If you do not know who Raptor9 is, he was one of the best KSP craft builders. His rockets/planes/stations were very capable and easy to use. Sadly, as of December 20th 2022, his crafts are no longer available. He was a great helper for many people, including me, who has not found an archive for his crafts. This is where we come in. Together, we can create something similar to Raptor9's massive catalouge. The requirements are: Kronal Vessel Viewer (KVV) is required to submit crafts. This mod allows you to take blueprint-like screenshots of your rockets while in the VAB Rockets must be tested to confirm that they can complete their specified missions without regilar interruption or failure. Part mods are allowed, but not recommended. The only one I will use is ReStock+. If you do decide to use part mods, please look if the parts are somewhat stock or restock-like. Non-stocklike parts are still allowed, but not recommended at all. Crafts by me will be coming to this post shortly after being posted.

Continuation of a small mod called "Show All Fuels" by Coffeeman. Download from Spacedock: http://spacedock.info/mod/1031/Show All Fuels Continued By Default, KSP will only show one resource gauge next to an engine icon in the staging. For normal liquid fuel engines, it only shows a liquid fuel gauge, even though the engine uses both liquid fuel and oxidizer. This mod forces both fuel gauges to show up. Features liquid fuel engines show liquid fuel gauges oxidizer gauges Jet engines show liquid fuel gauges air intake gauges Ion Engines show Xenon Gas gauges Electricity gauges Engines that work for the Real Fuels mods will show all the fuels that they are using. As you can guess, this is a must have mod for Space planes that switch fuel systems, and then you run out of oxidizer or liquid fuel before the other fuel runs out.

Is is possible to create a new mod that is similar to an old one, because the old one is not available and the author is not responding? Of course, it would not have the same textures and features, but just a similar idea. Just Wondering.

Benjamin Kerman's Welding Supply Co. in cooperation with Instell Incorporated proudly presents: Instell Incorporated Experimental Technologies Continued Note: Not all values listed in screenshots are correct DOWNLOAD REMOVED DUE TO NEW EULA Original Thread We at Instell Incorporated pride ourselves in customer satisfaction. We wish to give our customers only the greatest and most fashionable ways to ride their reusable ICBMs. Our engineers are ready and eager to work on any project that can get them close to the liquid oxygen again. Here at Instell we have only the best of experimental technologies, because finished products are just too mainstream. Why spend precious funds on testing when the customer can do it for you? At Instell we believe in shooting for the moon, and even if we miss, our craft melted on the way up. SCRAMJET ENGINES! New from Instell, the Semi Combustible Ramjet. Have you ever thought that stuffing air and fuel into a tube until it exploded was a bad idea? We did, but we kept trying anyway until we figured out that shoving more air in makes it explode out the back of the tube! [WARNING - Sharp edges, high temperatures, and ludicrous G forces may cause death, dismemberment, and or hallucination] We at instell incorporated are proud to offer a selection of two wonderful scramjets: XE-101 and the XE-202. Both are scramjets and are built to propel your spaceplane to hypersonic speeds. They become more powerful and efficient the higher they are and the faster they go. Advantages of scramjets: Very efficient at high speeds/altitudes Very light Can function at very high altutudes Is the physical representation of acceleration Does not require intake hogging However it poses a couple of challenges: Must be going past mach 3 to function Engines have a tendency to cause other parts to overheat due to atmospheric heating. Engines are more efficient in the upper atmosphere ELECTRIC ENGINES! Introducing the XE-303/E electronic turbofan engine! This engine is considerably more simple to use than our Scramjets. This engine is excellent for subsonic crafts, especially those on other planets. Since it doesn't rely on combustion to power its turbine, it will run in any atmosphere. It's perfect for aircraft transports on other planets! Advantages: Can run in any atmosphere Small onboard battery supply Cheaper than a traditional basic jet Very quiet Makes for a great air conditioner in a pinch Disadvantages: Cannot go above Mach 1 Can only be radially attached A bit bulky PULSE DETONATION ENGINES! Introducing Instell's latest work of mad science: The XE-404 Pulse Detonation Engine! This engine is the perfect companion to the XE-101 and 202. It has a maximum speed of mach 6 and sounds like a very, very loud and explosive jackhammer. Despite using the most advanced coolant systems that Jeb could find in his junkyard, this engine still has a tendency to overheat, so watch out! Advantages: Can easily take a SCRAMjet up to the required speed. Has a speed ceiling of mach 6. Operates well in the same flight conditions as a TurboRamJet. Can cook a burger in 6 seconds flat. Disadvantages: LOUD!! Cannot reach as high of an altitude as the XE-101 and 202 Can overheat easily Changelog *** v.2.1 *** * Added the "M.O.I.S.T." oxidizer radiator * Tweaked some values *** v.2.0 *** * Updated for 1.3 * Changed some strange values * Tweaked scale of hyperintake and inline SCRAMjet * Fixed things up
