they don't break mods every single update. Thanks for this though, at least I'm not gonna wait indefinitely knowing that they're gonna do this.

Is this referring to the really old dev parts I made? I couldn't think of a better way of implementing 2.5m sized seaplane parts so that's a little bit on the negative side. But finally, KSP is in a new version. Hope this one stays. Just need to make one more model for the next release. Though I still need to texture and import them after that.

If only Kerbals weren't so wide

It's not impossible, it's just more roundabout in doing things. Grounded mostly either only has textures switched or the textures switch with the mesh. It's just more intuitive right now to use FS, because it's mesh and texture are independent from each other in switching. I'd switch to stock part variant even if it's just a little more complicated if almost the entire arsenal of engines weren't dependent on Firespitter, the sounds, the engine configurations. Aside from the fact that the stock part variant switch will take a longer time to make, contrary to FS, just check the ModulePartVariants, compare them to both FStextureSwitch2 and FSmeshSwitch. The entire two modules are shorter than a simple texture or partswitch from stock ModulePartVariants. Don't get me wrong, I made Grounded as it is because I am devoted to using the least plug-ins as I can. Just in APP, a lot of things are just to connected to FS, it's not just the texture and mesh switching. I'd break out of FS if I could either switch to a more reliable single plug-in to replace everything it does and I've been contacted by a few mod authors already about this - I explained and nothing still so far. If stock becomes more capable, perhaps one day it's capable to be plug-in free.

Sure other sizes are possible, tweakscale would be a bit redundant though.

Nope, stock part switch is very limited.

TCA Doesn't work with FSModules, the author himself was here before already. I'll quote myself on the Thr Keys and State:

Nothing major recently. I paused for a bit, until the end of the month because Im playing another game, though it started with me waiting for KSP to settle on a version at least. But the most developed so far is only this cockpit: I have another model, and that has IVA already but hasn't gone testing yet nor implemented.

I think these are newly added things on Agents. I don't remember those being needed before. Thanks again.

@kyklop The design difference is actually intended. May I ask what your reason is for wanting to scale it perfectly with stock? If it's to be faithful and make a replica, I do understand. Though the current design has a purpose instead of being faithful. The G1 size is actually 1.25m so it makes loading to a 2.5m+ hull possible. Aside from that. The G1 widebody on the other hand is actually 1.875m. It has even less uses but it's just a slight change to the 1.25m as it's 0.625m * 3. This was done to make the chassis look closer to stock, but not to replicate it. If I make changes on these chassis numbers, all those framework I have will fall apart. It's doable, It's done by Lack's SXT, I'm not a hundred percent sure if it's 1:1 to stock though (and it's less modular). One last, minor thing is that it also needs to look like a car aside from looking stock-a-like, it's modular, after all.

Got it. I'll check it. Thank you.

Which part is this? I don't understand the error, isn't herculesgeartex in AirplanePlus\Parts\Wheel\sharedgear?
