I can't be the only one who has a problem with the KJR Mods in 1.11 Most of my Crafts, especially with Mod parts wobble around like stupid, no matter which KJR version I take. I also tried Autostrut but it has almost no effect at all, worse than the KJR mods. It also seems like nobody continues the KJR mods anymore and I couldnt do it myself. So is there anyone out there working on a new version? I just want to play KSP peacefully again without being annoyed by constant Kraken effect.

Tired of rockets collapsing when physics initializes, but it would be fine if physics didn't start with a jerk? Irritated launch clamps can twist your rocket apart when physics starts for no apparent reason? Need more joint stiffness because you're playing Real Solar System and the stock joints just don't cut it? Then you need KERBAL JOINT REINFORCEMENT! Lessen the effects of physics glitches and get back to designing rockets to handle flight, not to handle the forces applied when the game loads. EXCITING FEATURES! Physics Easing Slowly dials up external forces (gravity, centrifugal, coriolis) when on the surface of a planet, reducing the initial stress during loading All parts and joints are strengthened heavily during physics loading (coming off of rails) to prevent Kraken attacks on ships Launch Clamp Easing Prevents launch clamps from shifting on load, which could destroy the vehicle on the pad Increase stiffness and strengths of connections Larger parts will have stiffer connections to balance their larger masses / sizes Sequential parts in a stack will be connected with a stiff, but weak connection to add even more stiffness and counteract wobble Stiffen interstage connections Parts connected to a decoupler will be connected to each other, reducing flex at the connection to reasonable levels Stiffen launch clamp connections Less vehicle movement on vessel initialization Warning: may cause spontaneous rocket disintegration if rocket is too large and over-constrained (far too many launch clamps; their connections will fight each other and give rise to phantom forces) Option to make connections fail at lower forces to maintain difficulty in launching More documentation and changelog available in the README file.

This isn't a question, but win64 is no longer locked based on the apparent stability that I've noticed in testing. It will be relocked if and only if it proves to be crashtastic just as before and the support workload grows to the levels they were at previously. Currently I do not anticipate the need to relock on win64 at any time in the future.

Hello! I use KSP 1.3.1 with RSS, FAR and KJR and a few other mods. I want my game to be as realistic as possible. I don't use Realism Overhaul because it doesn't support every mod I have. I've made an airliner that is a little smaller than the Airbus A318. I tweaked Squad engines to get rid of fuel and use Electric Charge instead. It uses SXT and some other mods. I just want to have flutter to make it even more realistic. I disabled autostrut and rigid attachment on the wings and there's still no flutter. I'm pretty sure it's because of KJR. I'm not sure it is a good idea to uninstall KJR because I'm afraid structural failures will happen. Is it a good idea to uninstall KJR? How can I get realistic flutter on my wings? Thanks

Probably a good idea to use KJR for this, as the propeller blades have a tendency to cause a critical existence failure if they collide. Retrofitted to fly without KJR, but a smaller version which requires KJR is available as well. Presenting the new, affordable, and actually controllable helicopter for the whole family! The AutoGyro MKIII is designed for short-distance excursions to nearby dictatorships scenic spots. It isn't a VTOL due to the finicky nature of controlling those (and a fair measure of laziness), but it is a STOL, requiring only to attain a forwards velocity of 25/35 m/s to take off (Depending on fuel load). With a triple control scheme, you can fine tune each individual engine to your heart's desire. In case you're dozing off, here are some images to keep you here: Specifications: Weight: 28(?) metric tons wet mass 260 parts, made for KSP 1.1.2 64-bit 26 meters long, 47 meters wide.
