    Hello, can you please tell what is "RNModules.dll" used for? i deleted folders (probes) i don't need i just kept Voyager 1/2 and Juno so if it;s useless for them can i delete it?

    it's used for COM offset on certain parts and landing engines on soyuz. It's not used at all on voyager or juno so you can delete it if you just have those.

    yaay favourite mod is back in 1.2! Curious, the cost of modules seems to be off for R7. I had it installed with CKAN, then uninstalled it there, deleted files, installed in manually, same issue...

    a Venier engine seems to cost 12500, which sounds realistic in $ but not in KSP money...

    // --- editor parameters ---
    TechRequired = generalRocketry
    entryCost = 70
    cost = 12500
    category = Propulsion
    subcategory = 0
    title = R7 Vernier Engine
    manufacturer = RN Industries
    description = Vernier engine for use on the booster and core stages of the R7 rocket. Attach in 2X symmetry!

     

    Everything foor the R7 seems to cost 12500 ... Am i doing something wrong? I dont use RO/RP0 (since they are not ready)

    Well of course the cost is off, I have stated so many times I've lost count that I neither support, nor care at ALL about career mode. I copy-pasted all the cost values so the parts would load in game. I have asked so many times if someone wants to configure the costs for career mode but nobody ever wants to help.

    I find it hard to believe you have ever used this mod before and only just NOW notice that the costs are wrong, they have been that way since I first released the pack and I've never changed them...

    If you want to fix the costs make a PR on the github and I'll include it in the next release, otherwise you'll just have to live with it. It looks like I'll need to add a note about this to the OP since I get asked this same question so often(not like anyone reads the OP though right).

    Is there a build manual somewhere? The mod works fine but I can't seem to make all the parts for the Galileo atmospheric probe that goes under the main craft together and one says to eject before Jool with no other context so I find it a little confusing or I could just be looking at it and making it harder then it really is.

    It comes with craft files....If you don't use those I can't help you.

    Pretty kool, though yo are going to have problems with Russian players.

    No offense intended.

    what does that even mean? Are you saying Russians will be insulted that this is a US pack? Why should they be, I have several soviet packs also available. And even if they were upset for some unknown reason, why would I even care?

    Any chance of making the vernier engines capable of yaw? It's very difficult to do the ascent with just pitch and roll control.

    Well I would say it is considering you are installing them on the rocket incorrectly. The verniers only gimbal on ONE axis as they do IRL. You are supposed to install them in pairs rotated 90 degrees....This is a well known and simple to do fact....

    If the parts rotated on all axis and you installed them in 4x symmetry, they would clip through the mesh....

    Look at the engines here and you can clearly see they only move on a single axis.......

    That's why I have a maintenance team to keep everything working. :wink:

    It's not like I haven't asked for help. I've been looking for stock config maintainers for 3 years. Nobody on this forum wants to help anyone, they just want to take take take.... more free stuff, more more more.... without giving anything back to the community, then complain about it.

    @Jim123 You obviously haven't been looking very hard then. There are plenty of mods with several hundred parts. I have 463 parts in my mods alone so far, I'm sure there are mods with more. This isn't even counting the parts in the other mods I maintain(like FASA which has several hundred more). @Streetwind is right though, nobody wants to maintain a ridiculous amount of parts, it's so time consuming for me I am beginning to no longer have the time to even make new parts. I'd be willing to say that at around 500 parts, the time it takes to maintain and update the parts is longer than most people have available to actually produce new content.

    [1.7.2] KK Launchers - Delta, Atlas Pack

    If you don't mind me ruining it, I know there will be the active and future launchers, AKA, Atlas V, Delta II (maybe?), Delta IV, and Vulcan. Can't see them having any other older launchers as they weren't technically under ULA.

    Yes seeing as how it is a "ULA" pack, it would stand to reason that only rockets that were built by the major companies after the conglomerate was formed would be in the pack because if not then it would not be a "ULA" pack. ULA doesn't have many rockets, so it's not that hard to guess what's in it, especially since EJ has already shown it on stream several times.

    Adding ignitions to engines post launch (recovered 1st stages)

    in KSP1 Mods Discussions

    Posted · Edited by raidernick

    The ignitions are not a resource(although they may USE a resource). They are defined in the cfg and stored in the persistent file as far as I know. There is no way to edit this in game and no mod I'm aware of that does this as it is a realfuels function. By definition, a reusable engine would have multiple restarts(or near infinite restarts) to begin with. If the engines you are using only have one, it means they are only MEANT to be used once, because these engines are irreparably damaged during flight even before being destroyed in the ocean(or in the tundra in Kazakhstan). The only real option I see here is to either use an engine that has many/near infinite restarts as would be the case IRL, or edit the configs to add infinite restarts to the engine.

    Amazing mod, hope you don't mind if i leave a few suggestions for the future! (Feel free to disregard)

    Lunar Reconnaissance orbiter, Mars Reconnaissance orbiter, Phoenix Mars lander, Mars exploration rovers (plus airbags if possible), Mars science laboratory, MAVEN and LCROSS 

     

     

    All of those are already modeled and on the back burner except the phoenix lander and the MER's since I don't do rovers or landers that have already been done before. I DID however start working on a viking, the lander is pretty much done but I haven't had time to do the orbital module.
