ThatGuyWithALongUsername 1,178 Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 I voted no because it is too non stockalike. The probe core and panels I could see fitting in but the telescope doesn't look kerbal enough. Maybe with a different colour scheme.Yeah, it could use a new paint job. But that doesn't mean that some form of it shouldn't be stock. Link to post Share on other sites

The probe core and panels I could see fitting in but the telescope doesn't look kerbal enough. Maybe with a different colour scheme.Almost all of RoverDude's parts are non stockalike, even the ones in the game. So maybe it is part of the new stockalike? Link to post Share on other sites
algeo 11 Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Yeah, it could use a new paint job. But that doesn't mean that some form of it shouldn't be stock.Just recoloring it to look a bit more "kerbal" and fit better with the stock parts shouldn't be too difficult. Though I wouldn't actually be against some variation in the stock parts. Link to post Share on other sites
RogalDorn 11 Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Replicated the mission yesterday from the payload of my Shuttle, Felt awesome when the contract came up and I was already in position to map satelites in Kerbin's orbit. Great addition to the game for sure because it made me feel like I had done a "Good Thing" with my space program instead of the usual science because SCIENCE motivations...

Astrofox 240 Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 GO STOCK!Whoo!Alright, but in all seriousness, KSP really needed a space telescope. Link to post Share on other sites

legoclone09 2,364 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Go stock! I agree so much! I think that it looks good in stock, and the HECS-2 is amazing for 2.5m ships when in a service bay. OX-STAT XL is a lifesaver, telescope fun and the HG-55 antenna looks awesome. Link to post Share on other sites
TYRT 15 Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 I think every "official mod" should be stock. They are from family! Indirect. Or not. Link to post Share on other sites

almagnus1 60 Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 What's wrong with the Asteroid Day mod being a mod? Link to post Share on other sites
Sharpy 1,977 Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 I don't care much about the telescope and the core, but the game sorely lacks larger fixed panels. Link to post Share on other sites
Superfluous J 15,110 Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 What's wrong with the Asteroid Day mod being a mod?It'll eventually break when they update the game but not the mod. Or, at least, it'll require a redownload.Any ships using the parts won't be "stock" even though they're only using Squad parts. Link to post Share on other sites

For example:Larger rovers, where you don't want to spam RTGs or smaller panels.done. Especially the antenna.

AviatorTrainman 3 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Does it work in 1.0.2?Yes, I use 1.0.2 and all mods designed for 1.0.x work for me. Link to post Share on other sites
DuoDex 1,471 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 It's a lovely mod, but I don't think it belongs in stock. In my opinion, several of the awesome mechanics from it should be made stock, where they would mesh beautifully with other features to be detailed in my upcoming career suggestions/overhaul/ragepost thread.

It would be a nice option though and completely optional on the mod maker's part anyway. But because of Squad's insistence on not supporting Workshop, even modders who might like to use it can't =/ Link to post Share on other sites
