Modding Monday: Kronal Vessel Viewer!

[SQUAD]

 

This is a plugin that creates blue-print-like images from the #KSP Editor (VAB/SPH). As featured in Scott Manley’s Video. Originally by @kronal, later forked by @bigorangemachine, now being maintained by @linuxgurugamer. 

 

This lets you make images such as the following:

Don't forget the RPM integration!

This looks cool!

[Tyko]

It's back! so awesome!

Squad, at least credit the original author @kronal and maybe even the guy who used to maintain it @bigorangemachine. The original author is in the name of the mod for christ sakes.

EDIT: To be clear, I greatly appreciate @linuxgurugamer's maintenance of this mod - hell, I was one of the ones that asked him to. But this habit of Squad (and actually, pretty much any KSP 'mod of the week' spotlight) not even bothering to do the most basic research or crediting of past authors for their work is getting really damn old.

@SQUAD This mod was created by @kronal. Please be better with acknowledging the right creators instead of just copying/ pasting the first paragraph of OPs

[linuxgurugamer]

While I did a lot of work getting it working again, and added the stock fairings, I did not write this mod.  Please provide credit where credit is due.

Thanks LGG. To be clear, you absolutely deserve credit for getting the mod working again. My ire is directed at Squad, which historically has done a poor job of doing anything more than the most cursory of research for these posts.

I understand.  this is the 2nd time a mod I've picked up has gotten here.  One day I'd like one of my mods to be highlighted

[Red Iron Crown]

Apologies to the authors who weren't mentioned, they've been added to the OP.

Oh yes.

If you have RPM installed you can look at Kronal views on your internal monitors. As well as scansat maps, VesselView displays, DPAI info and possibly others.

Just came to post support for Kronal Vessel Viewer and a more `daily` kerbal news.

These, I knew, but KVV is a new to me!

I have to say it`s one of the less obvious uses for RPM, not really much use in the game if you know what I mean, unlike ScanSat, VV, or DPAI.

Such an old mod! Also, ironic that the indicated picture is no longer possible in the latest version of KVV..

 whom ever is working on this now can we have back the choice to change the background colour?
